Ghost2520 Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 Well actually I've had my braces off for quite some time, but I still have all of those follow up evaluation appointments. Well not anymore! I found out this morning my orthodontist was arrested last night for soliceting under age women on the internet! He was even soliceting some of his patients! WOOT no more appoinments for me.

Newport Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 lmao... Yeah i always hated going to the dentist.... I told me dentist several times after he put me on the gas (after a fight with a hardball and my mouth which i lost) that if i woke up with my pants unzipped that there would be major trouble! LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardnrg Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 I love going to the dentist, i dunno what all the fuss is about we don't have to pay anything like what they pay over there tho dude... when i lived in the states, i paid a doctor $150 for a health check for a f--kin job of all things... in the uk it's free... i think dentists have started charging these days but it's still only like $15 for a whole examination, poke, clean, etc...

andrusk Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 (edited) I would love a socialized healthcare system where you have to be put on a checklist and wait to be seen by the doctor. I mean comon, its free (next to the huge amount of taxes you pay) and everybody gets free medical. I mean, who cares if sometimes you cant get help when you acutally need it. [/sarcasm] oh wait, that would suck. Edited July 7, 2004 by andrusk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomerJaySimpson Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 Dental treatment in the UK aint free anymore. We gotta pay out the . for tax, then we gotta give our dentist a few hundred for a lousy fix. Our healthcare is probably on par with Africa! Free or not, i cant wait to get outta this place! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Pistachio Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 Gotta love paying for someone else's healthcare when you're perfectly healthy and only see the doctor once a year. <_< Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/sarcasm] oh wait, that would suck. meh, you can always get instant private healthcare if you want... the bonus is, if you get run over by a car, and are bleeding to death, you get taken to the hospital and you get an operation right away... instead of having to produce your health insurance papers/card/whatever when you aren't even conscious... so here, it's like, if you need it like you're gonna die in 2 minutes, you get sorted, if you need help but like you won't die, then it's waiting list or private.... i just don't like the thought that when i was in america, if i was in a serious accident, i'd have to get my dad to sell his car and get the money for it before i could have a life-saving operation... meh, but anyway, bit off topic, so yeah dentists are now pay-only... i don't know if that's good or bad... i don't care really cos it's not like i'm gonna die waiting for someone to poke a metal toothpick in all my teeth and scrape some stuff and then go "yeah, all good"... stupid dentists... hmm, i wonder if i get free dental treatment for being a student (from september)...?
