My daughter who is an adult has terrible toothache and she lives in Brighton. Season ticket holder etc. However, been on the phone constantly and cannot find any dentist who is working at present and can do a filling. It seems none has PPE. All she has managed so far is to get some antibiotics. Can anyone help on NSC please. The pain is wearing her down.

Could try to ring the emergency dentist at Lewes Vic Hospital https://www.esht.nhs.uk/service/emergency-dental-service/ to see if they can help

Crawley has a emergency walk in dentist, or at least they did a few years back, might be worth a search to see if they can help.

Also, phone 111 and explain, they can then find an emergency one for you

Has she lost a filling? There are some great temporary filling kits that you can get from a chemist. This has helped me in the past.

There used to be an emergency dentist at Worthing hospital. Not sure if it is still running, but worth a try.
Still running, used it last month

There are a few types of kit and I had exactly the same problem with a filling coming out with one, it was a white stick where you broke a piece off and moulded it. Absolute rubbish but there is a cement kit which is brilliant, you put a couple of drops of water on the cement, mix and apply. I had a filling that lasted over a month before I got to see a dentist.
I’ve recently had similar issues, could be an abscess that require anti biotechs that a dentist will prescribe, definitely gargle with salt, cosine for the pain and the expensive mouth wash can’t think of it’s name, begins with C from pharmacy or super market helped me, she has my sympathy

I've had toothache for the last 3 weeks. The other useful tip, my dentist passed on, is to clean teeth with toothpaste but not rinse. Can concur also that mouthwashes (commercial) and the simple water + salt also help a lot. It comes and goes. Luckily Ok at moment and not gulping down painkillers like a packet Haribo.. Toothache really is the worst pain. you have my sympathy .

Is it Corsodyl?
Yep the very one, I was due to have the tooth extracted after I finished the penicillin but that appointment got canx. Thankfuly the pain from the abscess has gone for the time being.

I got an abscess on the tooth beside the one I had just had root canal and a crown on two days later. Absolute ******* and one side of my face swelled up making me look like the Elephant man. Absolute agony for three days before the antibiotics kicked in. No pain like tooth pain. This was a month after cataract surgery resulted in retinal tears a week later. This was March last year....then a year later Coronavirus and lockdown. Not looking forward to next March!
