But then I wouldn't be able to film the op in all it's glory and post it on my blog the next day.
Actually, joking aside, though I didn't feel a thing when he was extracting the root, the thing which gave me one of those 'boy, this is going to hurt afterwards' moments was the realisation that the little vacumn thingy only looked red because it was hoovering up all the blood which was pouring out...

Did look into going abroad but an implant requires a full go to sleep anatestic so issues with flying back after.
Quote in London though was circa £2k, here my dentist has quoted €1500 and has what must be one of the best equipped dental practices I've seen.
Maybe the eastern countries are still cheaper, but...

Originally posted by Lucifer BoxHe only does it for costly treatment, natch, not for a routine checkup. He saves his treatment up for bursts. Last time I think he had a couple of crowns done, a false tooth fitted (rugby player, you see) and had some whitening done at the same time. Would have cost an arm and a leg here. He's already booked his flight back to have a brace fitted.
Now that does make sense, remakably sensible for a rugby player. Must be Union

With a cheap Ryanair flight he comes back quids in even if he makes a weekend of it and stays overnight in a hotel (which he often does). Two weeks ago he went there to get some new glasses at a fraction of the cost.
