Sounds like we have the same problem. They gave me one dose, and it didn't work, so they gave me more. and then it wore off, so they gave me more.

Could be.  But the last time I had anything done to my teeth, it took forever to wear off.   Maybe because they had to give me so much, I don't know.

Yes.

However only the gilded classes can afford them.  Peasants must make do with pliers and glue, unless they can find an NHS dentist without eleventy billion registered members already.

Only the gilded classes can afford it here too. You should SEE what a dental copay looks like (if you're lucky enough to have coverage).  :x

Tell me about it.  I had to put braces in my kids' mouths, and it involved arterial bleeding from my pocketbook.

GS is apparently going to get good coverage when it kicks in with his new job. He's going right for the Invisalign. I need to have all the plastic bonding stripped out of my mouth and replaced with porcelain crowns, but insurance doesn't cover that ANYWAY. So I'm fucked.

When I got my front toof fixed last year, the bond cost me almost $300 out of pocket...for 30 minutes worth of work and no anesthetics. The dentist was a cool guy and understood I was broke so he didn't push a good crown on me, he just recommended it when I could afford it. He basically wants to reshape my front teeth. They're straight from having braces, but the sizes are weird and I look like a jack rabbit (or an Otter, which is of course, my USAF call sign).  I think he quoted me like $3000 for an Invisalign treatment for a few months, and then the removal of the bonding and re-sculpting with porcelain.  :x

My mom had four wisdom teeth, and my dad had none. Both me and my brother ended up with two.

Mine are coming in right now, fuck if I'm gonna get them yanked. Plenty of room in this mouth.

So I had a molar pulled two months ago. It was a hellish ordeal for me because I metabolize the anisthetic quickly. And it makes me shake a lot, so I can't sit still. But anyway. When my dentist considered himself finished, I heard him say to the nurse "There's still a piece in there." Well, I wasn't going to do anything about it, they had to cut the bitch out while the numbness wore off and stabbed me in the cheek besides, so I was done with dentists for a while.

Today, I had half a big bag of Tostito chips, and just now I pulled a big piece of tooth out of my gums. I'm kind of relived, because I was worried that I'd have to go back to get it taken care of, and I already owe them money.
