small, but if you feel that... oh, wow, that is heavy. it's very heavy. the items, which were preserved in an oxygen—free environment, will then be dried and cleaned. most of the items recovered so far are small enough to fit into plastic containers like this, so it can be transported and treated here. the larger items will be put into tanks like this. this is one of the horn combs that we found. as you can see, it is quite a large comb but we think it may be used for wigs or even possibly horses, we are not honestly sure. also we had a quite small comb that was found, which is in lovely condition, actually. i willjust get it out. it is a double—sided nit comb. we have gone through iron stain removal with a very specific type of acid. once that's done, we're going to test different methods of drying the combs out,

so it could be solvent drying, air drying, orfreeze—drying. we'll have to test and see how the horn responds. it is quite an unusual material to survive in a marine environment, due to the sea water which can be alkaline, which horn doesn't respond to very well. this might be a small pot of wax but it is hugely significant, probably used as a seal on the letters of the future king. to have such a large esteemed, shipwreck to work on, it has been fantastic. i do feel privileged and honoured to work on this. i started my career working on the mary rose many years ago, working on the splendid finds from there, and these are comparable, if not better, actually, so it is an interesting dayjob. these items are being identified, stabilised and catalogued, the past slowly uncovered to protect and exhibit for the future. debbie tubby, bbc news.

now it's time for a look at the weather with susan powell. hello, exceptional heat to come for the uk in the days ahead, the potential for temperatures never recorded before. in response to this, the met office has issued a highest level red warning for the likelihood of disruption due to the heat as it persists through the day and the night monday into tuesday. we certainly start on a warm footing for monday after a fine night. temperatures initiallyjust as the sun comes up will be in the mid to high teens. and then aside from some cloud and patchy rain to the far north of scotland, we have got a day essentially of the sun beating down, adding to the heat, and a southerly airflow pulling up more warm air from the near continent. and then we reach that potential of up to a0 degrees somewhere in central and eastern england, 38 as far north as yorkshire however and across towards the welsh borders. tuesday could be hotter still across some eastern areas. it looks a little fresher towards the west but it will be increasingly humid as well.

hello this is bbc news, i'm ben brown — the headlines: an amber warning for extreme heat has begun in england and parts of wales. thousands of firefighters

continue to battle wildfires across europe — many people have died from the intense heat. police repeat warnings about cooling off in open water after the body of a 16—year—old boy is recovered from salford quays. the five remaining candidates for british prime minister will battle it out in their second tv debate later. a cargo plane carrying weapons has crashed in northern greece — killing all eight people on board. and in golf — rory mcilroy and viktor hovland share a lead at st andrews after the third round. now on bbc news, the bbc explores the tiktok trend "turkeyteeth" in which young people are travelling to turkey to get a brand—new smile by shaving down their natural teeth. a warning this programme contains images of dental procedures. another beauty trend is taking off on social media. it's all about getting that perfect smile by shaving down your own natural teeth.

people travel all over the world for their cosmetic dental needs, and one destination seems to top the list — turkey. on tiktok alone, the hashtag #turkeyteeth has over 100 million views. dental work there is much cheaper than the uk, there's sometimes a luxury hotel included in the price, and there are some quality dentists out there. but if you're thinking of doing this to your teeth, there are some things you need to know. i don't regret any of it. i'd do it again and again and again and again. i've turkey teeth and i'm proud of it. laying in bed, crying: _ as to what the- i was thinking getting these teeth done. if i did 20 crowns _ on a 21—year—old for the purposes of improving the colour, - i would have my license revoked.

