Today is #TimeToTalkDay

Time to Talk Day is the nation’s biggest mental health conversation and it’s taking place TODAY! It’s the day that friends, families, communities, and workplaces come together to talk, listen and change lives.

Join Mind, Rethink Mental Illness and Co-op and take part in the day. I'm sharing some insights into how i get to help people everyday in the dental practice, just by listening and talking.

Start a conversation about mental health today.

Just recently I had to have all my top teeth removed (gum issues ) how can I move forward with confidence ? NHS couldn't help said too much work band 3 not worth time refer me to private. Ask about refer hospital dentist said "no again" . During Covid things got worse so a Friend lent me some money to go private, lovely dentist said if NHS treated gums maybe would have saved teeth ! Best to remove teeth have nice denture, 12 month permanent smile. This is costing me 5k remove teeth, gum treatment & temp denture (plus extra 2k permanent denture ) I didn't avoid dentist but couldn't get treated under NHS for gum disease and than didn't have money for private so things got worse to point now dentures . Feel let down but private dentist lovely very experienced lucky to find her but at high cost .
