Saturday, August 30th, 2008
Q.
I am a 39 year old female. I have been wearing braces for 14 months trying to correct a crooked tooth in the bottom jaw. I started with a perfect bite that I maintained it throught the duration of the treatment. I did however notice that both my upper and lower teeth are positioned on an angle…I am very concerned about this outcome. Please advise.

Saturday, August 30th, 2008
Q.
I have had various full top dentures since I was 21 and I am now 58. If I stop wearing dentures and have implants wont my top lip cave in as my gum will probably have receded. Will I need a bone graft and how many implants are used for a full top set. Is this the only solution, as I dislike wearing dentures.

Q.
Dear Dr Suri, I have seen some of the before and after photos on your website, I think the results look great. I wonder if it would be possible for you to give me an estimate for four veneers on the front teeth? My teeth are straight and a good colour, I just wish for the front ones to be improved. Many thanks for your time, A

Saturday, August 30th, 2008
Q.
I have recently had a white composite filling and suffering with extreme pain and living off ibuprofen. I visited the dentist and they said I am just sensitive and prescribed me a high fluoride toothpaste, this has made no difference. I returned to the dentist and they said they may have to remove the filling? I chose a white filling so it wasn’t unsightly , I am also scared of the dentist and was never advised when purchasing the filling that it would cause me discomfort. Please can you offer any advise and also if they do remove it will I get my money back? many thanks Bryan.
