Re: NHS Dentists

Well I think Oaklea is good as well or I wouldn't have recommended it in the first place.

When I went after I'd chipped my tooth they were great with me and fixed it up nicely. Only cost £16 which I thought was reasonable - expected it to be more like £30.

I seem to remember Garinda having a horror story about Oakleigh too.

You can only speak as you find. It is good to hear that others have had no problems with the dentists there. They can't all be bad then. I only spoke up because two members of my family had botched work done at Oakleigh by two different dentists.

Personally, my trust in the place has been shot. That's all I'm saying.

Re: NHS Dentists

I'm not happy. After our horrible experiences at Oakleigh in Ossy we decided to leave the practice and have registered our family at Antley Villa. They only do private now so it's £11 a month for hubby and me but the kids go free. I didn't want to have to do this but, like I said, my confidence in Oakleigh has gone.

Hubby went for a check up at Antley Villa today. The dentist there examined the work he'd had done at Oakleigh and declared it to be a right old botch up.

He'd had work done to a chipped tooth at Oakleigh but it was not packed properly, bacteria are getting in and it's going bad. It's going to take 1hr and a half and cost £146 to make right.

I don't mind paying for work but it's got me mad that we are having to fork out twice. We paid for Oakleigh to fix the problem, they messed up and he was in a lot of pain.Now we are having to pay again to correct their shoddy work.

Complain Lilly, I would. The NHS have a procedure in place, which has apparently been standardised - Info here

Thanks for that, Bonnyboy. We will definitely be looking into that.

He's going to ring Oakleigh first and see what they have to say.
