I’m due to have teeth taken out and will need to be put to sleep as I’m petrified, but I’m worried if I’ll wake up after having the GA. How safe is it?

Please I need some reassurance about this

Q.

Hi
I’m 26 years old and have had 2 teeth removed which I regret as I didn’t know how much they cost if I needed new ones. Anyway, I’m very confused on whether I should have a bridge or an implant. If I do decide to go for an implant will it be very painful? And as I’m now living abroad in Libya do you advise me to do the surgery here or look somewhere else? Also I’m planning a wedding for April, do I have enough time?

Q.
Hi I have a gap between my front teeth and my side teeth were removed so I had braces at 14 and my ‘I’ teeth are now my side teeth. I want all my teeth whitened and either veneers or crowns put on the top 4. I have heard bad reviews on veneers because they can just ping off at any time and this can measure quite costly. I don’t like the idea of crowns because they can look very false. I am very particular about my appearance and take pride in it. I don’t want to make any mistakes but I don’t know what options are available. I want perfectly straight white teeth with no gap. I’m not looking for american style gnashers but I want something I can be proud of. Right now I’m not too confident. Can you help? ,
