Hi Dr Moore, I am currently doing a project on patient anxiety. As a dentist, how do you deal with anxious patients before surgery and during surgery? Many thanks.,

I would like implants but am scared of the dentist – can you help me?

Friday, February 12th, 2010
Q.
As a child my front teeth stuck out and my carers were advised by professionals to remove one tooth form each side inorder for my front teeth to spread out. The braces helped however left gaps on each side. I have a bridge on my left side however I can see black/grey on top of the tooth near my gums. I have a gap on my right side which makes me feel uncomfortable. Plus one of my front tooth has discoloured and I think it my be a dead tooth.I have had bad experience with my teeth therefore very scared of going to the dentist. I would like implants but apprehensive and worried about the cost, how long it would take and the end result.Are you willing to take on a challenge? Can you help me? I am from Birmingham?,

I am scared of dentist but need dentures – can you advise?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010
Q.
I have recently been in touch with the Gentle Dental Office in Germany and had an initial consultation. I have been advised to have all of my top teeth removed and replaced with dentures and the majority of the bottom removed, leaving some to “anchor” the bottom dentures. I have been told that the “vertical” needs to be significantly increased as there is not enough space. Please could you explain what this means and how this can be achieved. Will I have to pay for this privately or can it be done on the NHS. I have not visited a dentist in 29 years because I suffer from dental phobia. I now want to contact a dentist in the Midlands area for a second opinion, but haven’t quite plucked up the courage. I need to get my problems sorted now and it is making my lie a misery. Please can you help? Thank you,
