Do you have any advice about getting my teeth whitened?

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
Hello doctor, I am a teenager of 15 years of age and I have neglected my teeth for a few years since maybe the age of 7 or 8 where I only brushed once a day or once every other day and I am ashamed to say that I have only just started to think about doing something about it. This has caused stains on my teeth from a young age which have never gone which leads me to fear that these stains are maybe quite deep. I have started an oral hygiene regime in which I’m using Arm and Hammer Advanced Whitening toothpaste and Plax Mouthwash. My question is therefore, do you have any advice or information concerning what I can do to get my teeth healthier and whiter (especially!) and any specific products that would help my teeth stains disappear? Thanks.,

Is cost of smile makeover reasonable?

Thursday, February 25th, 2010
Q.
Hi, i have just investigated with my dentist about how I go about improving my smile, I’ve had some photos done with him but he’s said the next step is about a 3 hour appointment to undergo teeth modelling with a view to then working on the models to show me how they can be straightened and what technique will work best. I’ve been given a cost of just under £500 to do this, does this sound about right? My dentist tells me that only once this is done he will be able to discuss a plan and costs to actually starighten my teeth. Your advice would be appreciated, as I would like to check this is standard practice before I proceed. Thanks.,
A.
It sounds like a good idea to … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
