American dentists aren't cheap. Better off going to Mexico! Not sure if they still use Vodka and string to deal with bad teeth though :chin:
Interesting cross section of views, up in Scotland dentists are pretty cheap I reckon, examples?
6 Monthly check-up last week £5.68
Went in last year with crippling tooth pain, dentist said my tooth was dead, infected nerve (is this root canal?) so 4 visits within a week including X-rays only cost £40 and he saved my front tooth so I was Uber grateful.

Where I used to work we charged £55 per hour, plus VAT. I appreciate most dentists aren't on the poverty line (the new NHS contract is supposed to give them an income of about £80k), but considering their overheads and the expertise required, I don't think the NHS pricing is excessive.Seraph said:
Trancendental - if you have an extraction, they won't fill it, so you'll have a gap. You can get the gap filled at a later date. Ask your dentist - they'll know better than I!
