I am looking for a good reputable dentist and hygienist

Saturday, June 28th, 2008
Q.
Despite being a regular visitor to the dentist, over the years I have endured considerable dental treatments, some of which have been as a result of poor dentistry. As I approach my late 40\’s I am considering cosmetic dentistry to improve the appearance of my teeth but feel I first of all need a good regular dentist that I can trust and who will help me take good care of my teeth. My children have fortunately not suffered in the same way as I have and I am keen to ensure they are also receiving good quality dental advice. Other than searching through dentists registered with the BDA, is there any way I can find a very good reputable dentist and hygenist who will be able to provide appropriate dental advice/treatment to myself and my family. I am prepared to travel outside my immediate area if this is necessary.

Several of my front teeth are worn from grinding can I get my teeth whitened

Friday, May 30th, 2008
Q.
I grind my teeth and several of my front teeth are wearing. I wanted to first get my teeth whitened before I did anything else, the dentist told me that due to having antibiotics as a child this wasn’t possible and I therefore would need 10 veneers on top and 10 on the bottom. The thought of having so many veneers scares me and its also extremely expensive, can teeth affected by antibiotics be whitened?
