What was bad was when last year I had a jelly bean at Iron Maiden, a nice soft chewy sweet. So I thought. I bit into it to discover it had the texture of a suger-coated piece of granite which caused the demise of that filling, along with a fair portion of the rest of the tooth! So, another filling in the same tooth and a £90 bill; I don't think I've had a jelly bean since and proof that sweets can be bad for your teeth!

I think we're very luck and in a huge minority to get to our age before needing one :) I still haven’t ever had a filling, but I’m very overdue for a check up.
