When we were in Grenada I visited the dentist for my regular check up. The lady dentist told me I needed a couple of fillings replacing, that I ground my teeth and needed a dental guard and gave me the most painful and brusque cleaning I have ever experienced. I decided not to go back for the treatment, but to wait until we were back in Point a Pitre. A couple of years ago David had excellent treatment at the dentist next to the marina. The surgery is as modern and clean.
So this morning I popped into the office to ask for an appointment. Within 15 minutes of arriving I had had an xray and was sitting in the chair. The lady dentist gave me a shot to numb the gum. While I waited for the shot to take effect David booked an appointment for next week to have his teeth cleaned.
Back into the surgery the filling done with no discomfort and I am walking out feeling very happy with the treatment I'd received. It was faster, and cheaper, than seeing an NHS dentist in the UK. Win, win.
It so good we celebrated this evening with a sushi platter for two and a bottle of chilled rose at Quai Ouest restaurant.
