I need my decayed front and wisdom teeth replaced with implants, what is the cost?

Monday, May 23rd, 2011
Q.

Hi Rob,

Last year i had an accident and lost one of my front teeth completely and had the other snapped in half.
I have begun treatment and have since had root canal treatment in the snapped tooth, which has since grayed.

I have been wearing a denture for the last 12 months, but have always had the intention of implants.
I also have very decayed wisdom teeth and am in no doubt that they need pulling.

Firstly I would like to know if my wisdom teeth would hinder any treatments in the front of my mouth?

Secondly would a crown would be suitable for my snapped tooth with it being grey and having undergone root canal? (this would be to go along side an implant for the missing tooth)

And also, I am currently a NHS patient. Other than the obvious cost of the implant, can any of the cosmetic treatment i may be offered be covered by the NHS?

Thank you

I am 18 years old and have terrible teeth, can you help?

Monday, May 16th, 2011
Q.

Hi,

I am enquiring about ‘dental implants’
I am 18 years old and have struggled with my teeth all my life! I have no confidence because of them and have recently been put on anti depressants because of it.

The teeth a have a problem with are my 4 front teeth on the upper jaw. They are misaligned and totally yellow. the middle of the 2 front teeth actually fell out when i was 14 and now the filling is turning black. My upper jaw is also over shot so when i smile it is only the upper teeth that show.

I have discussed many things with different dentists but i feel the only thing for me is to have them removed and replaced.

Could you please offer me your advice as i am now finacially ready to take a step towards a nicer smile!!

Thanks for your time x

I am looking for a Hollywood smile, are they available on a payment plan?

Monday, May 16th, 2011
Q.

Good evening, I’m based in the Bristol area, and; I’m looking to get a hollywood smile.
I’m an actor/model and I know I’m missing out on roles and castings because of my teeth.
I’d like to know the lowest monthly payment plan for cosmetic dentistry.

I would need re-allignment/straightening/braces extraction, veneers and most likely white fillings.

I realize it’s hard for you to answer my question without a consultation, but I would prefer to know how much a monthly plan would be, so I know whether I can afford treatment- and avoid wasting your time.
Sincerely,

I was wondering about the cost of treatment involving an implant and 8 veneers?

Thursday, May 12th, 2011
Q.

Hi there Andrew. I am very keen to get an implant for my upper right tooth (4 from the front) to be replaced. As a teacher and part-time professional singer I get so embarrassed and just want to jolly-well smile again. I have a private filling on my front tooth replaced two years ago following a tooth being cracked in half as a teenager. I really need an implant and 8 teeth to be veneered and leveled out (my teeth at the upper front are about 1/1.5m in different heights). Ironically my lower teeth are near perfect and my childhood dentist, a charleton, never touched them! My ultimate question is this – to have the above treatment do you have any idea as to how much I would look at paying? The next step would then be to pluck up the courage after 1 1/2 years of not going to the dentist through shame!

Warm regards and thanks,  (30 years old)

I live in Canada but am visiting England for a few weeks, could I get a brace in England?

Thursday, May 12th, 2011
Q.

Hello Dr Safeer Butt. 🙂
I actually live in Canada but I was hoping you could still be of assistance in my particular case. I was just wondering how much it would cost me to get braces in England as i may be coming for a few weeks. As you may know braces are extremely expensive here and iwanted to know how much the prices are there. I dotn mind the traditional braces but a brief overview of the cost would help. Also how ong would it take for me to keep them on, and when can i remove them. Plus i know you have to get them tightened every month so can i just get it tightened in canada?
Thanks for your time Dr!

Can veneers work on my short, stained teeth?

Thursday, May 12th, 2011
Q.

Hello doctor,  I was just wondering about porcelain veneers. If i got them done and i was to get them redone 5/10 years time, would the price ever rise? and could i ever get my normall teeth back if i changed my mind a few years time? how old do you have to be to get them done and how well do you need to treat them? I would like veneers because my teeth are quite short and a little stained and i would like a nice new smile, would it be possible to extend the length of my teeth at all? Thank your for any advice you can give

I have been neglecting my dental care for years and now my dentist tells me the treatment I need will be expensive.

Monday, April 18th, 2011
Q.

I have been neglecting my dental care due to fear and finance. I finally got the courage to see a dentist because I want to be able to smile in photos of me and my first grandchild. As of now I avoid them and he is 27 months. I told the dentist that I went to that I needed affordable dental care and he said there is no such thing. He said that my dental care would cost in excess of $18,000. I know that I need a lot of work including periodontal treatment but I don’t trust him. He suggested that I get dentures, I am only 47. I am afraid of going to see another dentist. He gave me a printout of my xrays, is there any online consultations that are available. Thank you so very much for your time
