I’m Put Off By The Dental Prices To Fix My Crooked Smile. What Is The Cost Of The Six Month Smile Treatment?

Wednesday, August 21st, 2013
Q.

Hi, Dr Hughes. I have severely crooked teeth due to overcrowding, a couple are slightly twisted with one tooth pushed behind the rest, I had a consultation with a cosmetic dentist a while ago but was put off by the prices! This is causing me to suffer from a very low self esteem because I feel uncomfortable when I smile and would love to have this problem fixed. Would it be possible for me to have the six month smile treatment? I also have limited means, so I would only be able to pay monthly. How much would this cost (monthly) approximately.
Kind regards.

It’s Taken Thirty Years To Seek Advice – What Are The Treatments For Straight Teeth And What Is The Cost?

Wednesday, August 7th, 2013
Q.

After 30 years feeling slightly uneasy with the way my teeth look in the mirror I’m finally getting the courage to do something about it and I have always wondered whether it’s possible to have straight teeth and not have any side effects?
How much time does it take to complete the treatment? Is there any chance that I might lose any number of teeth? Is their any alternative surgical treatment instead of the recommended practices? Please could you tell me of different ways to straighten my teeth and the tariffs included. Please could you send me a reply by mail and how to contact you for your services.

How Long Does The All On 4 Take In The UK?

Monday, June 10th, 2013
Q.

Is there a all on 4 method where the teeth are fixed after implants are fitted and you don’t have to have teeth replaced after six months?
the reason for this is that I am in Australia at the moment and could not wait for six months. In Australia the dental surgeons will do the implant surgery and put the teeth in within a few days, complete.
But as we are coming to England for a visit we are trying to see if the cost are lower. Hope that you are able to inform me further and help me make the right decision.

Should I Have To Pay For My New Porcelain Crowns?

Wednesday, May 22nd, 2013
Q.

Is there a general period of time for which porcelain crowns are guaranteed for? This was done at a private practice. I have two crowns on my front two top teeth that were done 4 years ago by an emergency dentist in Hammersmith, London. The level of customer service there was atrocious so they knocked £600 off the £1800 bill. I am seeing the same practice again tomorrow and I’m hoping the repair/ replacement treatment will be free. The crowns they gave me are now cracking up and will not last too much longer. I am really disappointed with the level of service and standard of care I received. In your opinion, should I have to pay again for this treatment?

Would A Fixed Bridge Work For Me?

Thursday, May 9th, 2013
Q.

I lost my front 4 teeth in a car crash, and have been so sad since. Lots of semi useless devices fitted some better than others, none really good.
All other teeth on top jaw are ok filled here and there but roots ok etc. I do not want implants, but surely a fixed bridge could work for me ? I have lost all confidence in these awful metal contraptions with teeth on, and I am in the public eyes more and more. I am confident but this is just so killing my SMILE. Any help ? Advice? Cost of doing a fixed bridge and getting me SMILING again. Thanks.

Should I Have Cerec Treatment?

Thursday, April 4th, 2013
Q.

Should I have Cerec treatment done on the top four or six teeth, won’t this make the rest of my teeth look discoloured? Does one have to get the whole of the top and bottom teeth done?
Also how long do they last for and what is the price?
My teeth are not crooked, pretty straight with a small gap at the front which I would like closed up. I am now running of of things to type but I can’t send this unless I write 400 words which is pretty daft?

Thanks

I Am Dissatisfied With The Results From My Braces, How Much Will Veneers Cost?

Monday, March 11th, 2013
Q.

Hi, I have had gotten braces which I wore for two years but i’m still not happy with the results. They are better than they used to be but I do not think that they are anywhere near as straight as they could be. My two front teeth are not the same size and one is in front of the other. They are also in different lengths. Also the teeth which is in the back are slightly slanted so I am having trouble biting sometimes. I have gone to my local dentist and they have applied some kind of glue to elongate the shorter front tooth however it keeps on chipping. I would really like to get veneers on the top teeth.How much will it cost to get veneers one the single front tooth?

Are There Any Better Brace Deals Than The One I Have Been Offered?

Friday, March 8th, 2013
Q.

Hi,

I’ve got some x-rays, impressions and a cast from a clinic based in London.

They offered me a ICE ceramic brace on my upper jaw.
the payment is £1147 on the 1st visit then £100 each adjustment time until the completion.

The clinic will need to receive £200 deposit 1.5 weeks prior to the brace fitting.

– Bite raising 1.5 week depending on how the teeth and bone react

– ICE ceramic brace on the upper jaw/outside.

-And activation (includes material replacement)  £100 will be payable on each visit for about 12 – 18 months, so the full course of treatment will be in the region of £2447.

The cost also includes the brace removal and retainer. But I want a gum contouring to.

Do you know if any clinics in London could offer me a better payment plan?
And can I get some dental insurance or a dental loan anywhere?

All the best.

Friday, March 1st, 2013
Q.

Hello

I’m looking maybe to get all my teeth pulled and replaced by permanent dentures. Obviously I need to goto a dentist and get more information but depending on the cost for a complete set either on the nhs or private will depend if I want to enquire about it.
