Cosmetic Dentistry -- Choice of country

Mac - 01 Oct 2004 13:39 GMT Hi, I'm thinking about having some cosmetic dentry done, perhaps whitening, maybe a vaneer, etc...
Anyway I was considering the reputations us Brits have for our teeth and thought that maybe the root ('scuse the pun) of the problem was with our dentists (this isnt intended as a flame bait post) and that maybe I should look towards the US or elsewhere in preference of their experiece in cosmetic dentistry, and perhaps there may be benefits in price reductions too?
Does anyone have any opinions on this?

Nah, the root of the problem is the system. Americans are willing to spend an appropriate amount of their hard-earned money on dental care. The profession follows through by developing sundry high tech alternatives.

at least there is no Taking The Joel ......
They accused me of taking the Michael..(Michaels a joke, a piss take if you like, except when its the Minister of Finance.......then again, maybe then as well) Yeah, I was taking the Micheal out of a favourite Aussie cricketing legend. Wonder who that could have been?

Gidday...just catching up on a few smaller issues, and tossing in a couple of jokes. The following is one courtesy of the Minister responsible for ACC. It was included in her comments in response to our Editors letter to her, her reply was inadvertently omitted from her comments that were actually published
"ACC has a range of remedies available to resolve issues with individual claimants. Claimants can raise issues arising since 1 February 2003 under the Code of ACC Claimants' Rights. "
Yaaaahahahahahahahah..............Good one. Anyone else, anyone who has a grievance going back before then, can get stuffed.
I got a couple of complaints from a couple of Aussies about my gag Gidday Mum.

All those Boikies waving pro South African flags at the cricket at Durban last night, have to learn to spell all over again. "South Africa Reigns." is now "South Africa Rains." Yaaaaaaahahahahahahah.....good one.
Okay...how about this then..."The Prime Minister, Helen Clark is considering putting up funds to assist in the lodging of a New Zealand challenge for the next Americas Cup."
Yaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahh.
She probably doesnt realise that it isnt for another three years. She wont be around by then. Yaaaaaahahahahahahahah....I like that one.
What about ACT, the scam smashing, perk busting machine. Biffed out Donna, but not far enough to ruin the funding she attracts for the party....now thats integrity. Thats real integrity.
Yaaaaaaahahahahahahahaha
And the Greens..."Bugger Mable, the Kiwi Greens have boycotted the Parliamentary, lunch Love. Itz ardly worth goin. Ya know those hairy armpits in ball frocks really turn me on. I think we may as well give...whatziname.....Helga...Heidi.......Helen, a call and take a rain check.
That might be so John, but I dont like it. It masks the seafood. Youd never know if it wuz fresh Luv."
Yeeeeeeeehahahahahahahahaha...phew
I still think though, that the joke of the decade, and one we should really share with the world, is OSH getting upset by.....wait for it....wait for it....Bob The Builder. because he wasnt always safe. What he did on video or in the little kids books. Geeezzzzzs, that really is a classic. It even tops the comment from one of our real close-up Ministers, that OSH would be policing brothels....................Yaaaahahahahahahahah....yaaahahahahah. Bugger!
And theres always at least one lump, even in the best made porridge. Heres the lump in this one.
Well done Lianne Dalzeil, Minister of Immigration.
The Columbus Academy.'
Dumping ground for Japanese problem youths.
How did they get in?
Who took a back-hander?
Who is bloody incompetent?
We were lucky this time. They killed one of their own. Get your act together Minister. Your Department is a disgrace. Too many old farts. Too many of the Old Girls Club. Have a cleanup before its too late.
Unfortunately, you are the joke, but no one is laughing.

Most, if not all, of the dentists have completed postgrad training/degrees in cosmetic or restorative dentistry, either in the UK or USA, and are committed to further professional training in current and new techniques/materials.
Cost-wise I doubt you'd see any savings by getting the work done in the US, particularly once you take into account the travel & accommodation costs. Worse still, if anything goes wrong you are gonna have one HELL of a trip back to the dentist to put it right!
Hope this helps!
