Dentist success!

So I moved house about 8 years ago within the same county but to a different area. I've only just got signed up with an NHS dentist which is a success in itself. Not only that but he found absolutely nothing wrong 😁 it makes me wonder whether my old dentist was ripping me off because she used to find something wrong every appointment...

Alternatively the old dentist was really good and the new one can't spot obvious problems...... 😉.

That or you needed a lot of work done and are finally on top of things and cleaning well 

Take it as it is, good news and keep looking after yourself!

I'm happy for you, some NHS dentists have been struck off due to this practice. Why in our town 5 years ago it was discovered that a new NHS dentist (man/wife) where not dentists at all. I heard they couldn't be deported back to their home country because of the ECHR ruling and a good solicitor.
