Dental implants - where can I find a really, really good dentist?

I'm in East Anglia. I had a terrible dentist who supposedly repaired two teeth - he actually ended up destroying them.

I was refunded £219 today for the course of 'treatment' which destroyed the teeth. I'll put it towards two dental implants. Or a crown and an implant, if I am very lucky.

Within reason, I don't mind where I go for the treatment. Even London, Essex, Cambs. I'd go further, to find a dentist who is a safe pair of hands. I'm really scared now.

Does anyone reading this have a dental implant? How long have you had it for? How much did the work cost? How experienced at implants work is your dentist?

There are some really awful dentists out there, as I know to my cost...

But there ARE some excellent ones too, surely?

If you would follow your dentist to the ends of the earth, - please spare a moment to advise a toothless old crone.

Thankyou very very much.

ps: With any luck I'll have two functioning repaired teeth by the end of January. First 'remedial' appointment is to be on 14th Jan.
