What is it about them than give you the butterflies?
I'm sat in one now and keep getting eaves of nerves even though I'm not that bothered when I'm in the chair. I'm ok with injections and fillings and more, never had a bad experience really, apart from a root canal which wasn't nice. |

It's just weird, someone inside your mouth poking about with tools.
Last time I went was for root canal and I didn't feel any pain at all so I'm kind of over it. I don't like the bills however. |

"Nothing worries me except the bill, that can turn me into a quivering wreck 
I cant afford to go"
NHS is £18 basic consultation, £46 for first level work like fillings or extractions then another level after that. You only pay one level. So you wouldn't pay £18 + £46 if you had to have something done, you'd just pay £46.
All dentists have to offer NHS places now I thought. |

I had a cap done yrs ago and the dentist was a right nutter.
Kept singing opera while half dancing round the surgery...
He put a temp in and it was to big and stuck out of me mouth like an upside down fang
Then when i had the real one in, he was trying to get the temp one out and flicked it down me throat and i swallowed it 
Never went back  |

Find your nearest university dental school (will be attached to a dental hospital). Contact them and volunteer to be a student patient, if you get taken on you will probably have a 6 to 12 mth wait to get treated but you will get the best and most up to date treatment going with everything being supervised by the best dental surgeons going.
At the moment I am having treatment in Manchester Dental Hosp. I would not qualify for the treatment on the NHS and it would cost me thousands if I went private. And it is all free! |

"I think they are all strange, sure the job pays well but who leaves school wanting to look in peoples mouths and drill/fill all day .... Bleugh!!"
According to the student that is doing my treatment she wanted to follow her parents (her father is an eye surgeon and her mother a GP) into medicine but also wanted a social life. So chose dentistry...
