I Have Recently Had Six Veneers Fitted. I Have A Black Line Appearing At The Bottom Of Two Veneers. How Can I Get Rid Of This?

Wednesday, August 6th, 2014
Q.

Hiya. I’ve just had veneers done, six at the top, I’ve only had them done recently and already I have a black line appearing at the bottom of two of the veneers. I’ve tried brushing it away but it won’t go. I also feel my veneers are not very secure and could fall out at any time. I was made aware that this was a good cosmetic dentist. I am beginning to think that this is not the case.
Could you help to tell me what the black lines are and what I should do to be rid please?
Also how long should the veneers be sensitive for as my still feel very sensitive?

Thank you.

My Tooth Aches After I Had A Root Canal. I’m Supposed To See My Dentist Again Soon. What Treatment Should I Ask For?

Monday, July 21st, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Gambroudes. I had root canal treatment on my tooth one year ago and my dentist placed a ceramic cap on my tooth. But shortly afterwards it automatically came out of mouth while I was eating food. After this incident I visited another dentist, and I found that the previous dentist filled my tooth with cement instead of any permanent material or metal. This second dentist filled it with silver in my tooth after doing some proper cleaning but the next day my tooth started aching. I’m supposed to meet my dentist again soon. Please tell me what treatment I should take from the dentist. Thank you for listening.

I Want To Study As An Oral Surgeon. If I Studied For This In India, Would I Be Able To Use This Qualification Abroad?

Monday, July 21st, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Moore. I could do with your help. I have finished my BDS and I want to do a MDS in oral surgery. But ideally I would want to go abroad, but finance is an issue. Is there any way by which I can do MDS in India and then go abroad and practice with the same qualification? (esp. in USA or Canada). I know about DDS but is it worth going abroad and studying dentistry all over again?
I want to be sure of what I want to do before I commit to something. Also I have always dreamt of studying abroad but I don’t know what to do now. Please help me with this issue. Your advice would be greatly received. Thank you.

I’m Too Scared To Brush My Teeth In Case I Make Things Worse! Please Give Me Some Direction?

Wednesday, July 9th, 2014
Q.

Hello. I am a 20 year old student who hasn’t taken care of my teeth. I have now realised that if I don’t do something soon there will be nothing left. I haven’t seen a dentist in over 5 years and rarely brush due to the fear that I will now make things in my mouth even worse. I don’t know what it is but I can’t see a dentist. It’s got to the point where I have been in enough pain over the last few weeks that I have needed to take ibuprofen and sometimes paracetamol at the same time to get rid of the pain. I believe I have at least 14 bad teeth and at least 6 of them are really bad. I want to find help but I don’t know what to do. Please could you give me some direction on what to do next. Thanks.

I Was Born With The Condition Cleidocranial Dysostosis. What Can Be Done To Make Me Look Like I Have Nice Teeth?

Tuesday, July 8th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Moore. I am now 46 years old and was born with cleidocranial dysostosis, which affects the shape of my mouth and my teeth. Most of my teeth are filled and I have a lot missing. What can be done and how much to make me look like I have nice teeth? Would the oralift help the shape of my face? My daughter who is 22 also has this condition. I would like to feel confident and perhaps have implants you cannot see my lower teeth as they are low into mouth. Thank you for taking the time to reply.

I Tongue Thrust At Night And It’s Made The Lower Portion Of My Face Look Out Of Proportion. Would I Need Jaw Surgery To Correct This?

Friday, June 27th, 2014
Q.

Hey there. For many years my teeth have appeared as perfect although I do have a slight open bite. However, this is not my main concern as I tongue thrust every night and this has pushed both my top and bottom teeth forward which has projected my mouth beyond the straight line between the tip of my nose and chin. The combination of this and my facial features makes the lower third of my face look out of proportion to the rest of my face. It seems my jaw protrudes the straight line between my forehead and mouth. I am not sure what you think of think about this you would probably need to see a picture if I am right? Could this be solved by simply closing the open bite with braces or is jaw surgery to reduce the size of the lower jaw needed? Would a lip reduction benefit me?

Thanks so much for your reply in advance.

I Want A Full Set Of ‘Silver’ Teeth. What Would The Best Way To Achieve This? Would Implants Work For This?

Wednesday, June 25th, 2014
Q.

Hello. For a while I have wanted to get a full set of ‘silver’ teeth. I know other alloys are mainly used such as palladium. I just want them to appear silver. I know it will cost a lot but was wondering what the best way to do it would be. Whether it be a full set of crowns or to remove my current teeth and replaced with implants.

I do have a full set of healthy teeth (one missing), however I have always wanted this done and would like to know the best way before I commit to spending my money and changing my permanent appearance.

Also where would I be able to receive such a thing?

Many thanks.
