alexist at 05:15pm on 08/06/2005I have 5 cavities (4 of which I knew about).
3 I can have filled on the NHS, at £12 each.
But 2 I'm going to have to do privately as the NHS does not classify bicuspids as front teeth even though they show :( (and one of the cavities is at the front of my top left bicuspid--it will be very visible). Those will be £85 each. Ow. Has to be done, though, especially that top left--I can see the damn thing, so if I leave it much longer it will be a root canal, post and crown and that will be really expensive!
I also have to see the hygienist for a clean and polish, which the NHS doesn't cover--another £40.
Damn my teeth...
