Would A Private Dentist Provide Me With A Well-Matched Set Of Partial Dentures? I’m Not Sure About My NHS Dentures.

Wednesday, May 28th, 2014
Q.

Hi Mark. My dentist tells me that NHS partial (2 front teeth) denture faux gums only come in one colour.
My old NHS dentures matched my gum colour.
He keeps telling me that my new dentures should look like my own teeth “should” look.
I have already paid for these teeth though I haven’t yet accepted them.
Should I ‘lose’ my fee and invest in private? Would a private dental technician be able to provide a well-matched set of partial dentures? I no longer care whether they fit well or not. I want the dentures to be unnoticeable to other people. My friends are amazed that all my teeth are not my own.

How Much Would My Filling Cost From A Private Dentist?

Wednesday, June 5th, 2013
Q.

I have been to see an NHS dentist and says the enamel on my teeth is badly worn out. Was given a fluoride toothpaste but there was no improvement. I think the best bet would be to fill it, and am thinking of going private to make it quicker cos my NHS dentist keep asking me to come back next week and then another week and so on. It is really annoying cos all I need is to sort the tooth out so the pain can go cos it is giving me headache in my head and pain in my ears. NHS is wasting my time. So I would love to go private and would like a rough estimate of the fees am going to be paying for filling on private treatment.

How Much Would A New Bridge Cost From A Private Dentist?

Friday, May 10th, 2013
Q.

I have had a bridge made and fitted on the NHS for my two bottom front teeth, I am not happy with it at all. The false teeth are “taller” than my own teeth, a different colour, keep coming loose ( have to keep going back to the dentist to have it re- cemented which costs me £18 each time) gap at the bottom which has left me with a lisp that is getting worse. In the last six months the dentist has put a white filling between my two front teeth as I have a gap on three occasions and they have all fallen out within two days. The previous white filling I had for about three to four years. I would appreciate a quote for a bridge for my two bottom front teeth and having a white filling to fill the gap in my two front top teeth. As a result of these issues I have gone from a confident outgoing person to a recluse.

Kind Regards.

My parents want me to receive my brace treatment in Pakistan, would I be able to have check-ups in the UK?

Monday, September 3rd, 2012
Q.

well my problem is that i want to have braces put in, however my parents want them to be done in Pakistan. And they also think that i have to stay there for the whole treatment (e.g check ups etc.). i just want to know if dentist in London would do my check ups instead of me staying there, because college is starting soon and i do not want to miss out. i need to know before my dad heads off back to Pakistan. and oh can you please help me, i got discolored teeth, they are because of lack of calcium my dentist said. i want to know how to hide them before i do a crown and veneer treatment! thanks for reading hope to hear from you soon!

Can I get treatment at dental schools?

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011
Q.

Dear Sirs

I have been having a lot of problems with my teeth for a quite a few years now and the NHS Dentist don�t seem very helpful at all.

I would like to find out if there are any dental surgeon out there that are looking for people to help them gaining experience.

A bit about myself 30 year old female single mother and my teeth are just breaking off I have had a tooth removed and another just broke in 3 pieces I have had about 3 root canals and loads of fillings.

Went to my dentist last week because I was having pain on my tooth and I had a chipped tooth now he fixed the tooth I was having problems with but refused to wok on the tooth that had been chipped and asked me to return in 3 months and have work done on this tooth again another tooth has broken and I said you know my tooth broke he replied by saying that it will need to be removed but they cant do it until 3 months time so I am left with one broken tooth and another tooth which has been broken and not much of it left which is causing me pain now and I don�t think I can wait 3 months to have this problem dealt with.

I have very difficulties in eating as both sides of my teeth are very sensitive and it hurts quite often when eating even if it�s an apple.

Please can you help me if there are any dentist schools I could join as I can not afford to pay private dental care

Many thanks for your time in reading this.

I need to fill a gap in my teeth. What is a cheap and effective treatment?

Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010
Q.

Hi

I have had my first molar back taken out and am looking for a solution to fill the gap. My dentist recommended a valplast partial denture @ £350 private as it was a simple solution. My rear molar (not wisdom this is still coming threw) is heavily filled and not much tooth there and might need root treatment yet. My thoughts were on th NHS I could have the root treatment + crown it, crown the other tooth and have a bridge. It is my understanding that all this would be at the 1 price of £198 (or £177 not sure) as I have read there is 1 charge for work needed under the same treatment.

Your thoughts on this option please?

Regards
