Dentists: Yesterday I rang the dentist and asked for an appointment for a scale and polish, and also asked if the dentist could look at my right hand front tooth because an old veneer seemed to be peeing off.
No problem.............and she gave me an appointment for 11.15 today. Well that's quick I thought to myself. Top marks.
The full scale and polish is for another day. The veneer would not be NHS because cosmetic work is not covered by the NHS.
So up I trolled at the appointed hour this morning and was called in. After looking at the offending veneer He said the 'rough' on the veneer I could feel and was aware of would simply polish out and it wasn't a veneer at all, (some kind of composite) He does the polishing to sort out the rough area and it feels and looks good. Also another area of the tooth which had discoloured.
All looks good. Here is the point...............He said:
'No charge it was only a bit of polishing and some advice'
I'll lay money those words rarely pass a dentists lips. I was in with him for maybe 10 mins, not long I'll grant, but no charge?
Well done that man.
