After glibly replying to the molar thread yesterday the teeth at the back of my jaw have started aching intensely. Probably slightly somatic (yes I know that is spelt wrong) but was wondering what it costs to get them taken out.

My normal dentist was great but he has retired so I am not registered anywhere. Went to one up the road to see if I could register and was told they wanted £120 to examine my teeth BEFORE they agreed to accept me.

I assume you can get it done on the NHS but I also assume you need to see an NHS dentist first.

What is the best way to check if it needs doing and how much is it likely to cost?