i would be struck off. do you feel comfortable with people going to turkey to have similar treatment to you? i know — i know definitely i influence a lot of people to go to turkey and get their teeth done. it's such a hard question. there's no going back. it is what it is now, and there's no going back. i'm trishala. morning. hey, how are you? i'm an nhs dentist... ..and i'm a finalist for miss universe great britain. social media is a massive part of my life. so when there's a trend about teeth and beauty, of course i'm going to take notice. it's all about getting that perfect

smile by shaving down your natural teeth to pegs and placing caps on top. this is a crown treatment, and sometimes, up to 20 crowns are fitted in one go. there's nothing wrong with going abroad for treatment. there are good and bad dentists everywhere, ok. we have some of the best dentists in the world in turkey. just know all of the information. know that having kind of 60 to 70% of your tooth being shaved down puts you at a higher risk of having your tooth being extracted. if they're comfortable knowing that there's a chance that teeth will have to come out in the future, they need root canals, then that's completely up to them, but what worries me is when people are making those decisions to have the crowns without knowing that information. so, do people who are getting this procedure done know all the risks? many people travelling to turkey for this look are in their 20s, like tilly, who got back from turkey six months ago with 16 new crowns.

i'm smiling a lot more, i'm laughing, i'm not hiding my mouth, which i did constantly. i'm just more...i�*m more myself. it's given me my confidence back, i'm not hiding. i've got turkey teeth and i am proud of it! so, tilly, why did you want to go to turkey for dental treatment? so, ever since a young age, i was bullied for my teeth. so, i grew a complex against them, i didn't like them. i was called things like bugs bunny, how pretty i'd be if i didn't have the teeth that i had, i didn't really eat in front of a lot of people, or if i did, i'd be very shy about it. i won't let them see my teeth as much as i could. i'd always laugh with my hand over. ijust wanted an easier life, and not to look at myself and hate myself. if i get rid of what seems to be a reoccurring issue to everyone, which was my teeth, then the sooner i'd get it done and fixed, the better, and the happier i can be. did you really hate yourself because of your teeth? yeah. so, why did you choose turkey in particular? london, harley street quoted me,

like, up to ten grand just for the top row of teeth, and ijust thought, i can't do that, when it was so cheap in turkey, like, not even a quarter of that price, so i thought i'd be better off going to turkey. plus, it were kind of like a little holiday on the side! yeah. for this documentary, the bbc surveyed members of the british dental association — in other words, dentists — and 1,000 replied. 983 of those 1,000 dentists listed cheaper costs as a reason patients went abroad for dental treatment. so, you just mentioned it was like a holiday. so, tell me — how did you contact the clinic in turkey? we communicated over instagram. there was nothing else, then she did send, like, you know, legal documents and stuff through e—mail, but everything, chat wise, was through instagram. is there anything you wish you did differently? mm...no. done it sooner! get it done sooner. wish i didn't wait till i was 22.

have you seen a dentist in the uk since you've had the treatment in turkey? i actually have, yeah. she just basically shouted at me for it, was like, "why have you had that done? "you're so young." and she just basically said that, "i'm making you aware "that we will never ever touch them teeth that you have had "done in turkey, ever." this is what i think about uk dentists. like, some of us aren't eating, and we're not going out to public places because we don't want people to see our teeth. we're depressed, we're crying. you're not seeing what's going on in our bedrooms behind closed doors. don'tjust shout at us when we're coming into your practices. like, understand why we might have had it done. just be a bit more sympathetic with it. you know, tilly's given me a better understanding about why people are actually doing this. she had genuine, genuine concerns and insecurities. she wasn't brushing her teeth cos she didn't want to look in the mirror. she wasn't eating, she wasn't eating in public. she wasn't laughing, she wasn't smiling.

she said she wouldn't do the interview with me today if she had her old teeth. it's changed her life massively. tilly really did know what she was getting into. she had done her research, yet she didn't realise that her dentist in the uk wouldn't touch her turkey teeth. is that the same for all dentists in the uk? i'm here in liverpool to meet m], the director of a popular cosmetic dental practice. from the get go, i must make it very clear that not all dentists in far—flung places and these dental holiday destinations are bad dentists. completely agree. the overwhelming majority of the dentists that practice in these countries are ethical, they're professional and they're very good individuals. this clinic receives two to three calls a day from patients who have had dental treatment carried out abroad. some patients call when they're in pain. they're getting inflamed gums, bleeding gums, or they can't floss because their crowns

are stuck together. 597 of the 1,000 bda dentists we surveyed said they had treated both patients with crown complications and seen patients who visited turkey for their dental treatment. so, what is your response to these patients that are calling, asking to come to your clinic for help? of course we want to always help patients that are in pain, but the treatments that we can do for the work that has been done is often very, very limited. at the end of the day, if we have a patient who is not our patient call us up and say they've had work done in turkey, it is much easierfor us to simply not take that patient. at the point at which you inherit that patient and you do something, that's when the problems will start, and that's when you make yourself liable. but it leaves the patient in a very vulnerable, very difficult position, trying to scramble around for help. they simply don't have the funds to go and rectify it properly. fixing the damage can be costly to patients and to the nhs.

