Really?
Wow, this is pretty cool!

If we have some urgent tooth-problems at the weekend, we have to go to the hospital ("head-clinic") where is a dentist-section.

Our regular dentists are closed.

Yeah our regular dentists are closed as well. We have this emergency duty thing.

 

[Milkie]

Good afternoon everyone.

Just came back from the hospital with my daughter thinking that her wrist may have been broken when a student (running) hardly bump her hand yesterday at school. Verdict, not broken but she will have to suffer the pain for at least 3-5 days.

I hope her wrist will be better soon.

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIN, everybody!!!!

Oh, I see!
Anyway I think it's better in Finland if you don't have to go to a hospital?

I think it's never good to go to a hospital at all! Regardless fo what country youy're in.

Yes. That's what I said.

If you get toothache at the weekend, Milkie said in Finland you go to the regular dentist, while in Germany you have to go to the head-clinic.

So in my opinion the Finish regulation is better than the German.

What a shitty day Nothing super terrible, just one crappy thing after the fucking other

It's almost the same in NL. You have a dentist (and general doctor) of guard, in case of emergency.
In Belgium too, except for the dentist.

Can't be any worse than waiting 6 weeks for an "emergency" appointment

You have to wait 6 weeks for an emergency (!) appointment!
I hope for you, you'll never get sick!

Nope

Well, that's for the public dentist attached to the hospital near where I live. I used to work in the same building right across from their reception. When they answered the phone they sounded like broken records. Apparently for someone to get their tooth seen to earlier they'd have to go to a Brisbane clinic very early for a "walk-in" clinic (first in, first serve kind of deal). Hygienist appointments they'd have to wait 5 years.

Myself, I have private health insurance, and my dentist is rad enough to bill all costs to my insurance company so I don't have to pay anything extra when I visit (up to a certain amount per year, I might have to pay more if I needed something like a root canal). Still, I do have to wait a while when I book for an appointment; he's gets a lot of business, and is very experienced and good at his job (he's not far off retiring actually).

But that's for a "normal" appointment or something, or am I misreading something here?

Which reminds me, I have to call my ophtalmologue for an appointment for a check up of my eyes.

Feeling slightly better now. Earlier today when I was feeling cranky, I texted a friend to see if he and his wife were home this afternoon (they use the same number), in the hope that I could see them and drink too much tea etc. Got a text straight away saying they'd moved to the other end of Brisbane Anyway just got a phone call from the wife to see how I was, and also got a quick word in with their daughter who calls me "aunty" Ah, the simple pleasures

For my dentist? Yeah. I always tell myself that I'll get a check-up every 6 months I know that if I want to fulfil that promise to myself I'd probably have to call around the 5 month mark.
