Who thinks NHS dentist is having a laugh? I can handle the pain i can take pain killers what i am worried about is my children, they are fine but if i cant find a dentist soon enough i wiil have to go private. Do private dentists let you pay in instalments?
I have a chipped tooth which is cut my cheek i cannot find a local dentist?
You keep trying the NHS http://www.nhs.uk/ and get that tooth fixed.
The bigger problem is that you don't really have the cash for a costly procedure.
Mexico is cheap on Dentistry but if you go there, make sure your seeing a "real" dentist...
Or you can...
Put 3 or so pounds a week in a jar that says "Dentist" on it. Make sure you can't see in the jar.
Wait until next time you need a dentist, (kids too) and open the jar!
Depending on how well you practice dental hygiene...will be how long until your next time.
Also research private dentist's in your area and ring them up. Ask what what they have available for "low income families". Many dentist's will except a payment plan or knock off a few pounds if you are "low income".

Reply:You can always pay in installments.
Be up front in your situation, and generally the dentist will also
charge you less.
good luck
Reply:yes! try some wax from those little wax bottles of sugar water sold for kids. it will cover the jagged edge.
Reply:if you ring nhs direct they have emergency dentists in your area and they also have a list of nhs dentists that are taking on patients i only know this because my husband didnt have a dentist and he was in agony and i rang them hope this helps
Reply:Open your gob too often in my local boozer , they'l sort it for you !
Reply:Phone your local primary care trust for a list of your local dentists. If they are full ask to be put on a waiting list and in the meantime find a private one. I got my NHS dentist after a years wait so not too bad. Also private ones aren't always as expensive, phone around and ask for quotes. Also if it's for your family you might be able to get a family rate etc. Therefore I would suggest doing some research for the long term, and phoning NHS direct or visiting a private one for your chipped tooth. Good luck
Reply:Not that I can really advise you on this, but you could actually get a nail file back there and just rub a little bit to smooth it down. Don't worry about breaking the tooth, because if the piece is so thin that you can break it with a nail file, it's going to have to come off to fix the tooth anyway. You won't do any harm
HERE's your socialized dentistry, averstar23. This poor guy can't even get a dentist to take 10 second to trim down a sharp edge. This is the kind of thing that we do every day FOR FREE - for our patients of record - and we say, "You tell US when you can come in."
This poor guy doesn't even know how to FIND a "private" dentist.
I hope everyone in the USA who reads these complaints about the NHS will realize that "National Health Care for Everyone" is NOT the way to do things.
