meh! i chipped a cap on one of my front teeth this morning.....

[lunarx]

...and dont have the £ to get it repaired...:( any advice?

(i still have the chipped piece.) =( not what i need right now!!!

Quick scrub and superglue?

no superglue at home and village shops dont sell it:( may have to ask dh to get some before coming home... :(:(

won't the dentist do it for you, and you can pay him later? try pharmacy, they may do stop gap adhesive for it?

i've done and made matters worse, i've lost the chipped piece :(

smacks self

NEVER USE SUPERGLUE IN YOUR MOUTH. I'm afraid you can't repair a cap sucessfully, it will need to be replaced in full.

I did mine 14 months ago (2 months after my postnatal free dentistry ran out)

I just live with it as there is no way I can afford to even go to the dentist never mind have any work done.

getting it replaced in full is not an option:( i wish now i still had the nice dentist i had in the US, he would let me pay as i could..

lunarx you can get dentistry on installments here

private or nhs?

both I think

If you have an nhs dentist ask them if you can pay in installments (say £20 a week). If a patient is trustworthy (ie we know they will cough up the money, we do it at my practice).

horrible luck finding an nhs dentist:(

oh well!
