    If it’s restorative you could get it done for free. I did/still am undergoing treatment
    I’m with an NHS dentist and pay the standard NHS fees. But I had a problem with an infection in my top 2 front teeth. Which dissolved the bone around them this was too much work for my dentist. So she referred me to the nearest NHS dental hospital. Which is also a dental school. The consultant has pulled out my 2 front teeth, given me a brace with 2 teeth on. Which you can’t tell is false. Next he’s going to rebuild the bone and in the end I will have 2 implants with crowns on. The consultant said if I was getting this done privately it would cost £6000. It’s not going to cost me anything other than a few parking tickets. One thing that was a must for him to do the work. No smoking for 12 months before. If I start smoking again the treatment stops
