    Next time in Philippines have an 'inplant' screwed in. Nice quality work and really really really cheap.

    Steve, did you notice how I emphasised the cheap bit

    That said ... I've just finished a course of penicillin antibiotics prescribed two weeks' ago for a painful abscess which had developed beside one of my remaining LARGE back teeth.

    My next 'must do' in the Phils....have replaced the screwed in one that screwed itself out.

    Otherwise, I have a full set of gnashers.

    I smashed my front tooth to pieces about 12 years ago, was working trying to do a nut up with a spanner and and the spanner slipped, shot up and smashed me on the tooth! I have a lovely false one that has never moved since being fixed in....... you watch it fall out now!

    Cost hundreds of pounds, but somehow I managed to put it down as a work accident and my boss paid for it, luckily I was dating the dentists assistant at the time and I had some fillings and cosmetic stuff done at the same time and put it on my bosses bill!

    I found that dental work was cheaper here than in the Philippines.

    I had an 'estimate' here a couple of weeks ago and it was in the hundreds.

    My ex had a load of dental work done in the Phils...including extraction of a wisdom tooth and two top front teeth that had never erupted from her gum (like ingrowing toenails...weird). Total cost was about p15,000 and work done really well by a US trained dentist.

    I've been extremely impressed by all the dental work done there, but I suppose it depends upon the individual dentist.

    Where are you getting your quotes from? £209 Is the most you should pay. http://www.nhs.uk/NHSEngland/AboutNH...l-charges.aspx

    As with all dentists not matter what country, you get good and bad.

    £209 is what i've got to pay for root canal work so they can put a pin in, to hold the crown in, replace a filling that fell out ages ago, clean them all up all for £209.

    but i'll not be going again for a couple of years..

    I use to work with a Brit guy who use to go to Hungary to get his teeth done, he said just as good as UK but lot cheaper.

    My teeth are good enough to eat " Findus Ready Meals For One : Lasagne " .... but it gave me the trots

    Hardly surprising when it's an anagram of " Feed Your Diners Lame Nags an' Foals " .
