Q. hello, i was wondering would it be free if i get a silver crown/tooth on the second tooth next to the front teeth because it really hurts whenever i eat sweets or whenever i drink fizzy drink etc. would i have to pay for the tooth or would the NHS cover it,
A. If you are recieving benefits you can get the treatment free on the NHS, I don’t think they would supply you with a silver crown it would be a porcelain one. I would conatct a NHS dentist for advice.

Q. I wanted to know what procedure could be carried to improve the look of my two front teeth, they are alot longer than my other teeth. I also would like to know how much it would cost. Thank you.,
A. You may be able to trim the teeth back a small amount however if it needs more than a couple of millimetres then you’ll probably bed to veneer the teeth to make them look right. Veneers cost from £500 per tooth.

Q. I got veneers about 10 years ago on the nhs, my 4 front teeth were done. I didnt ask for them but it was done as my front teeth had some acid erosion. Can these be replaced on the nhs or would I have to pay privately?,
A. You would have to register with a NHS dentist. If you want them replacing for cosmetic reasons then you might then they might decline your treatment.

Q. Hi, My teeth need whitened, all are slighly discoloured however when I was younger I cracked the front left tooth and required a veneer, this tooth is beginning to darken dramaically and I think it will turn black soon. Is it possible to get all my teeth whitened and what would you suggest? (Bleaching, laser treatment or any other affordable procedures) Thank you.,
A. Internal bleaching following
root canal treatment of the darkening tooth in combination with external bleaching could work – you may need a new veneer

Q. Hi sir, i am 19 years old and as a young woman my appearance is vital to me. When i was 6 years old i fell down a flight of stairs and had to undergo surgery to place my dental structure back into place however through the years i have experienced several problems because of this. They have become displaced and are not straight . the enamel has worn off the bottom front row and have discouloured generously my gums are very weak the slightest touch and they bleed wich then makes it hard and uncomfortable brushing my teeth so i have dificulty batteling plack. My mouth is in constant pain and it is getting to the point where i cannot cope any more . is there any help i can get out there to make me smile again?,
A. The first thing you need to do is get your gums under controll, you will need to see a dental hygienist before starting any other treatment. You need to see a dentist for a consultation asap.

Q. Hi, recently I visited my dentist and he informed me I have a class 3 bite (My lower jaw sticks out), He said it’s advisable that I undergo surgery, I also suffer from Diastema, I was wondering if once I do undergo surgery will I also be given braces for the diastema aswell?,
A. Once the surgery has been performed the braces are usually fitted. I would speak to your surgeon who is performing the surgery for more accurate advise.

Q. I have previously (about a year ago) had microabraision on my two front teeth which have fluorosis (white stains). It reduced the appearance of one tooth but not the other. The dentist stopped the process as my teeth were getting too sensitive. I wanted to ask whether its worth trying again. I have spoken to a couple of dentists and both have given conflicting advice – one says it may work again and the other said if it didnt work on one tooth it means the stain is too deep in the enamel. The white stain looks brighter some days especially after i have brushed my teeth. I would appreciate your honest opinion,
A. I would agree with the dentist who says the defect is too deep although I cannot be 100% sure without seeing you.

Q. I have 6 veneers on my front top teeth. I had them placed over 20 years ago and have never had any problems. Last year one fell of and was successfully replaced. About a month later one of my large front ones fell off and has been replaced 3 times. Two others came off after that and they seem to have been successfully replaced. My question is can the porcelain from the one which keeps falling off be contaminated in some way or is it more likely to be either the bonding or the process which is at fault?,
A. Its very difficult to rebond a veneer especially one thats been on for a long time, you may have to consider replacing them, 20 years is excellent for crowns and veneers

Q. Hi, I’ve had 12 teeth in my top set all crowned on 2 occasions. 1st time they were great, but I wanted a whiter colour. 2nd time they came out grey looking, and I’m not keen on the shape of some of them. I would like flat white (not translucent) , even teeth. I know they look false, but it’s what I want. Can this be done with CEREC? How long do CEREC crowns last for? Can I get the whole lot done in a short time? Thanks,
A. This can certainly be done and is ideal for Cerec. The treatment could be cone in 1 visit once an assessment has been carried out. Cerec crowns have been shown to last at least as long as Laboratory made crowns. In fact I am returning from giving a lecture on just this subject in Las vegas. Please contact my practice for an appointment and we’ll get your smile to just how you want it.
