Another good NHS dentist experience
« on: August 02, 2008, 11:04:31 AM »
I'm terrible with going to the dentist. I just hate them. In the 7+ years I've been here, I've gone twice!  :o :o But somehow I get away with it... I've never had a cavitie here, only had to have old fillings replaced.

That said, when we went yesterday I was worried... but he was a fabulous dentist. My in-laws have been going to this practice in Newcastle for years. The 2 main dentists are private (one is a dental professor, too). But they also have an NHS guy who I saw. He did a thorough check, x-rays, and a scale and polish. He told me that whatever I'm doing, I'm doing right but I'll try not to wait another 4 years next time!

Two thumbs up!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

That's good to know. Are you going to give him a name check so people in the area know who to go to or is he a well kept secret?

TBH, not sure if they are taking more NHS patients. They *may* have taken us as a family favor. I'll find out and if so, post the name.
