    The method he described is a tray version where you have to sleep with the tray in your mouth or something to that respect? is this true / good? do u know of that system at all?

    Or would you recommend me going to a place like harley street or the like ?

    That's the system I use. I find it reliable & long lasting.

    Have another word with your own dentist . Going to Harley Street will have a huge premium to pay for the prestigious address.
    How to find a dentist.
    1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
    2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
    3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
    4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.
