One of my teeth is twisted, my dentist wants to remove it but i’m not sure if its worth it?

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011
Q.

My crown on tooth #19 needs to be replaced due to a large cavity under it. Tooth #20 is twisted by 90 degrees. My dentist wants to pull it and give me a bridge. The tooth doesn’t bother me and isn’t seen anyway; but my dentist says if I ignore it then it will eventually create other problems and may even end up breaking. Does this make since? I hate to have that work done if he is just being overly cautious.

Should I get a root canal redone or have the tooth extracted and bridge fitted?

Monday, January 31st, 2011
Q.

I have four lower front teeth that have to have the root canals redone after 17 years. I am leaning more on having them pulled and a bridge put in. What are your thoughts and are there any concerns I should have? Is this a good decision?

I have a bridge of four teeth which i don’t like, I want to thave them changed but my dentist thinks it would be risky, what do you think?

Monday, January 31st, 2011
Q.

I have a bridge of four teeth on the side of my mouth, have had them for around ten years, I have never been quite happy with them as they do not match the bridge on the other side they are slightly longer! I have asked if there would be a possibility if I could have them changed, but my dentist says its too risky and I might end up having dentures, can you advice me, and what are the chances of having to have dentures, my gums and other teeth are healthy, thank you, Regards B.

Should I have a tooth removed to have a bridge re-fitted?

Thursday, January 27th, 2011
Q.

Hello Dr Moore

I have a bridge of 4 false teeth at the front of my mouth and after 20 years the original K9 has sheared off leaving the bridge loose, I am due soon to have another denture fitted. I believe the sheared tooth will be removed and a compound used instead from the root. I was told after a second opinion within the surgery that this will only last for approx 2-3 years and I really need to consider the screw in option of which will costs me £6000 pounds of which I cannot afford. What can I do. I am seriously considering having all my teeth removed as this will be a cheaper option.

Many thanks

My fixed bridge has changed my facial appearance, what can I do?

Thursday, January 27th, 2011
Q.

I have a fixed bridge of 12 units. It was placed almost a year ago with a temporary cement by a dental technician. now I noticed that my facial appearance changed. it looks like I don’t have my front teeth, they seem to be sinking. My upper lip looks flat and my chin seems to protrude. I really feel bad looking at the mirror. How to correct this? Please help me Doctor. Many thanks to you.
