:oops: just rang today. dentist new nhs patients being taken on. rang at 5pm told £20 registation fee,which u get back after treatment,ok. asked few ?s i suffer panic attacks & have o/a etc. my last dentist havent seen for 2 yrs (for various reasons )used to inject, to do all the work,on nhs, then check ups werent a problem. now to have sedation (as they worded) is private and instead of £60 it cost me 2 yrs ago its now £180 under private care with no nhs. all dental care will be private.its gonna cost me for every treatment. im gonna have to ring round including old dentist cause ive got reciding gum disease & at risk off losing to front teeth. anyone else in same position (cant spell soz) debs
