Why don't you check your policy, or talk to Trevor Hughes.

that's because I clean them and love smiling, I definitely do not want to look like this when I laugh

Last year there was a very good dental department at the girne state but I recall only open on certain days. Show up to date card when enquiring for appointment Or for serious dental work try the near east students, good deals if you can keep your mouth open for hours while its all being explained to them what has to and is being done.

Re Near East, I've had a few treatments there and the costs are reasonable. I've just been quoted 1776TL for the replacement of 4 caps. A check up with panoramic x-ray was 48 TL, scale and polish was 144TL and same for a white filling. That's all with 20% BRS discount. It can be a bit slow but apart from the check up all my treatments there have been 1 to 1. Obviously they will recommend as many treatments as possible but it's up to you to determine what you actually want.

Soner withdrew the edit facility a while back - then when I queried the move he re-instated it... now it's gone again.... It may be nothing more than an oversight but I have emailed and PM'd him...

That's what I thought that you meant...

You didn't say "have paid for a Medical Insurance Policy for 6 years"

Go into tax office through right door to lady facing you hand her your passport and she will check your employers contributions are up to date for you.
If not ask for a print out as you will have to give this to your bosses accountant along with your in and outs as your boss can defer payment when you have holiday. I now get mine regularly checked as once when I had policeman heel I had to pay 35tl!!! While it was sorted out.
