Should my son get implants or braces first?

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011
Q.

My son chipped his upper-left, front tooth in 1/2 at age 8 and chipped off most of the rest of it at age 16. At that time, the dentist removed the entire tooth, performed surgery to strengthen the area and I think removed nerves, and made him a fake tooth that goes in like a retainer (sorry, I’ve forgotten what this is called). Now that he is 17, we are now ready (financially) to meet with an Orthodontist about braces and an implant.

Which do you suggest happens first, the braces or the implant?

Thank you for your time.

I have damaged my retainers, can I get them replaced?

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011
Q.

Dr Butt. I have damaged my bonded and plastic retainers ovewr time from ortho treatment but the orthodontic practice where I had the treatment are refusing to help fix them based on the grounds that I am discharged from their care. Will any other orthodontic practice be able to help although I wasn’t treated there? I’m freaking out as I don’t want my teeth moving and the orthodontist who straightened my teeth years back is now retiring. Thanks

My teeth are overcrowded due to bad dental work. What should I do?

Friday, February 18th, 2011
Q.

Hi Mark,
I am 32 years old andthe dentist I used when I was 13 took the wrong teeth out, I did query this but was advised that when my wisdom teeth grew they would push my bottom teeth forward, this was incorrect.
I now have overcrowded top teeth where a tooth on witherside overlaps my front two teeth and have gaps at the bottom of my mouth, i estimate that a pound coin would easily fit in the gap.
To add to that my bottom teeth front teeth are discolouring with dark brown appearing at the root area.
I have been scared off of dentists for fear of further errors. please can you help ?
Many Thanks
Sarah
