Well OT of course but anyone got any opinions on the muddle known as NHS
dentistry? Band 3 (£222.50) is supposed to cover crowns and bridges
but it seems dentists are unable, or unwilling, to provide that
service. They say it only covers procedures where there is a "clinical
need" but that seems like a hell of a grey area. I'd say a missing
front tooth should not be classed as cosmetic, but what do I know?

Are you in pain?
Can you still eat?

If no to both then its cosmetic!

Well, they took a tooth out that wasn't hurting, and wasn't stopping me
eating, and that wasn't considered cosmetic
