Dentist

My dentist is private and NHS, does that make me sexually confused?

What if my teeth revolt because I haven't been paying out of the ass for treatment? :(

Please advise.

Hmm, Don't store money in anal passages.
Might be medical advice, but I think the Dons will let it slide.... unlike your money.
 
Ok. I had my treatment... I came out now with teeth that have new fillings but are SUPER sensitive to hot and cold...

My teeth didn't feel a thing before.

I HATE YOU DENTIST!

Did they not warn you? The nerves are hypersensitive for the first few days - hot and cold foods/drinks should be avoided or it can go on for much longer. My last one took a good couple of weeks for the sensitivity to completely go.

For some people it never stops and the filling has to be replaced - this is very rare though.

If on a biting surface you also shouldn't chew on the filling for at least a day :)

The sensitivity will probably go, it took about 2 months for mine actually. The dentist told me that it's good if your teeth are sensitive after the work has been done as it means the root is alive and healthy. It can definitely be a bit angry for a few days though.

I used to have to brush my teeth with warm water, but it's a lot better now. If I try freezing cold water directly on the tooth that had a lot of work done (not the RC one) it's still a bit sensitive.

I would hope that your teeth will feel a lot better in a few days. At least it's done now. :)
 
Umm... Aren't some private dentists also NHS though?!

The dental centre I go to was originally private only, but now they take NHS patients. I pay NHS prices for check ups, but private prices if I go for something like white fillings instead of silver. I would've thought private and NHS provide the same quality of service, however with private you get more treatment options to choose from but obviously you pay more?
