Seeing Doctors, Dentists and Hospitals Overseas And Asking For Your Records

Problem
A member of my family needs dental work done overseas. the dentist wanted to know whether a dead tooth had had the nerve removed. She asked for the dental records.

the patient phone the home dentists and they were quite happy to send, free of charge, the dental records. They said they could not send the photos, old technology (and maybe too much time copying them?) but they emailed the dental records.

The dental records going back twenty years were an endless source of entertainment.

The letters OH appeared several times. As I suspected, this is not an exclamation of surprise, but a medical term. OH is oral hygiene.