nearly one in five of the dentists surveyed said the repair costs exceeded £5,000, and over 346 said the remedial treatment was provided by the nhs. so, what would you say to a 21—year—old who maybe is watching this and thinking of going to turkey for dental treatment and to get 20 crowns fitted — what's your advice to them? sure, you can get a bargain, you can get maybe the look that you want, but crowns like that don't last forever. you have to be prepared not only for the risk, but also, for the cost. if i did 20 crowns on a 21—year—old for the purposes of improving the colour, i would have my license revoked. i would be struck off. mj's right — nothing in dentistry lasts forever. studies show that after 15 years, a quarter of teeth that have crowns need to be removed. nobody over there at any stage

said to me "you need "to replace these teeth." it was, "oh, they're a lifetime warranty" — lifetime, lifetime, but in actual fact, lifetime is ten years. lisa first had her teeth done in turkey over ten years ago. she went back last year to have 26 new crowns fitted, and documented the whole experience on tiktok. hi, back from turkey with my turkey teeth. day 20 of these beauties. i can't eat as normal. day 25... sighs day 25. you really see that the infection now has gone into my face and my chin. yeah, i'vejust literally been crying... ..been laying in bed crying - as to what the- i was thinking, getting these teeth done.

i was at work one day and i could feel this lump gathering in my chin, and i was like, "oh, my god, what is it?" so i went to the dentist, he took an x—ray, and i could see the abscess, and i was like, "this is big," and he said, "yeah, this is big." and he said, "look, we're gonna put you on an antibiotic and we need to clear this," but he said, "you'll have to "have the root canal." so that day, i booked the root canal. how long did that pain and discomfort last? cos there's people watching, probably wondering, "ok, "so i'll be in discomfort maybe for a couple of days." what was your experience like? oh, i'm still in pain. yeah, like, iwould still have niggles. and it's been six months. i've only recently discovered that i have a full set of crowns in my mouth. these were sold to me as veneers and i've a full set of crowns. only a couple of months ago, you realised you had... one month ago. one month ago, you realised you had a... a full set of crowns. so, for over ten years,

you thought you had veneers? yes, and everyone walking around tralee with their turkey teeth thinks they have veneers! do you know the difference between crowns and veneers? i do now. tell me what you know. there is so much filing down — that's why i have crowns. with the veneers, there's minimalfiling. having a crown is taking away 60 to 70% of healthy tooth tissue. that's a lot of healthy tooth tissue, and that puts you at a higher risk of having the nerves in the teeth dying, a higher risk of having a root canal. if a veneer fails, the chance and the risk of that is a lot lower because you've preserved so much more healthy tooth. would knowing that have changed your decision? yep. yeah, definitely. um... i could feel myself get, like, welling up. yes, because am i going to have teeth? yeah. how long are they going to last? like, i've kind of resigned myself to the fact that i am

going to have dentures. yeah, i'm going to have dentures. all we'll say, lisa, is you don't know that — just yet — you don't. i don't, but... you know, there's so much, like, my teeth are gone. you know, they're filed down so much, and, like, if they'd just given me that information while i was there — i never knew that — i thought once they put the teeth into your mouth, that was it, you were never going to have any problems. they never said, you know, that your teeth can die, that you can get — they never said anything. they never told me anything. not 11 years ago, and not in september �*21. getting a full mouth of crowns, like tilly and lisa, is a big decision, and it clearly can have long—term consequences. i'm very curious because the people we've spoken to have said they've been given their definitive treatment plans byjust sending

