Dental work in Eastern Europe

Re: Dental work in Eastern Europe

As a contrary, both my wife & I travel home from Poland to UK for our dental work. We’re both covered by company medical insurance but after several visits we’ve decided to use UK dentists, or a Kiwi in our case. Some of the issues were lost in translation but also the overbearing pressure to have much more work done than necessary.

This one sentence reminds me of something.
I once knew a girl who had about 7 teeth removed when she was in her youth. Not because they needed to be removed, but because she was registered with some dodgy dentist that was doing anything he could to make more money from the NHS for the "treatment" he was carrying out.

True story.

They should have a partner dentist in the UK. Not great, but better than getting on a plane three times over a 3-4 month period.

Fantastic actually - I had 4 implants and a full bottom denture done with them a few years back, cost me 10k whereby they sorted me out an interest free loan which I paid back over a few years.

I went to the dentist last week for a check up. My teeth are fine, but my gums have got to come out !!

My mother in law went to Budapest to have some work done. When she turned up for treatment they told her that they were unable to do the work for the cost quoted, they wanted considerably more. She did have a nice couple of days in Budapest though apparently.

I was informed by my dentist that my two front teeth are OK but the rest of my body needs replacing.

So have you got a full mouth of turkey teeth now or are they floating round like an astronaut in space like TITs friend?

Just a single gap halfway back. Got used to it now, by gum.

Brother had his done in Poland, where the technology is meant to be top notch, he says.

One of the boys in the pub went to Turkey to get his teeth seen too.

£7K lighter, 2 weeks home and they’ve started moving around his mouth

There is going to be lots of this in the future, the crooks will open up shiny new dentists and doctors with unqualified staff and many brits will fall for it and lose their money teeth, and everything else, then come back to the UK to put it right.

No, but I have a cracking pair of turkey breasts.

I changed dentists when I was young, they started filling the lot, previously none, my parents must have been dopey it's obvious looking back that they were overzealous for the money. I have had virtually no dentistry work since, other than check up's and one filling replaced.

Re: Dental work in Eastern Europe

My niece had a boob job in Turkey
Two grand instead of six over here
Three months after getting home they started seeping
She went to A&E and was told quite rightly to go back to Turkey as the NHS wouldn’t touch her
She ended up paying a further two grand in a private hospital in Liverpool
They were the only hospital that would touch her so be warned if you do plan on getting ‘Cheaper’ surgery abroad

I bet she felt a right tit having to have them corrected.
