Dental Problems

Your GP has little experience in dealing with dental problems. You should always consult a qualified dentist for ALL dental problems. If you do not have a NHS Dentist the PCT can assist you in finding one. Your doctor will not routinely issue antibiotics for dental problems without you first consulting a dentist.