pictures of their teeth via instagram dm, so they haven't really had any conversation with a dentist or anything. they've just simply sent pictures of their teeth. so, i'm curious to put this to the test myself. so, what i've decided to do is take a few pictures of my teeth and i'm going to send them to a few dental clinics in turkey. we sent the same message with exactly the same pictures of my teeth to 150 cosmetic dental clinics in turkey, and for comparison, 50 cosmetic dental clinics here in the uk. and. . .sent. social media is notjust being used to contact clinics. it's also where people are getting their inspiration. and i can't ignore some of the best—known turkey teeth in the country — jack fincham. i absolutely love my pearly whites. i went all the way to

turkey to get these. i come back with a winning smile and a nice little holiday. the weekjack appeared on love island, google searches for �*turkey teeth�* spiked massively. while i was there, this is now the first time that one cracked. while you were in the villa? yeah. so you know the water bottles, right? and this is honestly god's honest truth, i banged it on the tooth and itjust — a little hairline crack up the middle of it. this was only about a week in! jack, can i have a look at the pictures that you have from turkey? listen to the drills. wow! they've taken away a lot of healthy tooth structure. so, can you see how tiny those stumps are? they are small. yeah. did they tell you this is going to put you at a higher risk of having things like root canals, higher risk of having your teeth taken out? you know, they mentioned all this stuff and itjust didn't put me off and, again, it was for cosmetic purposes, so it's probably a little bit — being a bit vain.

since jack had his teeth done in turkey, he now knows there are other ways to get the same look, like composite bonding, which rarely requires shaving down your natural teeth. so, my little brother's got his teeth done, but he's just got composites, and he got them done in england. honestly, like, i'm really happy with my teeth, i love my teeth, but going back, if someone said, "would you have composite bonding or get the crowns done?" yeah, i'lljust have the composites. do you feel comfortable with people going to turkey to have similar treatment to you when you know that maybe deep down, if you had to go five years back, you would have chosen composite bonding? the reason i say that i'd go for composite bonding now is because it looks exactly the same, it's a lot less invasive and it's quicker. but if you asked me, am i happy with my teeth? yeah, i'm really happy with them. so i think it's fine that i've influenced people to go out there. as long as they're going to, obviously, a credible place, i'd definitely say do a bit more research, don'tjust dive into it. but, yeah, ijust think there's nothing wrong with it. one sec... jack said it himself — he might have chosen a less invasive

procedure if he knew about it. so, are clinics telling patients all the options? it's been a few weeks since i sent off those pictures of my teeth to over 150 dental clinics in turkey and over 50 clinics here in the uk. today, the producers have told me we finally have the results of this experiment, and i'm super excited to hear what they are. but i wonder — what would a uk cosmetic dentist suggest for me to get the turkey teeth look? i'm getting a consultation from dr manrina rhode. treatment plan wise, we're not drilling any of your teeth, you're 26 years old, i don't want to touch them. it's already a beautiful smile. it's small changes that we can make to really get you perfect. it's going to look great. so, they call me the veneer queen, and you know how much i love veneers. but for you, trishala, no veneers. and crowns? definitely no crowns!

0k. we reached out to around 150 dental clinics in turkey. i know. wow! and 50 clinics here. 0k. oh, what?! yeah! i know. lots. 0k. we've been very busy. yeah! we've sent them pictures of my teeth... 0k. ..and ijust took myself with my iphone. 0k. so you don't even — you haven't seen them? i haven't seen them. 0k. this is the big reveal. and obviously, afterjust hearing your very minimally invasive and conservative treatment plan, i'm really curious to see... yeah, me too. maybe all 200 clinics have said the same thing. 120 turkish clinics responded to us, and so did 3a from the uk, and some of the responses from the turkish clinics blew me away. so, the first one... 0k. ..it says, "our doctors suggest to change all your teeth, "28 zirconium crowns." oh, my god, that makes me want to cry! and zirconium! are you guys joking? a whole new...a whole

new set of teeth. it's so shocking. it sounds like i'm overreacting, but i'm feeling really like...wow! 28 zirconium crowns! for anyone to suggest that for you... and if you weren't a dentist and you didn't know better... let's see the next one. "we just need you for two days." wow! it takes five weeks! it takes five weeks for veneer... really? yeah. five weeks... five appointments over five weeks. i can't even read this one. "crowns...| think you need it." you need it?! that isjust...how rude! you don't need it! how rude! you really don't need it! ok, the next one. "we have four dentists who are experts in their fields. "they say your teeth are fine and you shouldn't "have anything done. "it would be a wrong intervention." so the fact — this is what i'm saying — it's not dentists in turkey. we've just gone from "crowns, i think you need it" to "it would be a wrong intervention." yeah, that's nice. i've just skimmed this page...

