    Yes, a dentist.

      Yes it hurts and it's expensive!

      No!

        You can get very cheap cosmetic dentistry abroad.

        If you have a UK dentist they will be foreign anyway and charge you 3x the price.

            Yeah but if you have a problem you have a long way to go to get it sorted, other dentist not keen on sorting other dentists messes out.

            Long way to go if you have problems with it though

              A mental pole? Use a South African instead. There's loads and they are sane.

                As I already said, it hurts your gob and your wallet - a lot!

                I had three implants (at the upper front) done about 6 years ago. One of them needed repair within a year, so check that the work is guaranteed,

                  Just hop on a cheap flight back. Cheaper than a taxi to your dentist here probably!

                    I'm told they are upwards of 1500 quid each.
