Yeah. A receptionist at a practice in the next village told me this morning.

Oh odd. My dentist is ok. Not sure that helps :lol: mum spent like thousands there the past few months.so she not happy :lol: :roll:

Problem is as well, if you travel you could blow £200 on petrol anyway. :(

It would have to be by train as I don't drive. I'd spend £300 to sort something without the £1200 price tag.

Got tooth trouble so may disappear for a short while. Hoping it isn't too bad when the numbing wears off.

I hope your tooth is feeling better! Here's an old home remedy that may provide temporary relief: place a clove next to the tooth and leave it there. Of course you wouldn't want to fall asleep that way, lest you accidentally swallow, and I hope you find a good, affordable dentist you trust.

Beneath your Escape key, what is the purpose for the symbol that looks like a sideways "L", or a Tetris tile?

At that price you might want to consider making a short trip abroad for a dentist; quicker, better service and much cheaper. They usually speak better English than the ones in the UK also.

Sounds more like a crown type of job ? If it's a back one, have the bugger pulled out and don't bother.

£1200 seems a bit expensive to me, have you looked here at what charge bands there are for NHS dental treatment and what they cover:

NHS Dental charge bands

I know somebody who had a dental implant privately and it was about £2000, so that £1200 seems more like private than NHS.

If it's a broken tooth in need of a crown, make sure it doesn't get infected while you're shopping around! Rinse with hydrogen peroxide, rinse with water, and pack with coarse-grain salt. Let the salt do its work a while, then rinse it out with cold water.
If you've got a hole from a lost filling or broken tooth, chew up some pure mastic gum (Pistacia lentiscus) and pack it into the hole until you can get some professional help :)
Either that, or find an Atari hacker with a Dremel & Milliput to refurbish your chompers. :twisted:

Tone, you should get one of these and plug it into your Atari!

Yeah, when they've taken the root out.

They can save it. It's been patched for now. I only went in for a check up. was grateful they did what they did.
