I Can’t Smile Because Of My Broken Teeth, Can You Help Me?

Friday, July 12th, 2013
Q.

Hello. I have got a broken tooth, which is near the front of mouth so I don’t like to smile at all and this has been really getting me down. I stopped going to the dentist two years ago as my dentist often caused me a lot of pain and left me shaking in the chair which put me off for life. He really scared me and he never tried to ease any of my fears or concerns. He was always so abrupt and almost mean! But I want nice teeth so I can smile and I’m only 22. I am desperate for some help! I was wondering if you could help me?…also do you do finance that I could pay off on a monthly basis perhaps?
I do have bad teeth but I brush twice a day now. I’m really trying to get them back to normal once again. Please help me!!!

Will The Pain From My Cracked Tooth Become Unbearable?

Tuesday, June 11th, 2013
Q.

Hello,

I had some work done on my right front tooth 2-3 years ago.

After that work I noticed a slight pain in that tooth.

The last week that pain has gotten worse.

I’m worried cause today is the Queens birthday long weekend and my dentist is closed.

Is this pain going to get unbearable?

I did notice that I have a cracked bottom right tooth which when I bite hard hits my right tooth.

I go to the gym and when I work out I tend to bite hard. So I don’t know whether it is something I am doing, grinding or pressuring the tooth too much or whatever. Tooth pain is horrendous though and I’d like to avoid it as much as I possibly can!

Friday, June 7th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Bohara, my composite inlay has fallen out.The inlay was fitted as half of my tooth broke bad .What do i need to do ?? go back to my dentist an have a new inlay fitted .Is there a possibility that it will happen again ? My tooth was not suitable for a crown when I went as the break where near the gum line .Can you please be so kind to advise me what to do? Thanks. The inlay only  lasted two weeks and then it fell out .Are these inlays strong enough to be fitted and are there other alternatives which may be stronger ? I’m not sure about having another inlay unless I can be assured that it will last as long as it needs to. Would love to hear back from you soon, thanks.

Can My Partner Get His Treatment For Free?

Tuesday, April 30th, 2013
Q.

My partner has been having many issues with his teeth and when the problem worsened recently, we decided to do something about it. So, he went to see someone. My partner has been to his dentist a few times recently as his teeth are cracking and chipping. After going to the dentist, his dentist has filled them in but now for some bizarre reason, with in a week they are chipping and cracking again. His dentist said it’s because his bite is out and suggested he could have his top 3 teeth crowned and he would have to pay £1300 for this as he said its cosmetic. Do you think its cosmetic? as its causing him discomfort and can be very sensitive we thought it could be done free of charge do you agree?

How can I get my sons tooth permanently fixed?

Friday, April 19th, 2013
Q.

Dr Patel

My 8 year old son chipped the corner of his (adult) front tooth yesterday. We still have the broken piece of tooth.

What are our options for repairing this? We have him booked to see his regular dentist tomorrow to check that everything is OK but we’d like something that is relatively permanent while understanding that his teeth may still be moving and will get a little longer over the coming years.

Your are relatively local so were considering a visit if you can help! I would be very happy if you could give me some help and your opinion on this. Kind regards

Which Material Would Be The Best For My Bridge?

Thursday, March 14th, 2013
Q.

Which material is better to make a
bridge? The original tooth that is holding the bridge is cracked. We know our chchoices are ceramic or metal back. I am 83 years old and am in pretty good health otherwise, no heart condition, diabetes, breathing trouble—just overweight. I take celebrex every other day, baby asprin, omneprozle, claritin genetic, and vitamins. i exercise about 4 to 5 times a week at a gymn. I have a hearing problem. I do not have false teeth. so my question really when it boils down to it is which is the best kind of bridge for me to go for considering my circumstances (age, health, supplements taken etc.) would the  bridge be better if it were, ceramic or metal back teeth?

I Am Scared Of Dentists And Haven’t Been In 24 Years, My Teeth Are Cracking Though, What Is Your Advice?

Friday, March 8th, 2013
Q.

Hi,

I’m embarrassed to have to say the following. I’m a 34yr old male who hasn’t attended a dental practise since a horrible nightmare dentist appointment when I was about 10years old. I’ve always brushed my teeth over the years and generally follow a pretty healthy diet although I do prob consume alittle more chocolate than I should at times.lol I’m not overweight or nothing though and am train at a gym regularly. A few years back while on hol my tooth cracked, I never did anything about it due to my fear. Since then I’ve had 3 teeth crack and all are at gum line. I have a 4th that is partially cracked but I’m sure this will also fall out. I’m so scared but I know enough is enough and I need to seek help. I have some loss of enamel on front teeth but no cracks or nothing. I have quite alot of tartar behind front lower teeth but not upper ones. I have some occasional pain but nothing to significant. I would like some advice in my best way fwd and if you think I’m going lose all my teeth.
