Tuesday, September 7th, 2010
Q.
I would like to be sedated during my dentistry work using IV (Intravenous) Sedation, I need fillings and maybe an extraction. I also have 3 wisdom teeth. This causes me alot of pain, but i have had a bad experience with a dentist, which has made me petrefied! I have been in ain on and off for 4 years now. Will a dentist carry this work out under sedation and can anybody be recommended in the Manchester area? Thank you,

Can you advise me on what to do next as I am a very nervous patient?

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have rotten teeth in my upper jaw and arranged an appointment for the first time in years to visit a dentist in Manchester. After the consultation I was given 3 options, 1) Remove all the rotten teeth and fit a denture. 2) fit a full mouth bridge that would be anchored to 1 tooth. 3) Implants. At the time I couldnt afford options 2 / 3, and was far to reluctant to get dentures as I’m only 30. I now have more money available for treatment, but the dentist wont see me again because I failed to turn-up for my second appointment (very bad, I know, but I felt I was being pushed into getting a treatment I didnt want). Could you advise me of what I should do next – I am still a very nervous patient and feel embarrased going to see a dentist who doesnt know my situation. Many Thanks,

What is the best course of action for my daughter if all of her front teeth are removed?

Monday, September 6th, 2010
Q.
My daughter suffered a trauma to her 2 upper front teeth as a child and had crowns fitted. At age now 22 she has had root canal and surgery to try and clear an infection that has occured around the root. If the infection re-occurs she has been told there is no more treatment available and her teeth will have to be removed. She has a massive phobia about her teeth and dentists as a result of her accident and always has to be sedated she is even having counselling to help her with this but her councellor has informed her she will have no front teeth for about 6 weeks if they have to be removed and she is distraught. Can you advise the best course of action if she does have to have them removed and what the process would be. Since the accident I have always taken her to a private dentist and am aware of the costs but I want her to have the best available because of her phobia. Please can you help,

I need a full smile makeover, and I wondered if you had any information concerning price and the general procedures involved?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi. I’ve had trouble with my teeth from a young age. A combination of factors has lead to this. Not brushing regularly as a child, eating too much sugary foods and a terrible fear of the dentist. I’ve had several back teeth taken out and now have metal fillings in most of the remaining teeth. Ideally I would like a complete smile makeover including veneers, White fillings and whitening procedure. I would like to know how best to go about getting this work done. I believe I need 9 White filling replacements 8 veneers. I live in northern Ireland and would like to know 1. How a dentist would go about this work and 2. A rough guide as to how much it would cost. Thanks,

I’m have a large fear of going to the dentist, but my teeth need sorting out. Is there anything that can help?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
I really don’t know how I can make the first step in getting my teeth sorted out. I’ve not been to a dentist for about 12 years and some of the front ones have areas of brown on them although none seem actually loose. They look so unsightly and I’m so ashamed of them as no one I know of my age (early 40s) has teeth that look like mine. What is the easiest first step I could make that would enable me to actually be able to set foot over the threshold of a dental surgery and overcome the fear I have of a first appointment? And secondly in very broad terms if someone hasn’t been to a clinic for so many years – how many appointments would I be likely to need to put things right. Thank you: even writing this email has been a huge step for me.,

Do you have any advice on what i can do to help with preventing any further erosion

Monday, August 23rd, 2010
Q.
i have some enamel damage to my front top teeth (the 2 middle ones and 2 either side) i have an extreme phobia of having anything done (my dentist has said they are ok for the moment but some of them have slightly changed damage from the erosion) i have one buckle filling on one of them. i would like to know roughly how much it would cost if i paid to have a general anathestic say if these teeth had to come out. i can get to the dentist but its staying in the chair as ive had a lot of bad experiences in the past (not including my present dentist) i feel as though i have developed a phobia of my teeth as i am constantly feeling and checking them convinced there is a problem. do you have any advice on what i can do to help with preventing any further erosion thanks,

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
I had my 2 upper front teeth broken off in a fight a few years ago. I have several back teeth missing. and other teeth in a bad state of repair due to my emense fear of dentist. My smile is so bad now, discoloured jagged teeth ect I have decided that I can no longer go on. I have been lookin up different way of sorting my teeth out. I don’t really want false teeth if I can gelp it I have been looking at having reconstructive treatment or veneers on the upper teeth and having my bottom teeth whitened and filled where nessasary. Is there any other options that I could concider as to try and sort my teeth out. Can you also recommend a cosmentic dentest in the manchester area that can offer the type of service i need along with being able to sedate me.,

I have always suffered from a total phobia of the dentist, but my whole mouth is in pain. Can you please help me?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
Please help i`m so down about my teeth, i have always suffered from a total phobia since having a horrific incident with a dentist as a child, i used to have sedation when i had treatment but the dentist left and they stopped doing it, i seen his replacement who dropped the drill on my bottom teeth and split 2 of them, also knocked out my crown, she replaced the crown with a temp one and after 2 yrs still never replaced it, so now i have one that wiggles, just been to a new mhs dentist who removed a back tooth !!! and left the wiggling crown and split, and now those 2 bottom damaged teeth have completely split, so my whole mouth is aching, it`s really getting me down as i can`t seem to find a dentist who actually cares,and since being made redundant i can`t afford private care, please help i would be so grateful for some advice,
