Q. My front teeth are big and prutruding, i wore a brace when I was younger, but probably did not give it enough time. I have always been paraniod of my teeth, and now coming up to my wedding i dread the photos. How much on average would it cost to correct?
A. Although the cost of teeth straightening will vary between practices, I can tell you that my practices are currently offering teeth straightening systems from £99. It may also help you to know that there are systems available now which can acheive results in as little as six weeks. I hope this helps.

Q. HI Dr Andrew Moore,I was just wanting to know what is the cost of braces? My Own dentist has never advised i need them but i think myself i do? i do work full time and 19? could you possible help ! Thanks
A. Hello, thanks for your question. There are lots of different types of braces for different degree’s of crowding and what you want to wear during the treatment. There are invisable braces such as Invisalign, fixed braces including 6 month smiles and removable braces such as the Inman aligner. I would recommend a free smile consultation to give you a better idea of what we can do for you. If you would like me to take a look please e-mail enquiry@advancedentalclinic.com or call my clinic on 01245 268 494
Regards Andrew

Q. Hello , i am 22 years old, i am in london for about 3 years and i am asylum seeker i dont work and i cant work but can you tell me how much is fees to straighten my upper front teeth for inman aligner treatment? and and if its affordable can i pay treatment fees in installments? and if not then can u tell me which is fast and easy way to straighten my teeth? and can u suggest any doctor who do inman aligners treatment in india? waiting for your reply . Thank you.
A. Thanks for your questions, the cost for the Inman aligner will vary between practices, but I am currently offering this service from £999. Many cosmetic dental practices do offer payment plans, but to the best of my knowledge, you (or your partner) would need to be in employment. The Inman aligner is one of the most cost effective and quickest treatments available to straighten teeth. I would suggest, that you research providers in India on the internet. Kind Regards.

Q. I recently have finished my treatment with invisalign with a clinic in harley street. Yet, me teeth are still protruding from the front.Although,the arch in my mouth is now aligned. I expected my front two teeth to be pushed in completely. I now have been told that I will have to have 4 teeth taken out and fixed braces for 18 months for them to be pushed in. Are there any other options which can be taken as this treatment is very long?
A. Hi
Unfortunately it is impossible to give options without looking at the mouth. If you have concerns, then you may consider getting other opinions from other clinics. Sorry i cant help more than that.

Q. Hi I have wonkey teeth and i was wondering would braces straighten them out without having major surgery? And can you get clear braces? Look forward to hearing from you Thank You
A. Thanks for your questions, braces are used to straighten misaligned teeth, but I would recommend that you visit a dental professional to find out for certain if this is suitable for your particular case. There are clear brace systems on the market now which can be used, such as Invisalign and Clearstep. I wish you well with your treatment.

Q. ok i 13 i have a gap in between my wide two front teeth and ppl say its fine and it well close and i have all my adult teeth and i have a missing adult tooth in the back and i say i need braces or a retaner but with do u think i should do?
A. Thanks for your questions, I suggest that you attend a dental practice to obtain a professional opinion on whether you would benefit from braces or not. Once a dentist has seen you, they will be able to refer you on to an Orthodontist, if necessary, where you will be able to receive treatment. I wish you well.

Q. I am 23. I had braces for 18 months when i was 17/18 on the NHS and my teeth were perfect. I was given a retainer that broke and because i didnt realise how imortant it was i didnt get it replaced. Since then my teeth are moving back to their original position – if I want them re-done or whatever is needed will I have to pay again? If so without knowing the full extent of the movement how much do you think this would be?
A. Thanks for your enquiry, unfortunately, you would now need to pay for any orthodontic treatment as this is very rarely available to adults on NHS. Although prices will vary between practices and for different straightening systems, I can tell you that the current costs at my practices start from £999. I hope this helps.

