The University Dental Hospital of Manchester will continue to provide an urgent service for our existing patients who are in active treatment at the Hospital and do not currently have a General Dental Practitioner. Patients will be assessed initially via a telephone triage and will only be seen if you meet the criteria listed below:
- Trauma including facial/oral laceration and or dental injuries that require urgent intervention (for example the knocking out of a permanent tooth)
- Swelling of the face or mouth that is significant or getting worse
- Severe locking of the jaw (Trismus)
- Oral or Dental conditions that are likely to make existing medical conditions worse such as diabetes.
- Oral medicine patients that are taking medication to suppress their immune system.
If you feel that your symptoms meet the above criteria please ring 0161 393 7730 or email dental.appointmentbooking@mft.nhs.uk and we will make arrangements for a clinical triage via telephone.
