My son fell and has a loose front tooth. He is 2 years old and I’m afraid he will develop a speech impairment since it is his front tooth and he may loose it at such a young age. Is it possible for him to have veneers or any type of cosmetic surgery for his front tooth temporary until his permanent tooth comes?

After the failure of my bridge what are my options to replace it?
Thursday, March 31st, 2011I lost my two front teeth in a mining accident when I was about 20 years old. About 15 years ago I had a bridge made and was reasonably happy with the result. last week the bridge broke and the two teeth supporting it are no longer able to support a replacement which leaves me with large gap which I have a temporary denture. My dentist suggested implants as a solution can you please suggest my options and approximate costs. I am now 64 but go scuba diving and play flugal horn as a hobby which present difficulties with dentures.. Your help would be much appreciated
Will teeth extraction from the back of my mouth make my cheeks look sunken?
Wednesday, March 30th, 2011I have 2 top back teeth that need extraction on the same side. The alternative option is expensive and might not work due to heavily filled teeth and infection. If I decided to have these extracted would it make my cheek look abit sunken? futurewise I would have an implant in place once its all healed. Thanks
How to I stop other gaps forming after a tooth extraction?
Wednesday, March 30th, 2011Hi there, I have a question about tooth extraction. I had my molar taken out which has left behind a huge gap. When i smile, you can see that my molar is not there! I do have a wide smile. My question is, will the rest of my teeth move towards that side to fill the gap? therefore creating gaps between my teeth? I already have two gaps which are getting wider and i hate smiling because of them! Plz plz plz can you give me some advice on how to prevent this from happening, what are my options? Many thanx.

I have a missing tooth, will the gap eventually close or should I have something done?
Friday, March 25th, 2011I have one tooth missing in the front at the bottom. My teeth are all crooked and need space between them. I feel that eventually the space will close up since the actual space is not that of a full normal teeth, it is the space created form the removal of a crooked tooth. Do u think that it is possible over time(has been 2 years already) that the space will close up if not, then what can I do besides an implant to get rid of the space.
I am losing teeth, what could I do to stop this and fill the gaps left?
Friday, March 18th, 2011Good afternoon,
I am a 28 year old male with a loose tooth in my lower jaw. If I count from the front backwards it is the 4th tooth in. I have healthy gums and visit my dentist (NHS patient) every six months for routine checks. I have only 2 fillings having recieved my 2nd aprox 1 year ago.
I have had orthodontic treatment as a child and have also had teeth removed as part of treatment due to over crowding. The tooth that is loose has been for aprox over 10 years. If it is knocked by hard food it will usually tighten after a week or so, however recently it was disturbed by eating something hard and I think it is on its last legs. This tooth is sits between a canine tooth and a back molar. So, in total in my lower jaw I have 4 big back molars, 4 smaller back molars, 2 canines, 4 incisors at the front and this one odd loose tooth between a small molar and canine. This particular tooth I believe should have been removed during my orthodontic treatment but for whatever reason was not. Now it is ready to come out and I will be left with a noticeable gap.
In your experience what would you recommend be put in place or what treatment is available?
Regards.
My son broke his teeth in an accident, how can this best be rectified?
Tuesday, March 15th, 2011My son (20yrs old) fell and hit his 2 front teeth and 1 tooth on the side of front teeth. The side tooth has truned black (they want to do rtc and crown. 1 front tooth got pushed back (blowed the socket) and has a crack up in the gum and broke about half of it off, but it is still white (they want to pull and put in a bridge). The other one is half broke off (they want to fill). This was done two days ago. I would like to know if there is any other solutions that would be better. Please let me know.
