Can i get my teeth treated at a dental teaching hospital?

Saturday, September 5th, 2009
Q.
Hello, Quick question, I lost one front tooth due to domestic violence and other has a hair line fracture and apparently the root did not develop so the only support it has is the gum. I can’t afford to go private so I have no choice but to go to a Dental teaching hospital, the only one I know of is Guy’s and St Thomas’ hospital. Are they the only ones in London? And is the risk worth going to a teaching hospital. I’m worried I may come out worse than when I went in.

I’m very unsure about this – can you please let me know what your opinion is? Thank you.

The maximum amount that is rem… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
