I have sensitive teeth and receding gums, what advice can you give me?

Friday, December 23rd, 2011
Q.

Hi Dr. Bohara. I need some advice please. I have extremely sensitive teeth and my gums are receding. I am a diabetic also. My teeth at the back of the top and bottom of my mouth are very sore. Especially when I eat. So painful i need painkillers. I have several teeth missing at the back of my mouth at the top and bottom and sometimes when the pain is so bad i feel like i could pull them all out. Two of my teeth at the front lower jaw have very severly gum recession and are a little loose. Could you please advise me on any treatment. I currently receive free nhs treatment. Any advice would be much appreciated.

My straight teeth are now crossed over due to gum disease, what can I do?

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011
Q.

Hello Dr Bohara, My teeth which were once straight have moved, the front ones now crossover and their is a gap further back on either ide which is visible when I smile and where the teeth have moved forward and my dentist tells me that this is because I have bone loss and also an element of gum disease. It is difficult to clean my teeth properly now, also difficuilt to eat as I am not used to my teeth as they are.,biting an apple is impossible and I often bite my lip.
Can anything be done to correct this and make me confident to smile again? I am 59 years of age.

Can IV sedation be used during tooth extractions?

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011
Q.

Can you extract teeth whilst I am IV sedated. I have not been to the dentist for 30 years and hate my teeth and just want them out and replaced by false ones. Please help me. I had a terrible experience as a child and I now cannot even consider goimng to a surgery if it means poking around in my mouth and injections for extractions later on. My upper right wisdom tooth is hurting and 3 of my upper fromt teeth have bits missing from decay. All my teeth apart from my incisors have hurt me at some time in the past but this lastest ache is becoming intolerable

My dentist tells me I don’t have enough bone for dental implants, what are my options?

Friday, June 17th, 2011
Q.

Hello Doctor. 

I had my 4 front teeth extracted 30 years ago, and I now want dental implants. I do not have sufficient bone in that area. Do I have to have bone taken from my jaw or other parts of my body, or is there a bone substitute that could be used. I know that impants can be costly, but my confidence has taken a beating with having to wear a denture first and then a fixed brace, which envolved stripping my 2 canines to use as the anchor teeth. I am female and in my early 50,s. I would really appreciate your reply and thank you for your time.

Brace has made my tooth worse!

Wednesday, May 11th, 2011
Q.

Hi there di could you answer me a question please it would be off much assistance , I wore braces for three years and then a retainer for 18 months as a teenager and they straightened my teeth. I am now in my early 20s and one of my front teeth has moved over the past year or so and is now visably sticking out. What would be my options for moving it back? This wasn’t actually a problem before my teenage dental treatment! I don’t really want to go back to the days of train-tracks again, but equally it is making me self-conscious. I’m also not the best at dealing with pain! Please help! help please.

What advice do you have for wisdom teeth that have forced teeth to overlap?

Wednesday, April 13th, 2011
Q.

Please could you advise what to do when you have a canine tooth in this case my right, that has grown on top of or at least slightly overlapping the teeth surrounding it. My mouth is small and as my wisdom teeth have emerged all my previously straight teeth bottom and top are becoming more uneven. I would like to have braces perhaps but don’t know if an extraction bottom and top would be required before straightening could start. I would also like to have some whitening done but not sure if it is best to wait until the other problems are sorted first. I have never shown my teeth in a photograph and try not to laugh or smile as i feel it looks bad. If you have any advice i would be grateful.
