Need a reasonable and honest dentist

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Q. Hi, I have had problems with mt teeth for many years after being on stroids as a child. In April I had my entire top set of teeth taken out in preparation for implants, I lost confidence in my dentist after many issues. The final straw was when after quoting verbaly that it would cost in the region of £8-10k, he then after extractions quoted 15k!! I have no real idea of the correct price and am getting quotes. I live in Derby and would like to find someone I can trust/within a reasonable travelling distance and at an honest price. Can you advise/support? Thanks for your time.

A. Hi

I am more that happy to see you for a consultation. If you would like to book one, please contact reception on 01509 23 11 44.

I need to bring my front teeth forward as they are pushed back

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Q. Dear Mr Bohara, My top central incisors or the teeth shown when u smile closest to the nose. Have been pushed outwards to such a degree that, when i smile you cannot see many teeth and definitely not my top set of teeth. This is highly embarrassing for me, are there anyways i can push them back in??. I presume this was caused due to the fact that, i used to suck my thumb throughout my child hood. Causing my teeth to be pushed outwards. What can i use to push my teeth inwards? can i use removable retainers? rather than fixed braces??

A.

Hi

Your possible options may be
1. damon braces
2. invisalign

Of course you would require a full examination, to give you a definitive treatment option. I hope this helps.

Invisalign treatment has not fixed my protruding front teeth

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Q. I recently have finished my treatment with invisalign with a clinic in harley street. Yet, me teeth are still protruding from the front.Although,the arch in my mouth is now aligned. I expected my front two teeth to be pushed in completely. I now have been told that I will have to have 4 teeth taken out and fixed braces for 18 months for them to be pushed in. Are there any other options which can be taken as this treatment is very long?

A. Hi

Unfortunately it is impossible to give options without looking at the mouth.  If you have concerns, then you may consider getting other opinions from other clinics. Sorry i cant help more than that.

Can my wisdom tooth make my bottom teeth crook?

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

Q. Hi there i have a question for you i have a impacted wisdom tooth its my lower right side my dentist told me i could take it out whenever i want and its not a big deal, well my question is can that wisdom tooth cause my second molar to start raising up and make a couple of my bottom teeth crooked? because that is happening but like i said he said it wasnt a big deal!? can you please help me? thanks

A. Hi 

It is very unlikely for the wisdom tooth to cause the crowding, but an examination would be required.

If you are getting repeated infections or it is causing damge to you adjacent tooth then it may require removal. Your dentist would discuss all your options.

What can be done to cure teeth decay caused due to pregnancy?

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

Q. Hi, I will start by saying, when i was pregnant two yrs ago my pregnancy took everything out of my teeth! They just started decaying very quickly and have continued to get extremley worse! Most of my teeth are falling apart, look rotten, break,and casue pain all the time. No matter what i do i feel i can not stop them from continuing to decay! So my question is what to do? implant?vaneers? Or??? I really could use some help, i would like to have a smile i can be proud of! thank you!

A. Firsly it is important to find out the cause of the decay by visiting a dentist. The main reasons for this are too much sugar in the diet or the patients oral hygiene. After this it would be important to stabilise the decay, so that it does not get worse. Once everything is healthy in the mouth then it can be discussed what options you have to improve the cosmetics of your teeth.

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

Q. Im 17 and I have a very prodruding jaw and can’t even smile because im so self concious, my face looks flat and my chin sticks out. I’ve tried to convince myself its not noticable but i have had a couple of people comment on it. I think i may have a very slight underbite but i can just make my top teeth go over the bottom one. Is it possible for me to get jaw surgery to correct it? It not purely costmetic because i do get an aching in my jaw as well. Would i be able to get this on the NHS? Or if i would have to pay how much would it cost?

A. Hi

It is very difficult to say what type of treatment you may require without carrying out an examination. I would recommend you see a dentist to discuss your options.
