Q. Hello, I am 39 years old and I have been wearing braces for about 15 months. During this time, I have noticed that each side of my face has become gradually wider. It was not until recently when I started to look at some of photos of my self that my face has appears quite larger. It appears that the angle of my jaw has moved away from my ear and my jaw is a bit more pronounced. I will say that I am quite depressed by this. I don’t look the same as once did prior to braces. I don’t like to smile because when I do, the sides of my face projected out as if my masseter muscle has been on steroids. Also, my cheek bones ball up when I smile. I don’t understand why this happening and I am searching for possible answers. Thank you for your time
A. I’m not sure whether this is direct consequence of the brace but you should speak to your orthodontist and see what he thinks.

Q. i am 42 yrs old and i have not been to a dentist since i was about 13 or 14 yrs old . i had alot of fillings done at that age and now i think they are all starting to fall out . but a few days ago i was eating something and i felt something real hard in my mouth only to discover it was a part of my tooth and some filling . when i checked in my mouth there is 2 teeth that seem like they have no back to them ,just seeing filling. please tell me that i can have something done to fix this . i know i have waited along time without getting anything done but u all know seeing the dentist can be very expensive and not all people can afford this . but right now i am hoping and praying that my teeth can be saved no matter what the price . please let me know if this is normal or is there somehting more that may be happening . its just the 2 close teeth right now but i worry that its the start to all of the fillings falling out .
A. This often happens to teeth with old large fillings, the fillings leak and corrode and decay gets underneath cusing the tppth around to weaken and break
It sounds like you will need to consider porcelain crowns or inlays to restore the teeth and to get the rest of the teeth checked out is a real priority now.

Q. my son was attacked and he has braces on and he has teeth missing from the attack and he has a lot of decay going on now///the crime victims assisstance is gave the go ahead so now I am trying to find somewhere that will work with me and my son to get the braces off and get him back to smiling again
A. It sounds like your son needs to be fully assessed so a long term plan can be made to get your son smiling again. The decay will need to treated first then possibly implants to fill he spaces. How old is your son? You can send me some some photos or come and visit my practice if you need more advice.

Q. My daughter is 13 years old 4years ago she fell roller skating and had a type 3 fracture on her top front teeth. They have both had a root canal and have been bonded, We are starting ortho treatment to a severe overbite and protruding front teeth. And crowding My question is will moving the teeth in treatment cause the bonding to crack or cause root resorption? The ortho Dr has been doing this for 27 years he knows its a special case and even is taken precautions by putting brackets on the front tooth for more stregnth. We have been through so much and do not need anymore to worry about. She starts headgear next week I am just afraid those 2 front teeth will crack or fall out Any advise?
A. It sounds like the orthodontist has a lot of experience and should be able to keep an eye on the teeth as the treatment progresses, it sounds like the orthodontic traetment is necessary not just for cosmetic reasons and will help reduce the likelyhood of trauma to the front teeth in the future.

Q. I have just had a new gold crown fitted to an upper molar (1st tooth on top) and I have a problem when my teeth are together when it touches and slides to the next opposite tooth and causes a sharp pain from touching the filling on the opposite tooth.
A. i would recommend you see the dentist who fitted the crown, as pain should not be occurring.

Q. Hi I have been bulimic on and off for a few years now. I have a huge fear of dentists but went last week. I was worried the dentist would be able to tell that I’m bulimic but he didn’t say anything, so does that mean he probably couldn’t tell? Also, I don’t think I have lost enamel on my teeth but my top, front teeth appear ’see through’ at the bottom and have really bad brown stains on the back of them. Is this caused by vomiting or is it just inproper dental hygiene? I wanted nto ask my dentist if I was doing any damage (as I also need several fillings and a root canal) but I was too embarrassed. Thanks for your help.
A. Hi
I would recommend you ask your dentist. This is the reason you are seeing him/her….to look after your mouth. So dont be worried , as they will have your best interest in mind. It is very difficult to give you advice in this situation without looking at the mouth.

Q. Hi I have recently been for a consultation to find out if I am suitable for Invisalign - and I am. I am concerned though about proceeding (which I definately want to do) having only had advice and costings from one person. Do you recommend having a consultation with more than one dentist? Or is anyone listed on the Invisalign site safe to proceed with. I am happy with the cost I have been quoted but would rather pay less if I can! Many thanks
A. HI
If you do not feel comfortable with the dentist you saw and wish to seek a second opinion, then you have the right to do this.

