How much does seeing a Dentist about a small toothache cost?

I think I feel a small toothache, so am wondering how much Im going to have to spend if it doesnt go away...?

a small fortune

Yeah I heard it would be, I heard a couple of hundred if you need a tooth out, that cant be true?

no, that is a bit much do you have a dentist yet

£20 if i can find the right size pliers, £15 if i cant and use the hammer.

Har har, how about.............................no?


I dont have a dentist yet, it may just be a sinus problem. I shoudnt really be drinking dairy milk but have been. Whups.

I went a few weeks ago and it cost me £40.

My regular dentist, who i havent been to in years, couldnt see me til late in the afternoon, and i was in agony with one wisdom tooth so i phoned around everywhere for someone who could see me straight away and i found someone. Apparently for them its a flat fee of £40 for consultation. I assume thats for patients and non patients.

Still, its pretty high if you ask me.
Mind you, i'm having all 4 wisdom teeth out in October and thats all done for free. But why the hell i have to wait 4 months for that i do not know

you are lucky to have found one, who would see you as a nonpatience i have been looking for a new dentist such we moved here 5 months ago, and still can not find one who has any room on there books

They only saw me cos it was an emergency though. I dont know if they'd have actually taken me on their books.

i see, i did get to see the emerancy dentist but the repair is only temp, but i can not get it fixed untill i find someone to take us all on, not a easy task

Thats not good at all

When i went, they filled the hole temporarily and gave me anti bios for the abcess but the stuff in the hole has come out now, so i'm preparing to have to go back soon when the pain starts again

What i dont get is that when i turned 18, the dentist who all the family have always gone to, starting treating me as a private patient. I had no choice about staying NHS or not

now that is not fair, as he was treating you on the nhs you should of been allowed to stay nhs,
i just want a dentist who is willing to see the kids on the nhs, but we are willing to go private if thats what we have to do to get seen

my old dentist chucked me off the list when he decided to go private, ive found a new nhs one now but i have to say is young and doesnt seem to be that experienced, i hate going to the dentist although me and the kids go every 6 months, i just cringe when i go, everything hurts

and lets not forget that light they instead in shinning in your eyes

mine uses all old stuff like a bloody drill thing for getting the plaque off your teeth which hurts

mine use a hammer and a pair of pliers, or thats what it feels like

i was stupid enough to use a bleaching agent from e-bay on my teeth, now ive got super sensitive teeth which are aching all the time, apparently this stuff damages the enamel so im always in pain and dont laugh easy

Aww rozza i wanted to do that and the dentist said it wasnt a good idea. Not trying to rub it in mind

I just loved it when he told me i should have white fillings instead of the usual ones cos they look better. Never mentioned that they're double the price of course. And anyway, who the hell is gonna see the damn things right at the back of my mouth?!

i've heard protein injections are good for that

ha ha very funny ive still got off white teeth bloody stuff didnt even work

try tippex, that will give you a beaming white smile

Do any actually work unless you pay hundreds or thousands?.. however much celebs pay

another cracker from FBF

that FBF guy is nearly as funny as FBG.

Nah i wont take the micky out of your teeth, i would of done and they were bright white like that slapper that was in the last celebrity big brother, was it jodie marsh?

Jodie Marsh? The woman with no bottom jaw?

maybe not but she has tried to make up for it in other ways

wish i'd become a dentist!

why that do you fancy the job, or just the money

Ya know who you go to see a house designers place and its all to pot, and mechanics always own a car that’s a banger, dog trainers have snappy aggressive dogs, what would you find at a Gynaecologists house?

omg now you have me thinking allsorts

Hehehe

snap dragon and venus fly trap plants on the way in

bit of both

I was going to do dentistry at Uni but the thought of being hundred of miles away from anyone I knew when I was newly 17 scared me so I didn't go for it! the fool that i was!

shame we need more dentists, why not look for a course now you never know there may be one nearer

nearest dentistry course is 120 miles away and that's not really practical tbh!

oh what a pity, do you think they may be a chance of moving nearer later, when you are not so tied down

Nah!

too old now!

I went to Liverpool from wales when I was 16 for a performing arts course, didnt know anyone.


Just do it!



Nike should pay me for that.

you are not to old you are still young

I feel old! Was too old to fill in a survey at college yesterday!!

hell you are still young you have years of work left yet.hell that doesn't sound good does it

no really, you can retrain when you have older and still have time to work for years think about it do the sums, don't let you dreams die, there is always time

Is It Safe?

is what safe, and welcome btw

I had to cough up £190 to a dentist this week ! ..Grrrrrr .

I so wish I'd become a dentist!

I disagree with dental fees. Once upon a time necessary dental care at our dentist surgery was free on the NHS. Then it was decided seemingly that teeth are not part of the human body though yet dental problems and infections can cause serious illness if left untreated. I never noticed any reduction in my tax bill, now there is no dentist in our town who will treat you unless you take out dental insurance of £14.99 per month.
That is my rant done, I have a toothche, a little heartache too.

Eartha

I should have been a dentist.

I pick my ass all the time . . .

My dentist has got a sick sense of humour. He always makes my appontments for 2.30.

For those of you who don't get it straight away. It's Tooth Hurty

i havent been to the dentist since i was 14 ive neva had even a filling and my teeth are perfect and pearly white
