The Tooth You Ignore

Do you book the appointment before the holiday?

The Tooth You Ignore

A tooth has hurt for six months. The dentist may find nothing serious, or may tell you that you need work you cannot afford. You have £800 saved for the first holiday you have taken in years.

Do you book the appointment before the holiday?

Then ask

  • How long have you been putting it off?
  • How much pain would make you cancel the trip?
  • Why have you not booked?

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
