Why is the cost of cosmetic dentistry more expensive in the UK?

Thursday, March 15th, 2012
Q.

why does an implant cost 4 times the amount it does in other countries. i want a nice smile and it seems i’d need to go abroad to get it,
if it was more affordable in this country more people would have it.
i need 1 upper implant, whitning and a few other bits, my teeth are not bad but i would like to improve them.
what is my most cost effective way of getting these things done. thank you for your time doctor hughes

Will my gold crown affect my chance of achieving a ‘Hollywood Smile?’

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012
Q.

Hi Mark

If i am honest I dont actually NEED veneers, my teeth are very healthy and of a good standard, However I am in the performance industry and there is always room for perfection.
However, I do have a solid white gold cap on my left canine which I wish to have replaced to… At the time i was told that this had been cemented on and will be permanent as my tooth had been filed down in order to complete this.
Tell me, will this effect me from getting the hollywood smile I am looking for and if not, what processes do I need to go through to obtain the perfect look?

I have a crown but would like to have my teeth whitened, what can I do?

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2012
Q.

Hi,
I’m 18 and have really bad teeth, they make me self conscious and insecure about my appearance. My front left tooth is a crown as I had an accident which broke my natural tooth. The tooth to the left of that is in bad shape, and possibly needs removing and a new one putting there. My teeth are also discoloured and this is a major issue for me these past couple of years. I haven’t tried any whitening products that you can buy etc because my crown matches the colour of the rest of my teeth so if I had them whitened then the crown right at the front would stand out. I just want to smile with confidence, and would like some advice on what I should do? Would it be possible to sort my teeth out in one day? because I don’t want to be walking around with even more dodgy looking teeth as I go to university and I would be really embarrassed. Hope you can offer my some advice. I am very self conscious about my smile. I am also very nervous!

What is the difference between a veneer and a crown?

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011
Q.

Hi There Dr,

I wanted to ask you, What is the difference between veneers and veneers? and which 1 is more beneficial?

Im very inconfident about my smile, even though, I dont have bad teeth or smile(Alhamdulillah), but the thought of having veneers or lumineers placed and giving me that perfect smile I want would be my dream come true.
The other question was, If i wanted to have this done? could I spread the cost over a period of time or is it a ‘one of payment’

Id appreciate a reple soon

Thankyou,

Take care,

Which would best treat my protruding teeth, veneers or braces?

Tuesday, July 19th, 2011
Q.

Hello,
I would like some advice on what treatments would be suitable for me.
My top teeth protrude greatly and have a large gap in the middle and a few smaller gaps around the sides. They’re also slightly decayed. Are veneers an option for me to get a better smile?
Can veneers actually help disguise/correct my overbite or would I need to consider braces instead? I desperately want a more aesthetically pleasing smile. Are there any other options you could suggest for me?

Thanks.
