However wasn't expecting my mild toothache pain to bring me the news that I need one filling and one tooth removed (that or root canal treatment, I settled for extraction!) as well as one capped.

However if that wasn't bad enough, I have been referred to the hospital to have not just one... not just two.... but my remaining three wisdom teeth out!

Oh and the NHS want to charge me almost £500 for that lot.....
That root canal treament isnt cheap ..I went to the dentist in December. Cost me £400. The tooth in question was in the front. I wasnt going to lose that at any cost.

They got you over a barrel

To think, with the cost of the hygienist as well, that would have paid for a return fllght to the Philippines.

Better to go with teeth in head than without, I think
