Hubby went for a check up at Antley Villa today. The dentist there examined the work he'd had done at Oakleigh and declared it to be a right old botch up.

He'd had work done to a chipped tooth at Oakleigh but it was not packed properly, bacteria are getting in and it's going bad. It's going to take 1hr and a half and cost £146 to make right.

I don't mind paying for work but it's got me mad that we are having to fork out twice. We paid for Oakleigh to fix the problem, they messed up and he was in a lot of pain.Now we are having to pay again to correct their shoddy work.
Complain Lilly, I would. The NHS have a procedure in place, which has apparently been standardised - Info here
