i had my two front teeth bonded and did not like the result

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009
Q.
Hello, i recently had my two front teeth bonded and didn’t like the result. I should have done invislign but my budget would not allow me. Can bonding be removed safely without harming the real tooth? Only the acid solution was used no drilling. If so, how can you tell the bonding from the real tooth? I’ve been to three dentists and they all say removing bonding is real hard and afraid to hit the real tooth when removing bonding from the surface of my teeth. What should I do?

A.
I agree that bonding is never … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I had root canal treatment 5 years ago

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009
Q.
Hi.. I had root canal treatment 5 years ago. I felt from the start that the dentist had not done a great job. I have always had occasional pains and throbbing in the tooth after the treatment. I could put my tongue on the tooth and feel the throb Anyway, the past few days I have been having a very bad ache in it, I went to a new dentist and he said I have an abscess in the tooth, I am taking ABs and Anti Inflammatorys. He said the root canal was a bad job and he could see that from the Xray. I now have to see a root canal specialist and have it redone which I cannot afford. I just want to ask, is this a common thing to happen after 5 years? I look after my teeth. I want to write a letter to the dentist who did the RCT, and ask for a refund. Do you think I am wrong to do this? Thanks in advance..

Without seeing the Xray it is … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I have a dead tooth with a root filling in it

Monday, February 23rd, 2009
Q.
I have a dead tooth with a root filling in it and it is brown in colour. This is one of my front two teeth. I have veneers on both of my front teeth but the one that is discoloured shows through the veneer. Is there any way of getting veneers that match in colour? Also I had this done privately 2 years ago and the veneer has broken and had to be replaced twice. Is this common as it is expensive and I have to pay to have it fixed.

One of my bottom teeth is crooked

Monday, February 23rd, 2009
Q.
Hello! I am worried about my teeth. One of my bottom tooth is crooked and the top one is slightly pushed forward. I have all 4 wisdom teeth coming through which are impacted as there is not enough room for them to come through. My dentist says that removal is not an option at present as there is not signs of infection which apparently is within accordance of the NICE Guidlines. I am very self conscious about it but really do not want general anesthia to remove them. What would be my options? Thanks

my right front tooth has become discoloured

Monday, February 23rd, 2009
Q.
Hello, my right front tooth has over the years has become darker in colour and quite sensitive, I’m guessing its rotting as the enamel is crack . It is sensitive to brushing and cold drinks. What would be the best option to fix the tooth, my other teeth aren’t the greatest either but no where near as bad. I know teeth are important but fixing them are very expensive and money is not available, basically I want to be able to smile confidently without spending alot of money. Thanks for reading.
