Dentists and experiences in the past

Bentall once broke one of my teeth while attempting to extract it Told me to come back in a couple of days when he could fit me in.A pleasant experience him digging the root out[/quote He must have made a fortune out of my treatment.I went age 17 to have a tooth out.He pulled it out and then filled all my teeth and fitted me a denture over the next few weeks.At least it was free to me.

 

I have two really awful memories of the dentist.One was at the School dentist at Hatfield House Lane School and the other at a dentist on Attercliffe Common just a few doors past the Pavilion cinema .They both used Cocaine or gas both were very unpleasant .The taste and smell of the mask was horrid.I would be around 5 or 6 about 1955.
