Any other suggestions we can offer to Tony?Please present them here or to the article in the link.

Actually Incog, that is an excellent idea, but only if the new dentists are mentored by an experienced hand.
Our (NHS) dentist is obviously quite new to the game and is useless. I've never had so much trouble with my teeth since he got his hands on them !!
I actually find it weird that the human body can be divided up into bits which are treated differently as far as free NHS treatment goes. Feet, teeth, eyes and ears are all chargeable to the patient at point of treatment, whereas most everything else is free ??
