Just been to nhs dentist with my two boys and our dentist is absolute rubbish at explaining (or not) things to children, is abrupt, not nice, not friendly, and think that it's all fine because she gives them a stupid sticker at the end of the apointment. And their teeth are fine. I can't really see how she is if she is dealing with children with bad teeth. I don't like going to the dentist on the best of days but really if they deal with children they should be trained on how to not making them feel OK about it. My youngest one (7 yo) was crying on the way to school because she said to him he needed to brush his teeth better but she didn't tell him how to do it... So I said to him we'll look it up on the internet, thank goodness for the internet...
