My two central incisors are chipped on the frontal side

Friday, April 3rd, 2009
Q.
Hello :)I’m not too sure how this happened, but my two central incisors are chipped on the frontal side. The dentin is actually showing through on one.There are deep lines on those teeth – best way to describe it. It’s painful and sensitive. I’ve been told to get veneers(too expensive for me), but I was wondering if it would be possible to put a composite material on it and polish. Do you have any suggestions. I’m in dental school right now, so hopefully once I get in an office maybe veneers could be an option.Right now, it’s not resonalbe for me though.

I would like to have my teeth whitened

Friday, April 3rd, 2009
Q.
Hi, I would like to have my teeth whitened. I have tried home kits from local chemists, however, I don’t find them particulalrlky easy to use, and they don’t have the desired effect. I am now considering visiting a dentistry for a one off treatment. I have been quoted £239 foa an hour session, which should give me between 5-10 shades lighter. The proceedure is described as the following…”cold light system activates the whitening solution that is applied to your teeth, making the whitening process fast and easy. After several minutes, the light shuts off, the whitening solution is taken off, fresh solution is applied, and the whitening light is turned on again. This may be repeated a few more times”. I am seeking independant advise regarding the treatment and whether it may compromise the long term health and colour of my teeth in anyway. I have been advised that the treatment should last for 2/3 years? I really dont want to pay more than the advertised price, would you recommend another treatment type? Thanks

Is there anyway I can get my teeth straighten without having to keep wearing this retainer?

Friday, April 3rd, 2009
Q.
Between the ages of 16-18 I wore a brace. My teeth were then straight so I wore a retainer for 6 months but then lost it. I had to go back to get another brace as my teeth started to move leaving my teeth uneven again with spaces between my teeth. After wearing that brace for 6-12 months my teeth were straight again. However for the past 13 years I have been wearing a retainer each night to keep my teeth straight. I still need to wear this retainer as my teeth will move back to the way they were previously. Is there anyway I can get my teeth straighten without having to keep wearing this retainer?

Is there a procedure I can take to have my teeth show even a little?

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009
Q.
Hi, everyone says that I have a sweet smile, but I noticed that when I smile, my teeth don’t show and even if I try, they still don’t show. When I talk they show a little but not like it does with normal people. I have tried reading around this and come across things like how the lip can be too long or teeth too short. I just don’t want it to seem like I don’t have any teeth. Is there a procedure I can take to have my teeth show even a little?

A.
