I Had A Phone Call From My Dental Surgery This Morning...

... arranging an appointment for early in the New Year.

It got me thinking about things dental.  When was the last time you saw anyone with a gold tooth?

Did they come in, and then out of fashion?

Jay Blades has a gold tooth. Don't see it so often but they are still offered

I've got a gold crown 😁

Little to do with fashion. Gold was the best material for certain dental "jobs" way back...but many newer (and cheaper!) alternatives are available.

Thanks Sandy, 😀

The NHS still offers gold crowns

I tend to associate them with less than savoury, flashy criminal types. Not the sort of thing to appeal to most.

Only time I seem to get a call from them is to move an appointment further into the future.

This is a surgery just refurbished after being closed for months.  It was nicely done up but they had no dentist.

It seems they've found one or two.

My gold crown, which was a back tooth all but one, top right, I didn't have to pay because youngest was under two. The Dentist reminded me how expensive they were and would last forever. 😃
