Hi, I had root cleaning on my rear molar and temporary filling due to an infection about a month ago. I was told to come back in February for a checkup to discuss further action which could be either an extraction or a full root canal and crown. The temporary filling crumbled and I had it replaced today. So far I have paid Band 2 charges of £56.30p, plus another £20.60 for the replacement filling today (I think because I asked...

I visited my dentist today and had a wisdom removed, asked her if it was possible to replace the bridge on lower teeth and she said it wasn\'t possible but I get a very sore gum if I try to eat that side and I believe the wisdom became damaged because I can only eat on one side, why won\'t she replace my bridge?

However, despite continuing my cleaning regime, the gum recession has been getting progressively worse.\r\n\r\nI’ve now seen an oral surgeon as the o...
