I’ve been quoted £7000 to treat my teeth because I have severe acid erosion and grind my teeth, are there any cheaper alternative?

Q.
Hi,i have quite severe acid erosion and i grind my teeth,ive attempted treatment on the nhs but as u can imagine they are not intrested in the cost of it.I have consulted a private dentist and have been given a ball park figure of 7 thousand pound which is a lot of money .I wonder is there and other options that i could consider because the rate my teeth are eroding i reckon ill have no front top ones in a few years and the back ones are pretty much gone as i have to use them for everything.I have bite problems and my mouth is small i cant open it very much ,any advice would be appreciated
A.
I am afraid that this question falls outside the remit of this site. My advice would be to shop around to get an idea of fees but I would be careful shopping on price alone when it comes to health care as the management of this type of problem can be quite complicated and as such is unlikely to be cheap.
