I had to go every 12 months, its the principal as far as i'm concerned, i paid N.I. all me working life plus all me dues n now i'm retired i have to pay the dentist, not in my lifetime.By the way ive been seeing a specialist oer 2yrs now oer me gob, so he will tell me, i see him every 6 months now, last time i paid the dentist they told me to see me doc, so whats the point?
