Of course, there must be one such hospital nearby.<BR/><BR/>No anesthetic in the good old days... hahaha, I dare not imagine it! I prefer them to punch me unconscious. Perhaps, with the punch, the required tooth would have fallen out!Williamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18396044771460580089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17602911.post-72972677889175736002009-03-22T09:09:00.000+08:002009-03-22T09:09:00.000+08:00The NHS craves more dentists so that we can afford...The NHS craves more dentists so that we can afford to maintain our teeth! I paid £16 for my checkup and clean recently with NHS. My Mum has to go privately and paid £55!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, in the olden days when there was no anaesthetic, they used to get the patient drunk off whiskey, even punch them to knock them out, or they bite a towel - and then perform the amputation or operation etc.<BR/><BR/>Argh, cringeworthy!FM Luderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04205801296235699566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17602911.post-69408043617509402232009-03-18T23:45:00.000+08:002009-03-18T23:45:00.000+08:00i e R: Those "soft touch" cost money!GH... they re...i e R: Those "soft touch" cost money!<BR/><BR/>GH... they really still do those things?

You are sure it is GH and not polyclinic opposite that Joe Motor?<BR/><BR/>ah sir friend: Dentistry is very difficult to enter. In UK, they reserve only 2 places in each uni to foreign student. I think there are less than 20 uni in UK offering dentistry! So, got money also no use - cannot enter lah!Williamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18396044771460580089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17602911.post-78711455968819357862009-03-18T22:18:00.000+08:002009-03-18T22:18:00.000+08:00WT: those 150 pluck teeth is at those high class d...WT: those 150 pluck teeth is at those high class dentist, they will provide good service like spray something(instead of injection to numb the gum), this that, and some med pill for infection, antibiotic and swollen gum etc,... <BR/><BR/>GH? it was fun experince during me following my grandpa to GH for his teeth removed, a group of patience sit in a row on the bench, then a nurse will come out with sringe, one by one give injection (to numb the gum, of coz, each patience with a new sringe), then dentist will come out pluck one by one, so cute, i will someday follow someone there again and take some photo, it's fun to see, very memorable(nostalgic) of the old days; (give u tips where ur next shooting title might be :P)i e Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08271485127887622474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17602911.post-12521077468023884352009-03-18T22:04:00.000+08:002009-03-18T22:04:00.000+08:00Nil: In that case, I think I better get it done.

KL charges are as high and even higher in Europe. Females spaying does cost a little more but I would advice to get it done because it is generally healthier for the dog and increases life span and reduces risk of other diseases - so it is not just about getting pregnant.Nilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02645757922376510913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17602911.post-63130448969608606402009-03-18T21:44:00.000+08:002009-03-18T21:44:00.000+08:00i e R: agree with you.

Then my colleague was charged RM800 for cleaning his teeth.
