I am a medical student, can I come and observe you?

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr Verma,

I am a 2nd year dental student at Barts and The London dental school. My question isn’t about a dental problem but there is a much more valuable way in which you can help me.

I was wondering whether it would be possible to observe you at the surgery some time. I am fascinated by the work that cosmetic dentists do, and we have started to restore teeth at dental school which is by far my favourite module.

I have contacted every dentist in the yellow pages and have been turned down. I would tremendously appreciate this opportunity even if it is for 1 hour. I anticipate your response.

Kind regards,

Q.

My teeth are all worn down. I am 59 years old and my dentist wants $30,000 to reconstruct my teeth. Can this be real or is he wanting me to put his kid through collage?

I got braces because I have a baby canine in my upper jaw, I hate them, how long will I have to wear them?

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011
Q.

Hi, I am an eighteen year old student. I just got braces about a month ago. My teeth are straight. I had to get the braces because I have still have baby canine in my upper teeth. They want to bring down the adult tooth. I have to get a gold chain on, the Expose and bond procedure, in about three weeks. I am really nervous about the surgery and how long it will take for the adult tooth to come down after the exposure. The big problem that worries me is that my adult tooth is horizontal – lucky me. How long will this take? And really how long will it take for my braces to be off? I have straight teeth which is upsetting. I thought I got to be one of the lucky ones that never had to get them. And never thought I would need them because of my straight teeth. But now I get them for my university years. Im really struggling with just having braces for 1 month. I really don’t like them. I have no confidence anymore and its hard for me to smile. Everyone says its worth it in the end, but to me this whole process is disheartening and stressful. I just really want to know if it will ultimately take three years to pull down my horizontal canine tooth and get the braces off.

I need braces but they are expensive, is a smile makeover quicker?

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011
Q.

hello, i am 15 years old and i live in california(u.s). i am in desperate need of braces, however they are expensive($6,500, with insurance) and my orthodontist said i would have them on for 2 years. my teeth are very crowded, and i have a crossbite/underbite.i was wondering if i could get a smile make over instead because thats faster. my questions are is it possible for me to get a smile makeover that will fix my problems for $6,500 and under? also i heard that if i went down to mexico, which isnt that far from me, it would be cheaper and its still safe because they have certified orthodontists there. also could my insurance cover an underbite surgery? please give me your honest opinio. i hate not smiling with my teeth and im constantly self conscious. thank you 🙂
