    I know someone who got a quote from the place that done Rooney's transplant, it was something bonkers like 20 or 40 grand, could have been in Manchester.

    So he is a consultant in a hospital, Dr with a Phd and as gay as a Mexican tablecloth, he starts asking them about what you need to do to get a job in the place.

    The best place in the UK (according to the research I've done) is up in Manchester, which is a bit of a pain for me.

    The worst part of the procedure is that you need to shave your head and then take off a couple of months so that you don't look stupid going back into the office. (or wear a hat which we clearly couldn't do at work...)

    Don't know how the trays will hold up at that level, mine are moulded to fit my teeth, worth a shot for 33 quid though.

    They aren't that bad but have been getting steadily worse over the past 15 years since my early 20s. My wife told me to sort them out the other day, and she rarely has anything bad to say about me (probably because she isn't really that interested any more....).

    Anyway, for £30-odd I guess it's worth a shot, and it's no stress, doing it at home.

    Now the hair transplant is a completely different story....

    The gels can be got online, you start on 10% and if your teeth don't get sensitive then you can increase. People have got badly burned using the wrong ones, some are made for 30 minutes and people put them in over night. ooch.

    You can go crazy with them and get really white teeth but people do start staring at them, I just keep them normal white.

    I'd be interested in the teeth thing but mine have that thing where they go a bit translucent I forget the proper term) so I'm a bit worried a)it won't work b)it might damage my teeth

    Has anyone had veneers and/or had their teeth adjusted with adult braces, etc?

    Ask MF. He is in the states often so is bound to have had them both done.

    To keep them white you have to keep doing it, one night a month maybe, white is not a natural colour for teeth.
