[Atilla]

Just got back from the Dentists. Had a 20 minute scrape and clean with the Hygenist. There were others waiting after me.

Was charged £45! Bleading hells bells thats £135 an hour! Not even plumbers charge that much!!!

Whats the charges like in the rest of the Country or is us down South being stung?

jeez if I had a tenner for everytime a customer of mine started a conversation that way when they didnt want to pay


you cannot extrapolate your charge to arrive at an hourly figure - it just doesnt work like that (and for the record I charge more per minute on site than your dentist does LOL)

He injected me in the hand, and i dont remember a thing, which is what they said will happen.

its called a local anaesthetic, but why they inject your hand when they are pulling a tooth i have no idea.

Was your mouth numb when you came round? If so, you also had an injection into the gum while you were unconscious; that was the local anaesthetic.

The injection into the arm/back of hand was only to make you drowsy - the technical term is "sedation" - so they can do the local injection without needing half a dozen burly guys to hold you down. The dose depends on your weight but everybody reacts differently to an anaesthetic; which is why some will go drowsy while others will go right out.

steve, you will have to ask your dentist, i asked do they do gas, (i hate having teeth pulled) they said they dont do that anymore, but i can have this injection, so i did.

it is not the dentist that injects you, it really is a specialist who comes in for the day, presumbaly they do a few that day.

He injected me in the hand, and i dont remember a thing, which is what they said will happen.

definently have it done again. (if i have to)

oh, and you have to have the day off work, and some one to take you home, you go to bed and sleep, and sleep.

its called a local anesthetic, but why they inject your hand when they are pulling a tooth i have no idea.

Would that be the 1 by J11 of the M1 on the corner ??
Very good there, had to take my son there twice coz he was a woos and wouldnt have the injection

I was in the chair for a 15 minute check up...28 sheets (private)

Our ironic is it..dentists used tos ay greed of sweet things causes tooth decay..

And now their greed is doing the same because a lot of people just cant afford to pay for it.
