My dentist has now botched two fillings in three weeks, both requiring emergency root canals. The second woke me at 4am on a Sunday, sending me across London for expensive private treatment. I'm filing a formal complaint with the NHS. My teeth and my wallet are both in ruins.

Survived two of four fillings. The nurse was actually good at suction, he didn't bruise my lips, and the anaesthetic kicked in before the drill did. Face still paralysed. Apparently I look like a stroke victim on the tube.

My latest dentist visit revealed three botched fillings and a tooth so destroyed it's basically just a hole. The projected repair costs are astronomical enough that my lifelong justification for sobriety ("at least it's cheaper than drinking") may finally require a spreadsheet to defend. Brush your teeth, kids.
