Re: Dentistry
Oh Dear
My dentists secretary has now informed me that all my dental treatment must be carried out at our local hospital dental day clinic due to my having a TIA and the subsequent medication Warfrain
The treatment will be free of charge - it's a funny ole world - make no mistake about that

Re: Dentistry
I think, dear sir, your treatment will be even better that if it was at your local dentist. They are only concerned because of the red bits that may come out.... You will be fine.
If, perchance you are not, we'll never speak to you again
PS - let us know when you are going in, so we can keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

Re: Dentistry
I've had a crown and a root canal done and the price you've been quoted seems very reasonable.
Having broken beyond repair another large tooth I am part way through the process of having an implant done i.e. I've got the little titanium implant itself and am waiting for it to bond fully with the bone at which point the actual tooth will get screwed on. But if you think root canals and crowns are expensive you'll need anaesthetic before you get a quote for an implant. When I told my daughter the figure she reckoned I could get a boob job for less. My dentist, however, felt the implant was a more effective dental solution.

M&T
As I wrote earlier. I had a couple of implants over 25 years ago. Still as sound as a bell.
The wait will soon be over.
