Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Q.
I currently have two teeth which by dentist said will benefit from being crowned. However he said that if I have these crowns on the NHS, they will have to be done in metal and will be seen as metal in my mouth, rather than porcelin and that to have a porcelin crown I will have to pay privately. I have tried looking for this information on the NHS website, under the band 3 information, however nothing is stated. Could you give me any information regarding this please.

i just had my new crown and i can not close my teeth together do i need to wait and see

Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Q.
I have just had a new crown put on my upper left molar and when I try to bite it hits the teeth below and can’t close my teeth together properly. I told my dentist and he then filed down the crown and also down the opposing tooth on the jaw below but I still can not close my teeth together. My dentist said not to think about it and it will be alright. Because I can’t eat properly at the moment, do I wait and see what happens or do I go back and see my dentist again?

A.
Give it a few days as the teet… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I have rare gums disease would the veneers last as long as expected in given circumstances

Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Q.
I am undergoing treatment with my dentist as i have a rare case of gum disease which is a big concern. The extent of it i was told would be what you would expect to see in someone 25 yrs or more older than myself. i also have a problem with the appearance of my teeth as the bite don’t come together. I am very self conscious about the appearance of my teeth and am desperate for a solution. my dentist has reccomended veneers but am weary of having that done because of the cost of the procedure and due to the severity of the gum disorder, ie would they last as long as expected given circumstances. I was wondering if an option would be to have problem teeth removed and bridged across?? Please help!!!!!

If the teeth are very bad then… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
