Do I go Private? :(

[lauriedoo]

I went to the dentist on Wednesday and since then I have not left my bed, showered or eaten properly because I feel so sick. I am so scared of losing my teeth and I consider myself to take good care of care of them. I visited the dentist on Wednesday as I had found a little grey dot on one of my teeth and I couldn’t stop thinking about it so just wanted some comfort but that did not happen.

The appointment itself was really quite stressful - I won’t get into detail. After the appointment I asked for my x-rays and it turns out that I have had cavities since July 25 that I have not been advised of even though I was told I would get a call back if anything showed up on the x-rays. I have then been to the dentist three times since July 25 and only one of the cavities was mentioned on Wednesday. The others were not discussed at all - some of them to be in the stage of where they are in the enemal but one of them is quite large and it should have been dealt with a lot sooner. I now have no trust in the dentist

Also - it was a different dentist I saw for two of my appointments so two dentists have missed this.

I just feel so mistreated and feel like I need to go private now but it’s so expensive
