My dentist won an award last year. He's got a little plaque
if you're self employed and if having a lovely smile is part and parcel of your work, then dental charges are tax deductible.
If you go private, brace yourself before you get the bill
If you want an English dentist you have to go in the morning. Most knock off when it comes to 2.30.

I once knew a girl for whom this info would've been very useful. Loveliest smile I ever came across

DOES ANYONE Know is it breaking the law in todays multi-cultu ral Britain to cancel a dental app. under these circumstances....
I never actually said why I cancelled because I don.t want to hurt anyones feelings....especially foreignours.
If you had the foreigner I used to have you wouldn't cancel. A lovely blonde Swedish woman. It was a pleasure to be drilled by her.
The last dentist I went to, did a bit of a jig in the surgery and mumbled a few words before throwing a handful of bones onto a tray.
After studying them for a minute or two he declared that I needed a scale and polish.

I've got a lovely dentist. Fiona, from Newcastle originally.
i remember Fiona from Newcastle when she appeared in Readers Wives
my local dentist sold out to some Asians who as soon as they took over started charging everyone £10/month to be registered with them so I quickly de-registered with them
I'm now with an NHS dentist - mind you the NHS dentist isn't too cheap these days
One thing that did surprise me is treatment is not free for pensioners only for kids and the lazy workshy who get everything paid for and still moan

Had a Nigerian dentist on the NHS many years ago.
He found loads and loads of problems with my pearlies that other dentists had 'failed' to spot. He was determined to fill/pull/cap/xray /scale/ polish every tooth in my head. Cnunt he was
His breath stunk like a rotting month old corpse too.

There is one dentist I know of who could always find work in someone's mouth that no other dentist could find.
I went to him and he identified 13 filling that I needed doing.
At that point I'd only got a couple of fillings at the front in my top set.
He must have thought he'd opened a treasure chest when he looked into my mouth.
I asked the nurse who was to arrange the appointments what would happen if I didn't have the work done. She said, ''Oh your teeth will drop out.''
I wasn't having that so I went to another dentist to check this out he said I need one filling.
A asked him about the other twelve fillings I'd been advised to have.
He said ''Well Mr Crippen, I guess you've made a remarkable recovery since then and they won't be needed now.''
Decades later I've only got six fillings, and I visit the dentist every 12 months.
So it goes to show how some dentists create work or used to at any rate.

Been over 10 years since I had an English dentist, and been going to the same place. 3 different ones since, Indian, Indian, and Polish now. This Polish chap is very good, but the Indian women was one of the best dentists I've ever had. She took her full maternity leave and never come back. But happy with this Polish guy.
My latest dentist is an Indian girl.
She was on holiday last time I went, and her replacement was another Asian woman.
She tried the old trick of applying great pressure on my double teeth with the probe.
Basically trying to create some work.
I stopped her saying ''you're pressing too hard.''
She carried on without the excessive pressure.

Years ago my dentist was taken over by the "Smile Clinic". No teeth left to fill so suggest work to pr empt problems I may have in the future. Load of Bollocks, so never went back.
I donated my self to the students my local School of Clinical Dentistry.
I would say that 90% of the students where foreign nationals from well to do families. The student who dealt with me was from Dubai. A lovely young lady with a winning smile herself but perhaps her needle skills need honing.

An emergency dentist tried to frighten me into going private to have root canal work done by showing me something like a rusty nail he'd be using if I went NHS
i won't ever risk going onto the NHS 
have a dentist at the moment who is excellent - he also says he is the VERY best .
He isn't British though
