what are my options for my midline shift on my top teeth

Saturday, September 26th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I have a midline shift which is very obvious on my top teeth. I had my lateral incisor (I think) on the right hand side taken out under general when I was 11 as it was growing wrong. I think this in when the midline shift became more obvious. I was bullied for it alot at school and since became very paranoid about it. I don’t know why it was never corrected as a child. As an adult (27), I have become progressivly more and more aware about it, particulary over the past few years. Rationally, I am certain it can’t have got any worse, but I do feel more aware of it and as a result, hate having photographs taken and am very paraoid about my smile. I just wondered if you could let me know what you think my options are? Thanks…

My dentist said i cannot do implant or bridge because of my small teeth can u advice?

Saturday, September 26th, 2009
Q.
6 months ago I lost a lower front tooth. My dentist gave me a temporary implant. I was told there was an infection on the root, so I was given antibiotics and yesterday had the root out and was given a hideous denture to wear that I am told I have to wear for up to one year (!!) He says he cannot do an implant or bridge because my teeth are too small – I certainly do not have small teeth – I have had a lot of work done over the years and no dentist has ever remarked on my ‘small’ teeth. I went back to my dentist’s surgery this morning to ask for help as I took the denture out to clean and cannot get it back in – it has cut into my gum and is pressing hard on my other teeth. I was told he was too busy so they made an appointment with another dentist in the practice. I went to the appointment sat waiting for one hour and was then told she refuses to see me as I am not her patient! (BAD PRACTICE!) That a dentist can leave a patient in this state is quite disgusting. My question is….Please could you tell me why I have to wait a year for an implant? My dentist has not explained properly and I do not understand. I am 44, consider myself fairly attractive, and have a big problem with wearing an awful denture (It hurts, does not fit properly and is very, very uncomfortable)

A.
I would recommend that you bok… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Is there any alternatives to a plate that covers the whole roof of my mouth

Saturday, September 26th, 2009
Q.
I knocked my 2 front teeth out when i was 11 and a dentist filed them down and put teeth in that were on posts. I am now 38 and one of the roots cracked and have had it removed in the last couple of days.I now have a whole plate with 1 front tooth and a couple of back teeth(which never really botherd me that they were missing). The plate feels horrible is there any alternatives to a plate that covers the whole roof of my mouth. I have read about implants but they are out of the question due to the cost. Many thanks for any advice you can give.

How long does it take a porcelain fused to metal crown to adjust

Saturday, September 26th, 2009
Q.
I got a porcelain fused to metal crown about 5 months ago and I have a couple of questions. I was looking at it today and I saw this white line between where the metal and porcelain meet. What is that? Also there is a black horizontal line in the middle of my crown on the porcelain part. It isn’t at the gum line, what could this be? Also how long does it take a crown like this to adjust because my gums are still sensitive around it? Thanks!

A.
I’m not sure what these lines … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

My teeth are very loose can you advise me on it

Saturday, September 26th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I don’t know if your a orthodontist but I don’t know what else to do, but really hope you can help me. I’ve been wearing a hawley retainer for the past 2 and a half years everyday and night and once had to have my retainer fixed because I noticed a gap in my 2 front teeth coming back. The orthodontist said nothing was wrong, needless to say I had to go back. Recently I have had the same problem again and did go back but once again they said it was fine, but I can feel how loose my teeth are and I don’t know what to do to fix it because gaps in my teeth are a huge fear Id rather not re-live. If you have any suggestions I am open to anything. Thank you so much for your time.
