Three years ago, I was 'pushed' into PIP, about £9000 a year! Then my "dentist" has 'persuaded' me to 'join' their plan, whereby I have a checkup every six months, but any fillings, crowns etc, I have to pay for, [I was given a crown recently but told that since it was done on the NHS, later quietly the difference of my 'discount' was later taken out of my account, without my knowledge!] I was also given the dubious privilege of seeing a Hygeniest every four months, [I have epilepsy, and fractured my skull, a coincidence when joining this new union of dentist and Hygeniest, a weak moment in my life?] a 'set' date is given, I told them later, I could not attend this appointment [my nephew's birthday party] but was charged for not attending! This Hygeniest tells me to go on a 'new' toothpaste or a new electric toothbrush, my local chemist has told me since the toothpaste has stopped being produced {tasted awful!}, the toothbrush was rubbish, my chemist friend recommended a different one, all she does is scrub my teeth, and advise me of my 'diet', {How can I go on a specialist diet on PIP?}, my Hygeniest tells me my teeth have improved, another coincidence as my epilepsy medication has been changed, taken off Lamictal, after 5 years, infamous for tooth decay! A tip for people using Lamictal?
