My son has Asperger’s syndrome and his teeth are awful now, what can we do about them?

Monday, July 19th, 2010
Q.
My son has Asperger’s Syndrome and is 17. He was very ill a few years ago before he was diagnosed & began making himslef sick.This started the decay in his teeth, but he still has v poor dental hygeine and will not brush or let me near to brush and is very nervous of dentists.I have contacted a few in the area but they are loathe to treat him due to his nervousness.He is now starting to feel happier in himself due to medication (Prozac) but his teeth are in such a state it holds him back. Any recommendations? I am prepared to pay for his treatment even though he is under 18 as it is such a shame to see him with such awful teeth,

I have really sensitive back teeth, would lumineers help with this?

Monday, June 28th, 2010
Q.
Hi there, I have had my 2 front teeth crowned as they discoloured after root canal treatment. The crowns have been great however discoloured at the start of the gum, a darker blackish colour. I was told later that this is the base of the crown – can anything be done about this? I want to have straighter front teeth, but don’t want to crown or veneer them, as I was told that the crowns I have are the last chance to save my front teeth, as if I lose these there would be little I could do about replacing them. Naturally, I’m apprehensive about getting anything else done, so would lumineers be a better option as they require little tooth preparation? Also, I have really sensitive back teeth, would lumineers help with this too? Thanks.,

Will the fact I’ve had gum disease and some recession prevent me from straightening my teeth?

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010
Q.
Hello, I’m 27 years old and have very healthy and white teeth with no fillings. I had braces when I was younger (15) but as I stopped wearing my retainer my teeth have since moved a bit and are not as straight as I would like. I was thinking about going for the invisalign treatment to re-straighten the teeth which have moved. However there is a problem – when I went to the dentist recently he said over the last 3 years I have suffered from some gum disease which has led to a small amount of bone loss on my two very back teeth (diagnosed from routine x-rays in a check up). I have also noticed a small amount of recession on two of my front teeth. Anyway, I’ve rectified the problems with my gums now (through hygienist visits and an electric toothbrush) and they are healthy and pink now. Will the fact I’ve had gum disease and some recession prevent me from straightening my teeth?,

I can’t have the 6-month smile treatment because of the gum muscle between my two front teeth, what other treatment can I have?

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010
Q.
I have a relatively big gap between my two front teeth. I went to see about getting the 6 month smile treatment but was told that it wasn’t suitable as my teeth would not stay together because of the gum muscle in between my two front teeth. I was just wondering is there any other way apart from long term braces? Or even after the 6 month smile could i not wear a retainer to keep the gap closed etc ?,
