  • Yep, they tried to charge me £125 per white filling and I said "like, when I came in two months ago the fillings were uh, like, £75".

    They said the up-charge was due to the Covid, I said "whoa" and we agreed on £95.

    Had a bunch of work I'd been putting off, shouldn't need the dentist for another ten years now though.

  • So they tried to charge you £50 extra and your settled for an extra £20?

    Just had a look at my dentist’s webpage and they are charging an extra £90 but I am really confused as to if it’s an extra £90 per an appointment or £90 per a course treatment from strait to finish...

    Their emergency appointment is £125 including a bunch of stuff but would one have to pay the £90 on top? I am all confused...

    Anyone care to have a read and let me know?

    I don’t need any treatment right now but I do have a couple of really non urgent crowns that I want sorting out as soon as their open up their book for non urgent appointments, if it’s £90 each time I set foot in their room, it seems a bit steep.

    Anyhow, might be time to look for another dentist, there is only 1 dentist there I like, who happens to be the co-owner, the rest is a bit... meh... the practice manager is a bull in a china shop!

    Per tooth in my case, said "fuck no".
    It was work I'd put off for ages so didn't really have a choice but was able to negotiate down.