yeah. i'm not looking, cos i'm waiting for you to say it... 0k. 70 of the 120 turkish clinics that responded to our message offered a treatment plan that involved me getting crowns and veneers. wow. you're more likely to be offered crowns and veneers than not. if i was... i know we did this as an experiment, but if i was genuinely insecure about something and i... ..and a practitioner or clinic told me, "you need this to make "that better," i wouldn't think twice, because you trust these people. how many uk clinics do you think responded with me needing crowns or veneers? mmm...20%? none. none — ah! wow! i do understand why lots of different people travel abroad for cosmetic dentistry. it's more expensive here in the uk. just look at jack. he's really happy with his results. tilly gained so much confidence.

but my heart breaks for lisa, who says she wasn't informed of the risks, and now that decision affects her everyday life and she regrets it heavily. and that's what has always worried me about this trend. before you make any major decision about your teeth, know all the risks, know what treatments you're getting, and once you get it done, know there is no going back. hi, guys. yeah, so i got hundreds of messages, yeah, asking me how am i. guys, i'm pretty much the same, and, yeah, just... ..just kind of getting through each day, just hoping today is not going to be a day of pain and, yeah, i do take painkillers every day.

hello. the uk faces the challenge of extreme heat through the next few days. the met office has issued a highest level red warning with the potential for the heat both by day and persisting overnight to impact how we go about our daily lives.

there is a significant chance that we will break the all—time temperature records for both england and wales, and it is looking increasingly like we may do so in scotland too, in the days ahead. sunday, in the sunshine, we have generated plenty of heat and through the course of the evening and overnight, yes, it will abate but still very warm air stays in place across the uk, our lows falling in some areas no lower than the high teens. so we start off with very warm air and then through monday, we apply sunshine and we are also on a southerly air stream, pulling even hotter air from the near continent. basically, a day of unbroken blue skies and sunshine aside from a little more cloud across northern scotland where it will be cooler. but it is these temperatures that are concerning us most. particularly across a core area of central and eastern england, we are looking at highs of maybe 41 degrees in the odd spot on monday and then through the evening and overnight, look how the colour lingers on our chart.

we keep the yellows and ambers. these are our overnight lows. bear in mind for most of the night, temperatures won't fall this low. this is as low as we go and this is at the end of the night. for much of the night, mid—20s across the uk. so we start off again with a lot of warm air in place on tuesday. through the day, we are going to have weather fronts trying to come in from the west. they eventually will usher in cooler air behind them but as they come in, there could be some heavy and thundery rain. more critically, though, that very hot air will be subjected to an injection of humidity, so if anything, it could feel more unbearable, particularly across a large central and eastern swathe of the uk and i think on tuesday, in some spots, it could be even hotter than monday. through tuesday, overnight into wednesday, we will, though, start to have fresher air pushing in from the atlantic. there will be some rain for a time but no great amounts, sadly. the chart here indicates the 24—hour rainfall period, tuesday into wednesday, many areas barely seeing enough to wet the ground if they see any at all. but the big difference is, it will feel fresher

for all on wednesday.

this is bbc news. the headlines at four. an amber warning for extreme heat has begun in england and parts of wales. people are being urged to take necessary precautions. thousands of firefighters continue to battle wildfires across europe — many people have died from the intense heat. police repeat warnings about cooling off in open water after the body of a 16—year—old boy is recovered from salford quays. the five conservative leadership hopefuls will go head to head in their second tv debate this evening. a cargo plane carrying weapons has crashed in northern greece, killing all eight people on board. translation: there were flames, we were scared, a lot of cars came| but they could not approach because there and in golf — rory mcilroy is in the lead at st andrews
