Every year, thousands of people from the UK travel abroad for dental surgery. With the promise of affordable perfect gnashers, Turkey has become one of the go-to destinations for the Hollywood smile. But when Amanda from Belfast booked a trip to get some crowns done, it turned into a nightmare that took over 40 hours of dental repair back in the UK. Specialist dentist Dr Rhona Eskander advises on the red and green flags to look out for when considering dentistry abroad.

Also, medical tech. From a machine that can zap away your pain, to a heart rate tracker that can tell you how much effort you're putting into your exercise, we're joined by tech journalist Lara Lewington to find out if any offer real health benefits.

And the scammers that prey on people at their lowest ebb. Four years ago, Jo from Dundee was diagnosed with motor neurone disease. Keen to understand more, Jo joined a support group on Facebook where a fellow member offered a miracle supplement that promised a better quality of life. Sadly, it was a complete scam.

We also investigate the many and varied health benefits that CBD oil claims to possess. Is there any truth behind the hype?
