Q.
I had a removable partial denture fitted 3 days ago. I can’t speak or eat with it and I’m sure the problem is because of the acrylic palate. Is it possible to have the palate removed? I have four teeth on the denture which are held in with two clasps and it is so hard to remove it. I haven’t put it in today, because its too difficult to get out again. Please advise. Many thanks

Hi I have had a crown in place for 15 years+. Think it must have metal in it as I now have a dark tone to the gum above the tooth. Can this be rsolved or is it a case of replacing the crown with another material? Thanks.

Q.
I have an overbite and i’m losing my 4 front teeth.I’m thinking of removing the teeth and getting partial acrylic dentures and wearing them for a year and then switching to the flexi partial or dental implants whichever will be easeier on my wallet.My question is should i get braces first and then worry about my teeth falling out later? The reason i ask is because another dentist recommended just that and thought it was odd but then again i’m not a dentist.I will appreciate your response in this matter cause i’m so confused and i need to decide which will be the most effective dental plan for me.Thank you so much.

Q.
At the moment I have a 4 tooth bridge which is at the front on my upper teeth. It is a hinge which I have been told is broken so at the moment this is only supported on the one side which is on a post. I have been told by 2 dentists that as this is a large bridge I will now have to have a denture which although not happy have accepted this is the only solution. My problem that before I had my bridge had a plate and as have a strong gag reflex didn’t not get on with this at all also when I was eating it shifted as was most uncomfortable. I have been shown a denture that is metal and doesn’t seem to cover the roof of my mouth would this be a better option than the normal partial acrylic denture for me? I have been told that this is not available on the NHS? Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Q.
I have never had good teeth and now have no top teeth left.I’am 35 now but have always had a fear of the dentist. I hate having dentures as they have taken away any confidence i used to have.Every time i go to the dentist i always seem to come away with dentures that have teeth that are bigger than which was on my old plate. I have been wearing the same plate for years which has no gum above the teeth and find that i cannot wear the full set of dentures they try to give me as they feel awkward and make me gag. Can you advise me if i have any other available options rather than dentures. i would love to have the roof of my mouth back again rather than a plastic one but understand this may not be optimistic. with thanks.

Q.
I have been given a kit called ‘day white excel 3’ from my dentist in Australia. I used the kit last week for 9 days straight and was meant to leave it on for half an hour, but sometimes left it for over an hour. I had very sensitive teeth afterwards and felt that diet coke or anything acidic afterwards was attacking my teeth. It looks like some enamel may have been eroded the root s of some of my teeth, is this possible or could the whitening highlight a problem that may already be there? In addition do fizzy drinks and sparkling water erode the enamel on teeth over time? Thanks in advance.
