Sore tooth

TheCatWoman

I've got to go to the dentist again tomorrow, I'm facing a dilema, I think it might need a root canal filling and those are over £600, even a normal filling is around £250, its cheaper to have a tooth removed at £190, but I'm starting to run out of teeth!

The dentist herself is really good and the whole practice is very ASC friendly, but the cost!!! It's not like there's anywhere cheaper either, they all charge the same, should this be another case for government investigation? There's no NHS dentists left on the island now, so it's not like we have a choice, it's just so wrong.

  • Some how I don't think the government would care too much.

    I don't know whether it's helpful but my dentist allows to pay in installments. I know that doesn't reduce the cost but at least helps to make it manageable. Could be worth asking about?

    Dentistry work is not fun, sorry you are having to deal with that.
