Thursday, September 30th, 2010
Q.
When I was About 9 years old I had a back fitted brace, this did help a bit but I was told I had to get my funds slit and my k9’s pulled down and then my teeth would get straightened out, as I was 9 this sounded scary so I didn’t have it done. I am very very insicure now and hate smiling or laughing as my teeth look terrible. Would I be able to get this done now on the nhs or would I need to pay. And how much would it cost.,

Is the cost of implants I have been estimated correct, and what can be done for front teeth that have moved due to missing tooth?

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010
Q.
Hello Dr. Tennet, I would like to ask 2 questions please if you don’t mind. Question 1. I have quite a few problems with my teeth at the moment, probably due to neglect and not visiting the dentist enough, but I have 3 teeth missing on the right hand side of my mouth at the top, and I have been to see a cosmetic dentist who does seem to have a good reputation, although I have not been to him before. I have had a quote for 2 teeth to be replaced with implants. The quote is £1400 for each implant, and £1000 for each implant retained crown. A total of £4800 for 2 teeth. I would just like your opinion on the price please. I live in the Grimsby area of Lincolnshire. Question 2. All my teeth are fairly good at the front, except that years ago I had a tooth removed from the top left, and because of this my top teeth have all moved to the left and I now have one of my two front teeth right in the middle. In other words my two front teeth are not in the middle any more. Could you please advise me what is the best treatment to correct this, or as near as possible. Thank you Dr. Tennet. Yours sincerely.,
A.
