    It's not that I was on the phone that long, but the other week my front tooth crown came out. I rang the dentist got told it's not an emergency. I need to ring 111. Which I did. Left a message, 111 dental rang me back, telling me it's not an emergency (I Know) and to ring the dentist. Went round this vicious endless loop a couple of times, actually went to the dentist in person as it's only just down the road. Receptionist told me I still have to ring 111! Spend all day on this now! Went home rang another dentist and they gave me an appointment for two days later. Thank you! :D:D:D