Q. I had an impacted wisdom tooth that has a big hole already and the fact that i am 32 weeks pregnant. recently my dentist put a temporary filling and the odd thing after a week it started to become painful again and occurs only when i was lying in bed and about to sleep while i am standing it seems nothing is wrong with my tooth… why is that happening????
A. The tooth probably has an infection if it gets very bad it could be removed but obviously it is better to try to wait until after your baby is born. Your dentist could clean the inside of the tooth out to reduce the pain. Sometimes when a hole is just covered up the infection builds up more so becomes more painful.

Q. hello, i’ve been advised by my orthodontist that i need my jaw broken resized and then set in order to correct my overbite. Is this something that you would be able to do also can i have a ball park figure as to cost. thank you
A. hi. This is a proceedure that is done in hospital under a general anaesthetic. You should ask your Orthodontist to refer you to an oral surgeon for a full and proper quote.

Q. I am a lady of 35 who wants to straighten my teeth in a cheap way? how much is the cheapest way?
A. It really depends on how crooked your teeth are and what finished outcome you desire.
Orthodontic fees range from £1500-8000 or even more depending on what is necessary. I suggest you have an orthodontic consultation to discuss your needs.

Q. Hello Safeer, My two upper front teeth are crooked, I’ve spoken to an NHS orthodontist who recommends braces but I am 27 and would rather avoid that! Is it possible to have the teeth removed and implants implanted? I will also require NHS surgery to correct an underbite, would it be possible to integrate NHS surgery with private implants? Lastly what would be the cost if the implants were doable? Thanks for your time
A. hi
it is not possible to comment on the underbite treatment without seeing you.
implants cost 2200 per tooth approx.
have you considered invsalign braces as this will address the cosmetic concerns with braces
the nhs does not allow the mixing of private treatments

Q. I was wondering if there was anything more permanent that veneers and something that covers the whole of the tooth. Basically my mouth is a mess, my teeth have always been weak my first filling was at the age of 5 on my milk teeth and every other time I went to the dentist I would always end up with a filling, I didn’t eat sweets or drink carbonated drinks until I was 15 due to allergies. Since the age of 17 I have only seen the dentist 3 times I am now 27 the last time was for extensive work but that was 2 years ago, and my teeth are weak and I know I’m going to need more fillings. Is their any thing I can do to get good teeth with out ripping the whole lot out and getting dentures? I am so self-conscious of it that I hate smiling and hate having my picture taken. Please help!!
A. You could consider crowns on the teeth to make them stronger and porcelain crowns have very good aesthetics to improve the appearance of your smile

Q. Dear Dr i recently had a five tooth bridge fitted, two of the teeth are false, three are abutments. I was pleased with the overall appearance of the bridge, however a couple of days later, i noticed one of the crowns wasn’t fitted snuggly into the gum line as the other two, i even saw a small gap, i revisted the dentist who fitted bridge and he said it looked fine to him and being he has 46 years experience in dentistry and a good rep, i decided not to pursue my concern any further. However, a few weeks on i was still seeing the gap, and food fragments were dissappearing under the gum line, and reappearing the next day along with saliva, lastly, today i found the gap although still looking small, has dropped down enough for me to actually place a finger nail over the top of the crown.I plan to revisit the dentist and tell him all what i’ve told you, my question is, would any reputable dentist ignore this situation? yours sincerely
A. I would definitely speak to your dentist and convey your concerns I am sure he will examine the bridge take some x-rays and hopefully get the bridge repaired or have a new one made.

Q. i have two front crowns but i have an overbite which i would like attended to- can i have the six month smile programme even though i have crowns or what else would you suggest? Would braces correct my problem?
A. You might be better off with an Inman Aligner as a fixed brace is difficult to stick to existing crowns.

Q. I visited a dentist recently and explained to him that i was getting pain on the left side of my mouth which would start at the bottom and radiate upwards towards my temple area. I had been chewing on the left side of my mouth up until the pain started a week ago because i had crakced a tooth on the right hand side of my mouth. He told me that nothing was showing on the x-rays on the left hand side of my mouth but the tooth on the right hand side was cracked down the middle and needed removing which i have booked for next week. I asked him why i was getting pain on the left hand side of my mouth if nothing was showing on the x-rays. He told me that one of the reasons could be that i had been putting too much pressure on the teeth by constantly chewing on the left hand side and now they were causing pain, could this be a possibility?
A. It is difficult to assess you without seeing if the tooth on the right has to be removed have that done first and then have the left side re-assessed.
