i'm currently at college and pl my age are sociable, go places, have a life and they always smile
i have one more year after this one finishes. even if i get dental surgery, invisalign straightening/orthodontics and veneers, it'll take over a year and i'll have left uni. i dont' know what i'll be doing then
if you've had dental cosmetic surgery was it worth it? i have no doubt dental surgery works better than other procedures so i'm not worried about effectiveness.
it's just that it'll cost a lot of money, though to be honest, if i sold everything of value i have, it would go a lot towards the cost if not fully cover it.
i'm just afraid if i spend everything i have and i still end up with no friends and girlfriends after? at least now i have several $$$ worth of stuff for solo entertainment and i've had no life since i was adolescent.Should i pay for dental cosmetic surgery?
there is no ponitShould i pay for dental cosmetic surgery?
I really think if you want to improve your apperance definatly go with invisalign because it fixes your natural teeth. by doing veneers on most people you can tell there fake teeth and it doesnt look good. i say go with invisalign and by having a nice smile it will improve your confidence. so good luck %26lt;3
it will last for the rest of your life. You will feel much better about yourself.

We can't see, don't take a vote !
Being able to smile without fear of showing bad teeth is priceless. I would say it gives a person more self esteem. I had it done and it really did change my out look on things. I have school mates who didn't even know who I was, just because of a pretty smile.
So I guess it's your call and remember it is expensive up keep to.
Its not worth it.
Appearance to me doesnt matter. Its whats on the inside. .. Hehe.
I am at the moment spending a fortune having 27 year old metal fillings replaced with porcelain ones and (as I didn't want to have healthy teeth filed down to make bridges) a new partial retainer with my 3 missing teeth on it!!! Seeing the difference already makes it worth all the inconvenience and time. I can smile and know that my teeth look great.
The main reason I'm having them done is because the old silver metal fillings were failing (falling out!) and once she'd done the two that broke and suggested replacing the others. I looked at the lovely white fillings and agreed because I can afford to do it. I've no dental insurance and I'm paying one heck of a lot, but I'm lucky enough to be able to afford it.
If you have crooked teeth, I'd advise you to get corrective treatment in the same way I advised my sons to get it for their front top teeth. That was definitely the first step to a good smile. And a good smile gives you a huge amount of confidence.
Any other treatment can wait until you are rich enough to afford it and have money left to live a life.

How much is cosmetic dental bonding ?
i was going to have all of my teeth cosmetic bonded, and i was wondering how much it might cost per tooth i was thinking 250 a tooth does this sound right How much is cosmetic dental bonding ?
It depends on where you live. I just spoke to a lady who paid $500.00 a tooth. It'll cost more if u get it in California and less in Ohio. It will cost more in Hollywood than it would cost in a smaller town somewhere in the valley. How much is cosmetic dental bonding ?
It all depends on what is ur problem and what has to be done. If u're talking abt cosmetic work go see a specialized dentist and find out. He is the only one that can tell for sure and don't forget to ask abot payment facilities.

Questions about repair (restorative) cosmetic dentistry - dental bonding?
Due to an eating disorder, I have lost enamel on my teeth and now need something called dental bonding. I'm not sure really sure what it is. I know they roughen the surface of the tooth then put some stuff on it... right? What is the outlines of the procedure.
Will I need to be numbed up? Will it hurt? How long will it take? etc. I'm very nervous.Questions about repair (restorative) cosmetic dentistry - dental bonding?
Yes numbed up and they prep the tooth and then place a tooth colored material over it

Does dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry options?
Such as putting braces and the likeDoes dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry options?
IT DEPENDS ON WHAT'S DONEDoes dental insurance cover cosmetic dentistry options?
Generally the dental insurance policy will state if it covers orthodontic work and how much it covers. Usually for a PPO type plan, the amount (say $1000 of coverage) is up to 50%, meaning when you have charges of $2000, it will cover 50%, up to the limit of $1000. If it's a DMO/HMO plan it will state if orthodontic work is covered and how much is covered in the policy.
For a PPO policy, the payments are made at 50% as they happen, meaning the installation is covered at 50% (which usually almost eats up a $1000 policy anyway) and then other appointments (not maintenance) are covered at 50% as they happen. Then whatever amount is left to pay for the monthly maintenance appts is split up over the length of the treatment (say 24 months) and each payment amount is usually less than 50% of your monthly bill. Confusing, huh? = )
So if you had $240 left for monthly maintenance, they'd pay you at $240 /24 = $10 per month, even though the cost for the appts may be $200. At least that's how the insurances we've had have worked.

How much does cosmetic dental work cost??
depends what kind of work u want, need some more details pleaseHow much does cosmetic dental work cost??
It really depends on what exactly you want done. For instance, cosmetic teeth bleaching could cost a few hundred, while having porcelain veneers put in for a full-mouth could cost one thousand per tooth. Also, the type of dentist you go to could also make a difference in how much you would need to pay. Put in more details about what type of cosmetic dental work you have in mind so that people will be able to give you a more precise answer.How much does cosmetic dental work cost??
A lot, but it is worth it for a beautiful smile!! :)
Finding the cosmetic dental work quite expensive here, I made a research for comprehensive options abroad in countries like dubai, thailand, india, singapore, etc. In my google search for 'comprehensive dental health care india' I came across a beautiful website Dental Care India Tour offering very attractive prices for various procedures I enquired about like dental implants, veneers, crowns, bridge, etc with tourism also thrown in at discount prices.
hiya hope fully this link might give you a good in sight to costs and work carried out to give you your perfect smile back.
www.nhs.co.uk or you can get a list of prices privately from your local dentists.
Sounds like you have a lot of dental work done. First advice,
shop around. Ask a few dentists for your options and estimates
of cost. Even if you have dental insurance it won't help a lot
because cosmetic work is rarely covered. If you don't have
it already, and you buy now, they'll have you wait months or
even years before getting a full benefit. Memebership
with eHealthPlus will save you 25%-60% immediately
