I really really hate my teeth

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
Q.
Hello there:) I’m a 16 year old girly, and I really really hate my teeth! Everyone tells me there’s nothing wrong with them and to be honest there isn’t any major problems! I just want them to look perfect! For me! Here’s an idea of how they look:- / < My top teeth slightly stick out < & this is the bottom row. I just want both rows pushed back, straight, but the thing is i really don’t want any normal braces! My hearts set on lingual. As my teeth stick out having normal braces would look flaming rediculous! Could i have lingual braces? All my teeth are together with no gaps apart from the front two, so would having teeth removed be an issue? Im honestly not fussed about the price! but i really wan’t lingual and no other, not even invisalign it’l just look silly. The un-noticable the better! As i said i’m 16 but do i have to pay the whole amount straight away, could i not pay a fee over a period of time as of my circumstances? Sorry if i blabber on, i just really wan’t my teeth straight and my private dentist said no when i was 15. So now i pay the price! Please do get in touch if you have time! I’d love to hear your verdict on my sad dilema! Much appreciated:) Ps: I have no idea if you even specialise in lingual braces, total guess!

My teeth have been bleached and are whiter than B1

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
Q.
Hi My teeth have been bleached and are whiter than B1 – they match the first new ‘bleached shade’. I have two teeth that have been cosmetically bonded with B1 resin but these now look ‘yellow’ compared to the others.My dentist says he cannot find a supplier of the composite resin to match the bleached shades. I know cosmetic dentists can obtain bleached shade resin – can you tell me where my dentist can obtain this from. Many thanks

I have 4 teeth that are heavily filled

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
Q.
Hi, I have a question. I have 4 teeth that are heavily filled also on 2 of them I dont have that much tooth left. My nhs dentist has told me that they cannot fit crowns on the 2 teeth because there is not that much tooth left. Now, I dont really want to go for Implants now, because they are basically surviving on a large filling. Can i request crowns or should my dentist advise me what I should do. I basically feel like she is leaving it too late and leaving it till i dont have much tooth left and then saying i cannot put crowns on there. I am only 28 and only eat on one side of my mouth, so this is the reason why most of my teeth are filled on one side.. My question is can I request crowns or should she advise me. ..Pls can you get back to me. Thanks

I have 2 posted crown’s as my two front upper teeth

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
Q.
Hello, I have 2 posted crown’s as my two front upper teeth. They have been crowned for 20 years now and i think its time i had them removed and implants to replace them. Would the removal and the titatium impant be done on the same day and also would the temporary teeth be fitted also. I would also want to have veneers fotted to the remaining upper teeth to compliment. It would seem you’re quite the expert when it comes to implants but as i live i yorkshire could you advise on my travelling after the proceedure? As in would i be ok to drive……ok to catch the train or would i need a overnight? Many thanks

For years i had a dental implant

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
Q.
For years i had a dental implant. I have unsuccessfuly had a 2 new implants fitted, but they keep faling out. I have taken 3 courses of antibiotics to treat a gum infection in the same area, but pus just still keeps building up inside my gum and it is getting painful. The dentist now suggests that I have a bridge instead of an implant. Will I need my gums scaled in order to eliminate the infection?
