You don’t even know what the treatment is or what the treatment offered is but it’s a ‘like for like’. Laughable. As I said before there’s different materials, different labs, different techniques for every thing and some won’t be available on the NHS. Even when something is offered privately different types of crown will have a different price.


At the end of the day the consumption of food, which teeth are designed for, is basically the same regardless of labs, dental techniques, materials and cost. If you pay £250 or £1,700 for treatment the food we consume will not know the difference.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

My Dentist is the Dental Design Studio on Grimsby Road, formally run by the brilliant doctor Bull and his wife. I have all my teeth and they are in good contrition. In over 35 years as a patient there I’ve always had some kind of scale and polish.
But this time she just poked at my teeth for a couple of minutes then said ‘good job your teeth are great’ that was it! I didn’t even get to rinse out with the pink mouth wash stuff.
I think for £21.80 they could factor in a scale and polish as part of a basic check up, or have times changed if you’re teeth are ok that’s it?

They do. I get a scale and polish with my basic check up, but not every time I go. Only if my dentist deems it necessary, which isn't very often.

Yes


I wasn't sure

I used to know both Ian and his brother Keith indirectly through an ex girlfriend who worked there as a dental nurse

I've just noticed that there was a bit of a to-do a few years back with them.... not very good publicity really

I avoid the dentist for the very reason I hate having a scale and polish. Teeth bloody hurt after that. The only upside is that the one I usually see is an attractive (East European) woman who has a ‘you naughty boy’ tone when she tells me to floss more 😁.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
