    Can she not ask the dentist/practice which is carrying out the procedure?
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    What's wrong with the Health Forum, where almost all other dental-related threads go..?

    When I've stopped laughing at Colin's comment..:rotfl:

    I agree with elsien - surely if she has an appointment booked she would have asked how much it was going to cost? and she must've already seen her dentist if she knows what work needs doing...didn't she ask him the cost of her treatment?
    Everyone you meet may be fighting a battle you know nothing about.
    Be kind!

    Maybe they have 'issues', and it would stress them to ask.
