The Doctors are going on a summer holiday...but Ruhma has it, there's a wedding first...

[Raahh]

eeek! The thread ran out!

Welcome Madam. Yes, 6tl stands for 6th Time Lucky - she had 5 bit parts before she got the full time role.

Eeeeeesh needs to bugger off now. It is dull. I think she has run her course as a character. She was a low-rent version of Michelle anyway, so now Bren has gone there is nothing else to have her do.

I reckon they've forgotten about the with marney, although they have remembered the rob left her in the pushchair in the park.

Maybe that guy saying no with make Ayesha think twice about being such a pta!

This isn't over yet they'll drag it out until 6tl puts on her dressing gown proper LOL ing at that blame

There's some thing wrong with you if you feel sorry for Emma. Just saying

Welcome madam. You'll often findRaahh chatting away to herself on this thread, she is the perfect Doctors thread poster .

Go Raahh!

The lack of NHS dentists is a real problem, unfortunately.

Where was today's step by step!?

Bollocks

I was watching tennis, and had that thread open, so have managed to post my endless stream of consciousness over there

tennis thread

I think I need a lie down.

Well done Raahh! I've added a little post to your tennis thread.

The emergency dental hospital moves around in our area. So one day it's in the west, another the east etc. You have to ring up and pour your heart out just to get an appointment. But they won't treat you, they examine your teeth and will prescribe antibiotics if needed and then tell you to see a dentist...

What I've just said seems nonsense, about the emergency dentist. Umm, just ignore me for now. I'm going to ask DH and DD their experiences.

Emma was lucky. I'd have sacked her from her fme role and reported her to Mrs Tembe for her lying.

I don't like Emma.

Is it dental week in Letherbridge ?

There's definitely a dental thing going on. It's like a social commentary on the state of the NHS.

Doctors is completely unrealistic in terms of a general practice, so I don't suppose they could criticise GP's surgeries.
Can you imagine what the story line would look like? Heavens, patient Smith has only been able to see the Dr immediately today at his home, place of work and while visiting the dressing gown shop.

Oh and my DH says that emergency dentist gave him a temporary filling on a tooth that needed extraction. They won't extract or do permanent work. Plus once his local anaesthetic wore off, the intense pain returned!

I had emergency treatment at the dentist last week, for my gums. They basically swished my mouth with corsydyl and gave me a prescription for antibiotics.

My dentist retired, and moved her patients to the same practice the rest of my family are at. But I haven't been for years for a while, so will have to join the waiting list.

I get a bit nervous at the dentist. Ironically, it's the ad's and anti anxiety meds I am on that are wrecking my gums. ( Chronic dry mouth).

I had the dentist this week, he has clearly been on some sort of course as he was all 'good news your teeth are strong and healthy and we want to help keep them like that' went my face. Anyway I need to see the hygienist and the first appointment available is April !

I go to the hygienist every 12 weeks and get a dental check up twice a year. I've got terribly receding gums, otherwise the teeth aren't too bad.
One memorable year, I visited the dentist 13 times plus had deep root planing at Guy's dental hospital (4 visits)
Needless to say, I've completely lost my fear of the dentist. I used to be a right bag of nerves. I do get scared at my GP's though. I go once per year for prescription review and blood tests.

Raahh I have meds that give me dry mouth. It's horrible, I keep water next to me at bedtime. I use a mouthspray that encourages saliva, plus special toothpaste and mouthwash. On some occasions I've been known to wipe Vaseline over the roof of my mouth in desperation. It's a horrible thing, but sound a bit pathetic when I say it.

Blame, April is the first appointment! Blimey, you ought to book the follow up one immediately.

It's only for a polish and scale. My old dentist used to do it himself and I'm sure that it's included in the cost of the appointment(NHS) but I have to pay for the hygienist.

Plenty of NHS dentists round here, I think mine is open 7 days a week. At least we didn't have to suffer Eeeeeeeeeeesh.

Any strictly fans? Keep seeing the advert and it looks like jizz's bf is in it.

We are watching but I can't remember what he looks like !
