I just wondered how many people have a private dentist or NHS???I am fortunate to have one of the declining NHS dentists.However am I really that fortunate?The dental practice is sooo run down.The receptionist is so rude it's untrue.Not just to me but patients on the phone as well.Even my son couldn't believe the way she talked to patients on the phone whilst sitting in the waiting room.My dentist could win the Olympics for the fastest check up ever.New charges have been brought out,a check up(which should include a scale and polish)costs about £20.00.I knew I needed a scale and polish and yet I had to ask him for one,wasn't happy as this is about the 3rd time I have had to ask him to do it.He is quite rough as well when carrying out the checkup.I know it's ultra cheap but makes me wonder if I should change to Private.Would love some feed back on other peoples dentists please,should I go or should I stay?Would I be mad to leave one of the few NHS dentists around?
