The private dental service.

Oh my god mines a joke. Paid £54 for a box of amoxicillin which ok fine. 4 days in i went back and said pain was still harsh. He told me "Do a warm compress! I said " Yes ive done that. He then said " Do a cold compress!! 😆😆 Honestly all smiles whilst the moneys coming in. Any advice needed just goes any which way that suits him so he can turf you out until he ready to collect ££s again.

Amoxicillin is important to take before dental work. It dissolves plaque which can go to the heart

I knew someone who died in the dentist chair from that

I dont know what type of dental pain you have but best thing for dental pain is swishing and gargling with salt water. Its healing. Try it.

@Perry1968 Sorry to hear that. All medical fields overcharge you for everything these days. I hope your pain goes away soon!

@Blondily Its gone thankfully. But thank you for your kind words 🙂💙

I’m sorry to hear, dental pain is the worst.
Looks like you have lots of advice here though. I hope you feel better soon..

@LavidaRaq 🙂 Thank you. Its gone now. Ive today signed up with a different dental practice too as the former one was honestly extremely careless. Or the particular dentist i seen anyway. Just cared about money. I understand its a buisness. But like a car garage i guess you get good or bad mechanics. And orally this guy was the equivalent of a very dodgy back street garage. I have used salt water and coconut oil and was oil pulling. Thank you so much for kind words 🙂💙

In the states you can get dental work done by students (under a dr’s supervision) for about half price at the schools. I might do that for a bridge

You tried clove oil for the pain? Worked a treat to numb my nerve pain when i had a filling a couple months back...tastes awful, but its worth it

Perry1968 · M

@Beautifullyderanged Its gone now. Yesrs ago when i first tried clove oil. A friend said gargle it. 😆 I felt like chucking him out of his window. It worked. My whole mouth and throat was completely numb.

Beautifullyderanged · 41-45, F

@Perry1968 see I can laugh about it because I didn't fall for it but as i know the taste I feel so bad for you

Perry1968 · M

@Beautifullyderanged Om good god didnt it just 😄

What is actually causing the tooth pain? You need to diagnose the cause before seeking the solution.

Never fool around with mouth/tooth discomfort, it’s too close to the brain.

@therighttothink50 He never said. Its not an abcess. Hes just been very vague. Honestly its a terrible practice. Ive signed up with another. Today infact.

@Perry1968 you probably need an X-ray ro conference what it is.

Speaking of Dollar General, you see a woman doctor from Nicaragua was found frozen to death in a Dollar Store freezer. In Miami 😱

Appears to be a suicide 😵

Then it's nerve exposure, not abcess
