Urgent dental appointments via NHS 111

Extra appointments are now available for people in Somerset who need urgent or unscheduled dental care – to request an urgent appointment, visit NHS111 or phone NHS 111.

Appointments are for urgent conditions including:
• Severe toothache: persistent and intense pain that cannot be managed with over-the-counter painkillers.
• Dental abscess: infection causing swelling, pain, and possibly fever.
• Broken or knocked-out tooth: trauma resulting in a fractured or completely dislodged tooth.
• Bleeding in mouth following a dental procedure or an injury that doesn’t stop by itself but can be self-controlled using local measures. Note that if bleeding cannot be self-controlled in any way, emergency care may be necessary.
• Swelling: significant swelling in the mouth or face that could indicate an infection.
• Fractured, loose or displaced fillings causing pain.
• Severe bleeding from gums, or acute conditions affecting other soft areas of the mouth (such as cheeks or tongue) which require urgent treatment.
• Other treatments may be available at the discretion of the dentist. These treatments may require extra visits and costs.

‼️ URGENT PATIENT INFORMATION: IT OUTAGE AFFECTING GP PRACTICES ‼️

Dear Patients,
Our practice, along with many other GP surgeries across the country, is currently experiencing significant service disruptions due to a national IT outage affecting our clinical systems.

What this means for you:
We have limited access to patient records, appointment scheduling, and electronic prescription processing.
Our online services (e.g., website forms, online booking via the NHS App) are also impacted and may be unavailable at this time.
Phone lines may be busier than usual, and you may experience delays.

How to get help:
If you have an appointment today, please attend as planned unless you are advised otherwise by the practice.
