Would I be able to get a gold tooth at the dentist? What are the chances?

Q.
hi if i was to go to a dentist privat and ask for a gold tooth would they do it? or whats the chace? cheers
A.
You should be able to make a cosmetic choice if you are paying. However it would be common to opt for a veneer rather than a crown as it is less destructive to the underlying tooth.

Probably because it’s an elective procedure and not deemed ‘necessary’ to maintain your dental health, which is what our “National Health Service” is meant to provide
