I broke a tooth in March and – struggling with eating – my sympathy for aged aunts and uncles who endured dentures for years has hugely increased; as has my immense regard and gratitude for a wonderful trinity of dentist, dental nurse and hygienist who, between them, warmly assisted by a super receptionist and the practice manager, make a visit to their dental surgery feel like a happy day out. And a splendid temporary tooth bites into a sandwich as good as the original!
