I have huge gums and tiny teeth what would surgery cost

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008
Q.
Hi there, I am very self-conscious about my smile. I have huge gums and very tiny teeth, they look like baby teeth still. My bottom front teeth wore away all the enamel from my top two front teeth and I have had essentially fillings put on the back of them to stop them wearing down further. I fear now though, that my bottom teeth are now wearing down even more now against these fliings and they’re tiny as it is! I have a deep bite and when I totally clench my teeth you can’t see my bottom teeth at all. I think I would be a good case study! I think I would need the whole lot done! I think I would need my teeth repositioned, gum surgery and possibly veneers, but I’m no expert. :o) What is your opinion and what would those procedures cost in total?

I had 10 veneers due to tetracycline staining should i crown then now my gums are receding

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008
Q.
Hello. I had 10 Veneers 19 years ago because of Tetracycline staining. One of the veneers came off and I ate it! But the others are ok and not chipped but the gums are receding a bit. Now I am looking for advice as to whether the next step is to Crown them. My dentist says it is. (Ideally I would like implants as they sound as if they would be for life! But the cost is too great.) I am a nervous patient Can you please advise. Thank you. Kind regards.

Many thanks for your enquiry. … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I had 4 teeth extracted and my denture does not fit

Sunday, March 9th, 2008
Q.
Good afternoon, Dr. Patel. I am in need of professional advice. I have had my four front bottom teeth extracted today and a denture fitted. Once the numbness cause by the injections had subsided and I was able to have a closer look at my ‘new teeth’ I find, to my horror, that there is a 2mm gap between the ‘new teeth’ and my gum. Obviously, the denture does not fit properly. It looks absolutely grotesque. I have an appointment to see my Dentist tomorrow……what should I be looking for? I am totally shaken by what I see and I don’t know what can be done. Can you advise? Kind regards

A.
