Lincoln would be fine...I go there a fair bit anyway and really should see a dentist especially while I can take advantage of NHS treatment...certainly havent got the money right now to pay for one, especially as no doubt all my old fillings will need redoing now and one tooth has chipped...bloody fortune privately!

Here are some ideas

Private, don't go what!

Well most dentists pulled out from NHS due to bad conditions and the inability to do certain treatments while in NHS (cost slightly more but more cost effective in long run). These dentists quite often do their own plans (ours does) and are worth seeking out, the olny problem is that most restrict them to their ex NHS patients.

Do not blame the dentists blame the government

Problem with any dentist plan is...you have to have your teeth sorted first...I will need at least 10 old fillings redone...plus maybe a crown or a tooth rebuilding...this I really cannot afford so private is not an option...I know its the governments fault, to be honest the state of the country as a whole is...but that still doesnt really help :(

I'm gonna see what I can do tomorrow, ring around, try the suggestions made here and see if I can get in somewhere :)
