Can I get veneers done on the NHS?

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
Q.
Hello, Is it wise to get veneers? I am with a private dentist and really want them done as I am only 21 and have awful teeth with a big noticable gap between my two front teeth. I have got to the point where I dont like to smile in public. My dentist tells me I should have the procedure done at such a young age. Would I be able to get it done under the NHS as i feel its causing me psychological trauma?,

I have large gaps between my teeth and I also have chipped teeth. Will dental implants work, and is treatment cheaper abroad?

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
Q.
Hi there, I just have a few questions about cosmetic dentistry – I have been curious for a while now and would like to find out more about what you could do for me. First of all, my mother never got me into the routine of going to the dentist so as you can imagine my teeth have not been well looked after and this shows. I am pretty sure I would need a selection of teeth taking out so I was wondering how much it usually is to get dental implants? If you could tell me the general price for individual implants and the whole set that would be great. Also, I am only 18 (19 in a few months) – am I too young for this or is age not an issue? Secondly, I have quite gappy teeth which makes me paranoid to smile. Is there anything that can be done to close these ggaps? I also have chipped/mis-shaped teeth.. what can be done to improve the appearance of these? And again, what are the prices for all of the above? How much cheaper are the treatments abroad and do they use the same procedures as here in the UK? Thank you very much for your time. I would be very grateful if you could get back to. I want a beautiful smile!!,
