      Also most NHS practices wouldn’t provide these services anyway as they’re usually considered cosmetic. Even in cases when they’re not fully cosmetic (for example if someone requires composite veneers or crowns to fix a broken tooth, or if someone needs a dental implant), the NHS won’t always cover them, and when they do, they still cost hundreds of pounds per tooth.

Augustin is a top high-end dentist, expensive, but not as expensive as what you find in the UK. He has a state of the art cabinet, ultra trained ( Canada, Europe, etc), has clients from all over the world. It took me years to find him and I wouldn't change him for the world. He works only with the best materials and has an "easy" hand.

    I have been to The Dental Centre Turkey in Antalya….the clinic is state of the art and the level of care and consultation was excellent. This lady’s story is horrendous but you have to research carefully where you go and the clinic I went to plan everything with you. Dentistry is still dentistry there is no magic formula but the attention to detail and the results are exceptional at the Dental Centre Turkey. I paid £5400 for 23 crowns and two implants and the results are outstanding. Five years later my teeth are still perfect……but I stress it is vital to carefully research the clinic…..if you can only pay in cash and you are not fully scanned and involved in the planning then something is very wrong and you should not proceed.

      It depends on your age. Grinding down perfectly healthy teeth can go wrong in so many ways. There is no dental procedure that lasts forever. 20 years down the road, you will probably need to get it redone. Unfortunately, you won’t have much of your tooth left to work with. You may end up with dentures before 50. Placing crowns on all your teeth should never be done unless the tooth is severely damaged!

    This interview has nothing to do with reality.

If you choose to undergo a surgery in an unregistered place, you will surely suffer from consequences, but that is the case anywhere in the World.

      The very best in Turkey are the same price as uk. Dental tourism is the problem. Great technology but buying the best drill doesn’t make you a good carpenter. The amount of shoddy work being pushed out is alarming but you only hear the good, give it a couple of years then problems begin. Uk concentrate on keeping your teeth in reference to private care.

Until you’re in the position you can’t comment and for the record I originally paid 6k for 25 crowns which isn’t as cheap as others.

    I'm so sorry you went through what you went through. The dentists in the UK started to ruin my teeth when I was just 15, back in the day when just just filled everybody's teeth with that horrible grey metal, just for money they'd claim back off the nhs. I grew up in care, had a gap between my front teeth, got called gappy amongst other names and had low self esteem. I can sympathise with anyone who has low self esteem. This dentist himself had really yellow teeth, foul breath and said I'll do a brace (I had a bar brace) but I need to do fillings first 😏🤔. There was nothing "wrong" with my teeth, no toothache, no bad breath, all 4 wisdom teeth, he even said I had nice white strong teeth. But I hated the gap. I did question, but was ignored. Who was I to know any better at the time, I was the foster kid with my foster mum, who also never asked any questions. Now at the age of 56, I have crowns, 2 back bridges where other dentists continued to maul my mouth. I've since paid for white filling replacement, new better crowns but can't afford anymore treatment. Four perfectly good teeth, although had the "fake" fillings were filed down for the bridge each side after 2 teeth were removed. I couldn't afford an implant. I'd like an implant each side now and the 4 teeth crowned. They want £58 just to discuss my options. A total disgrace. You don't need to go abroad to get your teeth ruined, they do it right here in the UK. The only real positive is I can sympathise with other's and help overcome the lack of self esteem. Our test becomes our testimony, and only knowing the true Messiah, Yeshua, our LORD will give us our self worth through him. God bless and anybody going through a tough time. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

      Saw a dental documentary once a few years back and the presenter was like “a dentist surgery is a business”; never thought about it like that. So she went to her dentist who told her she needed one filling and that was it. She visited a few different places and they all told her she needed 4 or 5 fillings, a root canal, tooth scraping and a whole load of other stuff. It was on UA-cam. So it should still be on here somewhere.

      @@jessieb7290 thank you for your reply. Yes, I really can't stand going to the dentist now because they just try and con more treatment out of you. One of my daughter's had a back tooth removed 🤔, that was probably wrong, when she was 18. A few years later I paid for an implant for my daughter at a different dentist. She was very pleased with the outcome. I'd rather my daughter have the implant than myself, but maybe one day I will be able. My teeth look good and nothing wrong with the front teeth that were never touched, but the 2 bridges annoy me. All in God timing 🙏🏽🙂

      My old dentist told me I needed 4fillings, he did the first one and told me to book in for the next 3. Well I got back the day I had the first one and the day after when I could eat I had toast (cause I was worried about eating) and it crushed the filling. Then I got it sorted with another dentist (who knew what they were doing) and I was curious so I asked if I needed any more fillings. She said she couldn’t comment on another dentists advice, but she looked at the ones where he said I needed work and she told me those teeth were fine and I didn’t need any more fillings.
      So be careful who you go to. If they want you to get treatment straight away, personally, I see it as a red flag.

My new crowns from Turkey were brilliant… I was so happy. About 18 months later, I got my bottom teeth done in Turkey 🇹🇷… I Stupidly went to a different dentist, Who also just looked at photos sent from my phone. I was quoted £1000 for my bottom set. I also had to pay in English cash…and in I went, and there he was pulling all my teeth out. I was in so much pain, but he really wasn’t very sympathetic, I asked to be numbed up more, but he wouldn’t. I then get this temporary teeth, while I had to wait 1 week for the permanent teeth… when I went in to get this fitted, I found out he was fitting a complete bridge in my mouth… I thought I was getting individual crowns. it didn’t fit correctly, and he had to saw one of the back teeth off, As it wouldn’t sit correctly. I too had… and still have, the gap at the front, that gets food trapped, and this can make your mouth feel sore, and your teeth fitting tight… I really wish I had not decided to try and save a few hundred £££, The first dentist out there was brilliant, and made sure I wasn’t in any pain at all… Both of the dentist practices I went to, were very posh looking, and clean… it’s just that I should of questioned the second dentist I used… Because, before I went there, I didn’t even know what a bridge was…And now from personal experience, and looking online, I have found out that a full bridge is really not a good idea

      @@DirectorHMAN I had to save for a couple of years. Lost mine due to a failed root canal due to my appointment being cancelled while COVID was a thing. I did consider having them done over seas but, read a lot of people having issues with dentists refusing to work on their teeth if they had treatment in Turkey.

      Cheap, i was quoted £7300 for 2 implants last year, so found the Smile Dental Clinic in Slovakia, state of the art 2 implants £2800, one crown £350, no pain, not a bit of trouble. I asked the dentist why so cheap compared to UK? He sais it’s simple, in the UK you are charged far too much.

      Average price within the UK is ~£2k per implant. I did quite a lot of research and paid just over the average because the dentist carrying out the work had over 20 years experience and is very good.

    In Germany you can get braces as an adult with 3500€…..I think it’s worth the pain as it also adjusts any malfunctions with your jaw

    Private treatment is SO expensive and NHS dentists are rarer than rocking horse poo here in the UK . That’s why this is happening more and more , feel so sorry for this lady but she really should have done more research.
