Dentist charge me twice!

[Dedworth]

I'm a 15 year Denplan man, rolled in today 15 hour notice for a not as it turned out emergency issue. I think with the monthly drip, drip payments I'm better off than the escalating ongoing NHS treatments/payments I was getting. 2 years ago had some root canal work done as part of the deal. Might help that I was one of the original first customers when my man and his wife set up on their own 20 years ago. I view it as a necessary expense

Most of us have no choice but to go for private dental care, and many like you and Rosie do find it makes sense to join a scheme like Denplan. I prefer " pay as you go ", and also don't have private medical insurance ( leisure club membership is a proxy ).
As with health in general, it's partly luck and partly lifestyle how much treatment each individual will need. Agree that it's a necessary expense. This can be minimised by good dental hygiene - brushing teeth three times a day ( electric toothbrushes are approved by dentists ), using antiseptic mouthwash, cutting down on sugary snacks / " merienda ", and regular check ups ( at least once a year ).
