Dental Problems in General Practice


We are often faced in general practice with people suffering from painful teeth. A suspected dental abscess is the most common problem that frequents our duty doctor's screen. We are limited in how we can help. At most, if you are unable to make an urgent appointment to see a dentist, we can offer pain killers.

We are not able to give you antibiotics for dental problems. There are many reasons for this, including but not limited to;
  • We do not have the equipment or expertise to diagnose dental problems,
  • Our medical defence unions instruct us not to stray into managing dental problems.
  • You may well not need antibiotics. A clean up may suffice.

Dental Services


There are lots of dentists taking NHS patients in the Bristol area. To find your nearest use the NHS service finder on the nhs.uk website, the local CCG's dental services page or call 111. Most dentists will not see you with dental pain if you are not already registered with the practice. So do make sure to see a dentist regularly for check ups.