Q. Hi, i’m 18 and i had braces for 2 years when i was 13. since then i havent had any trouble until recently when my lateral incisor has felt slightly loose. this was one of the teeth which moved the most during my orthodontic treatment. in the past few weeks it has felt slightly painful in what im assuming is the root. i have noticed it has moving so i’ve had to wear my retainers every night nd they feel tight around this tooth whenever i put them in. is this normal? i have also read that these sort of symptoms can be related to sinus problems, is this likey? i did mention that my tooth felt loose to my dentist but he said it was about 0.5 on the scale of looseness and not to worry, did he miss something? generally my teeth are healthy and i have not noticed any abcesses.
A. a radiograph to exclude resorption might help. Rob

Q. Good day Dr. Solanki. I had dental braces for 2 years and 6 months and I am quite satisfied with the result except for one thing. One of my front top tooth is kinda “pear shape”. That tooth was protruding in before the braces and when it was aligned after the appliance, there was a wee gap at the top part of that tooth near my gum that can be seen everytime I would widely smile or grin which looks so unappealing. My orthodontist said it was because of the shape of my teeth. Is there a remedy for this? I hope there is, after all the costs and pains of wearing the braces. I hope its all worth it.
A. Thanks for your questions, you may wish to consider having the tooth veneered. A veneer is a thin layer of porcelain which is made to fit over the front surface of the tooth and can be used to alter the shape. However an alternative, less expensive, and more conservative option may be to consider using a composite material to desguise the shape. I hope this helps.
Many Thanks

Q. my two front teeth sick way out what could be done to fix them other than braces
A. hi many thanks for your email, the other option would be to use veneers/crowns to bring them back in the smile. however the teeth may require root canal treatment. there is a case on my website under goofy teeth which give you an idea of the type of treatment that can be achieved.
hope this is helpful.

Q. hi I would just like to know about the metal chrome cobalt denture -the factors that need to be considered before the denture is prepared. thankyou
A. This seems like a question a dentist would ask. Broadly speaking you need to assess the patients general health. Then local factors such as bone pathology, gum health, tooth health. Finally design needs to be considered such as path of insertion, clasping, pretreatment tooth adjustment etc

Q. I am interested in permanent fangs. I’ve heard of two options– one where you can have your teeth sanded down to a certain point, and have veneers placed over them, and they would be like that, permanent, for 15 or so years before they needed to be replaced. And then the more expensive sort– titanium rod implants where the actual bone is modified to give VERY permanent-no-changing-your-mind-later fangs. Is there any more infortmation on these? More specifically, I’d like to know about the former, because I am interested in having it done. Are these permanent to the point where they will not fall off even eating tough things such as steak? To sleep with the
m on, and have them until the 15 years or so is up? Can you give any more infortmation about these, and if you do them? For how much, if so, and every fifteen years, will I have to pay again? And in the event that I may want to switch over from these to the titanium rod fangs– could I? Thank you.
A. You would need to visit your dentist

Q. I had root treatment on one of my front teeth years ago and the tooth has gone grey, would whitening help or would a veneer be preferable, if so how much would one veneer cost? Thanks
A. hi many thanks for your email, the gery tooth can be treated by internal whitening but this is sometimes unpredictable and even if the tooth whitens sometimes the colour can reverse.
the veneer is more predictable and long term, the cost of a single tooth veneer can range from £500 – £1200. dependant on where you go. my charge is usually £750.
hope this is helpful.

Q. Hi, our son has special needs (learning difficulties etc). We have seen the community dentist who wants to give him G.A and remove all his teeth that have cavities/ gone bad. We’ re not happy with this- we feel any tooth that can be filled should be!! We’re wondering if there’s a private dentist that would treat our son, and keep as many teeth as poss!! He’s waited 6 months already for an appt to have a bad tooth removed that we know has had an abcess on it!! Please help!!
A. hi many thanks for your email, the issue is how cooperative your son is while having dental treatment and what age he is. other options are sedation for treatment but he does need to be a minimum age of 16. hope this is helpful. i would be happy to assess your son and give you some more options that are available in the private sector.

Q. I had 2 caps done that I wasn’t really sure about the way they did it. That is, they joined the two teeth together, rather than making them individual caps. The first go around they were individual caps but alot of food was getting stuck in between and so they join them…I’m not sure I like that idea…two caps joined together, what do you think?
A. May be a good idea if the height of the underlying teeth is poor or the teeth are mobile

Q. I thought of going to have my silver fillings to be replaced with composite materials in one of my molar tooths. But some of the current silver fillings stick to my gums, how does the dentist going to remove it? Will it cause my gums to bleed during the drilling? I am concern that the harmful silver particles will get into my gums.
A. hi many thanks for your email, the silver fillings that are placed close to your gums will still be removed and can be replaced with the white filling material. the silver filling material will not harm your gums.
