[quote=\"Augmum\"]Din know that nowadays dental charges are so exp.....a few thousands for an impant :yikes:


All these \"root canal\" and \"crowning\" seem new terms to me.....
I have Not visit a dentist for the past 10+ yrs....(touch wood )
Think i better make an appt with any dentist to get my teeth a good checkup.....but i really hate to visit a dentist.....

Same here, have not visit a dentist for the past 10 years... I whiten my teeth with those Brite White strips I bought from USA, very effective... no other dental problem so saved me the dentist visit.

hi-five .....
i take care of my teeth well....i brush thrice a day and do teeth flossing....

Had tried b4 home whitening kit but results rather subtle....
those Brite white strips which u bot in US, are they avail in SG ?[/quote]No lei... think not approved by HSA... it does thin out the enamel a bit, so now I use less often.
BTW, I got another type from Japan, DIY cast a soft rubber teeth mold and fill it with whitening gel, but have to wear for 8 hours... too long, no patient, I can only tahan for 1.5 hours max... maybe that's why not so effective.

But but but.... heeheehee, yesterday I just received my parcel, I ordered from eBay, a set of whitening gel that comes with a laser blue light, like what the dentist whitening kits... haven't tried yet, gonna try it on Good Friday

Wide price range... ranges from made in China/turkey... to USA/canada... US$15- US$305... I bought the mid range price one from Spain... very excited, can't wait to try on it...

PS. I am very into porcelain white teeth like those in Hollywoods, luckily my teeth is in good shape, only I wished they are whiter... a girlfriend did the GlamSmile, polished off a layer of her natural teeth to lay on a layer of thin film (porcelain?) now her teeth are really WHITE... She spent $18K for that set of perfect-whites! Not only the \"whites\", the GlamSmile corrected a few of her misaligned teeth.... like the HK singer Sammi Cheng. :please:

i've been lurking on this board for a while and I just thought I should warn you about the danger of most of the popular dental treatments today (yeah I know I couldbe tagged as a bringer of bad news)... and holding my breath now...


http://cancercompassalternateroute.com/toxins/root-canals-and-cancer/

I have alread proven this to be true.,, based on my experiences and my mother's experience (she have breast cancer) and a friend who is recently diagnosed with (hopefully) benign breast tumuours (6 yrs after she had root canal treatments)...

amalgam fillings also contain mercury==> very very bad for health..

try to find a biological dentist who understands the connection between dental health and our overall health...

Thanks for sharing your concerns with us. Will do more reading on this. Pardon me for my ignorance but who is a biological dentist in local context? I've never come across such a term before.

It's AUD500 per veneer... she did 20 teeth plus the correction of 3 crooked teeth... but I must say the result is amazing, she looks radiant with that perfect white and straight set of teeth, now she can wear the nude, the pale pink, the faint violet tone of lip colors and not looking sallow....

It's amazing how a set of teeth could've made such a difference in a person's look. :please:

Good for you augmum. That means your teeth are \"born\" nice and healthy and hv been healthy.

I have been taking my set of great teeth for granted for so long until people around me got wisdom tooth extracted (and then ended up got complication), root canal, implants, braces, seeing Orthodonists etc. Those hear say and see for myself really woke me up.
