"Open wide please!"

I attended the hospital today to have a wisdom tooth extracted under local anaesthetic. I was referred to the hospital by my dentist as I am extremely nervous due to a very bad experience in my youth! I cannot praise the staff highly enough; from the receptionist to the dentist - so friendly, reassuring and patient. The lovely nurse even asked my husband if he wanted to come in with me as I was in such a state. He held my hand throughout! Three nurses and the dentist treated me with such kindness and care; it was all over in no time with no pain at all. Thank you so much.

Yes I did wait 3 months for the appointment but I wasn't in pain and I was reassured at my first appointment that the procedure would be carried out my the same dentist to help combat my nerves. I'm sure after today's experience that I will not be such a baby if I need another procedure!

Thank you again for your kindness, patience and expertise.
