However many common and debilitating issues can be successfully managed in primary care and Dr Crighton will work with patients, their doctors and their dentists to help patients without the need for a hospital wait. Dr Crighton's clinical areas of special interest include chronic non-dental facial pain, oral mucosal disease and Oral Medicine problems in children and he is happy to consider referrals from all medical and dental colleagues.
