Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

A true dentist is basically a surgeon.
There's massive rightfully so prestige in that and they are a doctor by title.
But most aren't that. Which is fine, not every dental appointment is a lower jaw line reconstruction. My mother had her entire bone "replaced" from her teeth to the nose line by a dentist. It was long ass surgery. It's fair those people would like more than the "nhs rate" cleaning service.
That sounds fun. Especially the recovery!
Her teeth were basically "free floating" with a thin bridge holding them together as the fake bone was hardening.
She described it as basically sand being poured in and activated to solidify.
Wild stuff, it was done at the cost of the materials used and still cost thousands.
Moral of the story? Make friends with a dentist who will operate on you after hours for free.
