    Hi @dawnyb19 welcome to the community. I'm so sorry to read this - you need to be able to eat. I'd suggest contacting 111 if you feel it's urgent. I've also added the link to the NHS website if you wanted some more information.

    How can I access an NHS dentist in an emergency or out of hours? - NHS

    I hope they can get you sorted swiftly.

    Best wishes,

    Holly.

    Bless you @dawnyb19 I can't imagine how you must be feeling. Hopefully if you can get to see a Dentist, it's a positive step towards getting you eating again, and feeling more confident and positive about socialising.

    And if you ever want to talk, there are many kind and friendly members on this forum. 🙂
