I need gum reshaping and have been quoted £1000 is this expensive ?

Thursday, January 31st, 2008
Q.
I have been told I need gum reshaping on 4 teeth and some bone removed at the same time from above one of the teeth,in preparation for 4 veneers (to close a central gap). I have been quoted £1000 for the gum work alone but feel this is quite expensive. I like the dentist and periodontist but am now worried that they are charging too much because they think I can afford it! Is there some kind of price guide for periodontal work? What do you think?

I am considerring veneers and have been quoted £475 for teeth whitening is this too expensive ?

Thursday, January 31st, 2008
Q.
Dear Dr Caplan, I am in the process of considering veneers on my teeth. I was told I needed a michelin splint first which I now use. The next step is whitening my teeth and I have been a little surprised by the cost of £475 as I had assumed this was a fairly strightforward procedure. I have already paid £700 for the splint so this additional cost before even considering the veneers came as a shock. The process from what I understand does not include laser treatment. My question is does this price seem fair and reasonable in your opinion? The dentist is not in the centre of London but in the home counties. Before I proceed I want to ensure that I am not being taken advantage of. Thank you for your assistance. Mr A
