A Tooth That I Had Root Canal Treatment On 15 Years Ago Fell Out, What Do I Do?

Tuesday, March 5th, 2013
Q.

Hi I wonder if you can help . I had root canal treatment on one of my teeth( I think it was the 3rd one in from the front tooth) around 15 years ago. Everything has been fine up until now with it. I had quite a shock as last night the whole tooth fell out in one piece including two metal posts which are attached to what I presume is a crown . It was such a long time ago I can’t actually remember what treatment I received! It is quite a mystery, anyways obviously I am now very upset to see a gap at the side where the tooth was . Will I be able to just have this replaced by my dentist or will I need a dental implant or worse ?? It could become quite an issue for me if I do not get it fixed so I say, thank you your help would be much appreciated .

I Have A Misplaced Midline, Will My Dentist Allow Me To Get Braces?

Monday, March 4th, 2013
Q.

I’m 14 turning 15, and my teeth are pretty straight for the most part but my insisors are a bit crooked but they look straight. My problem is that I have a misplaced midline because I sucked my thumbs for 11 years. I just noticed a couple weeks ago. I measured it and its about 3.5mm off. It also is very irritating to bite because the lip also feels weird. My mom pointed out that my face is now a bit assymetrical. This is getting to me a little bit and I don’t want it to cause confidence or negative dental health issues in the future. I would rather get it sorted now. Will my dentist allow me to get braces?? If not what other treatment options are available to me? Braces are my preferred choice and as I said having them now when I am younger suits me better, I couldn’t stand having them when I am an adult.

Why has one of my teeth stopped growing?

Friday, February 15th, 2013
Q.

Well, to pout the story to you, I’m twelve years old. My teeth have grown perfectly but this was until one stopped growing completely. What has happened to cause this? Is it bad for you if this problem remains? Hopefully it’s just taking time to develop. I haven’t asked anyone about whether or not this is a bad thing for my dental health. Will I be needing oral surgery to correct the problem and rectify my smile? I still have some baby teeth remaining my two front teeth came out fine. I think the tooth that is not growing is my eating tooth. Its on the top.On the left side it fell and is now growing. But my right side isn’t. Is it because my left side is taking the time to develop? Could you please advise me on this situation and tell me what steps I should take, Regards.

What Is The Cost Of Having An Implant?

Friday, January 18th, 2013
Q.

Hi, after having root canal in my eye tooth, a year later I got an infection in the guu, after numerous anti-biotics my dentist referred me to the hospital to have the tooth removed and a false one on a plate put in. I was very upset as I did not want to have a plate. On visiting the hospital they said they could try and save the tooth by splitting the gum open to rid the infection. I had this procedure last August. Unfortunately the infection is back as my gum is turning black around the tooth again, with discomfort and a nasty taste. I was wondering if you could advise me of the cost of having the tooth removed replaced by a screw in one. Regards

What Should I Do After My Tooth Is Removed?

Friday, January 18th, 2013
Q.

I will be extracting a root canal tooth which is a pre-molar on my upper right arch. The tooth directly in front of it is an implant. I’ve been told that my options for tooth replacement are limited because of the implant. It was suggested that I just leave a gap there. (I do not want to get another implant).
Could you please advise me of my options for filling in the gap after my extraction.
Thank you.

I’m Not Happy With My Treatment, What Should I Do?

Friday, January 18th, 2013
Q.

Please give me some advise. I had to finally have some crowns replaced and decided to have cosmetic work also. It was very important to me to keep a natural looking smile I wanted to keep my two front teeth longer and wanted at least the same white as before. my teeth were all cemented in on top and the 2 front teeth were too short. also, I thought the color looked grey – I did not like the way they looked. After complaining he redid the front 2 teeth – said they made a mistake and they were too short. I decided to go ahead and do the 6 veneers in the front bottom . I am ok with them as they seem brighter and prettier than the crowns on top. yesterday I finally had the nerve to call and talk to the dentist. He said he would get back with me once his computers were back up. I still have not heard from him. I am making myself sick and keep looking in the mirror – they just seem dull and almost grey. I have paid over 40,000 – please tell me what to do.

Q.

I went to the dentist today I have not been for over a year as my previous dentist retired and it has been hard with work trying to arrange an appointment I went for a check in and was asked if I had a problem with my teeth the only problem I had was once every couple of weeks when i am brushing my teeth at the back i it feels a little bit tender but apart from that no pain etc so the dentist could not see anything so she said she was going to do xrays so when the results came back on the left hand side of my teeth at the back she showed me my tooth and pointed out a very small dot that i could barley see and said i would need a filling i have never had a filling before and i dont understand why the dentist would want to give me a filling when there is only a little bit of decay can you help me get my head around this?
