on an old root canal treated tooth and that no NHS

Thursday, October 30th, 2008
Q.
I am informed that I need an apicoectomy on an old root canal treated tooth and that no NHS Dentist can perform it also the local Dentistry Hospital can not perform it. Questions: Is the treatment really going to cost £500? What is the cost or is it a lottery? Where can I find a private dentist who is able to offer this specialist treatment without telephoning every entry of yellow pages? Why is it that an NHS dentist can’t perform the treatment but a private one can afterall they all have the same training ?

Dentists qualify with the same… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

would i get free dental veneers in the NHS

Monday, September 15th, 2008
Q.
Hi Julian, I’ve had a large gap in my front two teeth since I was a child, it’s about 5-6mm wide so it’s quite big. I was looking into getting Veneers but I’m not sure if they would make much of a difference with a gap that big. I don’t think I’d want my front two teeth to look much bigger either. What advice can you give me? I’m 18 and a student so obviously I can’t afford them right now but I’m not sure if I would get them free off of the NHS? Any help would be much appreciated.
