Question: My mum and I go to the same dentist. Me privately, her on the NHS. For a check up and filling.....?
For me, the dentist did the check-up on one day and the filling another day, charging two fees.
For my mum, the dentist did the check-up and offered to do the filling on the same visit. Due to the NHS funding structure, he would only have got one fee whether he did it there and then or on a separate day.
Can any conclusions be drawn from this.? Do you have any similar experiences.?

Answers:
It depends on the dentist as this can happen the other way round too.
I read a post on here ages ago about an NHS dentist making 3 separate charges, so ask friends and family when choosing a dentist, it pays.
You are entitled to ring the dental surgery and ask what their policy is.Health Question & Answer
