if your daughter were due to have a filling the day before her piano exam...

[coffeepot]

...would you change the appointment?

can't see why the filling would be a problem.

No - its a filling not root canal surgery!

OK...so it shouldn't be a problem - it's a horrendously long time since I had a filling and I can't remember what they are like!
Thanks...

Not for piano. I had a flute student have one the day before and that was not ideal.

Not for a routine filling IMHO.

TBH it would probably be more detrimental to rearrange the exam date, as she will have been working towards performing on the original date so should be at her peak performance-wise then. (it is possible to "over-practice" so much so the performance is dulled/diluted from repetition).

No. Why would you?

no. My DD(11) had a tooth out and I sent her back to school with a letter excusing her from PE and instructions to phone me at work if there were any problems (I am 5 mins away) and she was fine.
