Q. I am very worried about a friend of mine who is very unhappy about her teeth. She has had severe gum disease and has lost some teeth and although the gum disease has now gone her gums and teeth are not in a good way. She can not afford the cosmetic dentistry that she needs and this is now impacting on her life. She has become very self conscious and has lost a lot of her self confidence. Is there any funding available to help her?
A. Thanks for your questions, I would suggest that you encourage your friend to arrange an appointment at her local NHS practice. The pricing structure for NHS treatment is fixed, and even free, depending on the patients personal circumstances. The dentist would be able to advise your friend of how to improve her smile with as little financial output as possible. Many Thanks

Q. My 23-year-old daughter has a 6 tooth bridge across one incisor to the other. This was because she was missing 2 laterals. This was done instead of implants because of severe bone loss of the missing laterals and not enough space for implants. She did have braces but unfortunately had an orthodontist that didn’t know what he was doing, causing these problems. An excellent prosthodontist suggested either redo braces and gum grafting or a bridge. For monetary reasons and my daughter not wanting go through this all over again for years she chose a bridge. This is when she was 19. Is it possible for her to get implants and crowns or once a bridge, always at bridge?
A. It doesn’t sounds like anything has changed regarding the space or bone for implants and now the teeth have been trimmed (i presume) it isn’t really worth considering replacing everything. If the bridge starts to fail then the situation may change and implants may become an option then.

Q. Hi Due to gum disease I lost all of my teeth last year. I would like to know how much it would cost to have full upper and lower implants. i have been quoted from the ridiculous £40,000.00 to the even more ridiculous £6,000.00 (some difference) this is a procedure i will definately be having as soon as possible. Can you please let me know what the correct cost would be? Many thenks
A. Its very difficult to give you a quote without seeing you and assessing the amount of bone you have, how many implants you need and how many teeth to finish things off. As a guide, assuming you will need some bone rebuilding we would charge in the region of £12-15,000 per jaw for 12 fixed teeth held with 8 implants.
let me know if you would like me to take a look and give you a better idea of the costs involved

Q. I suffer from severe teeth grinding and i also have bad gum disease although i am only 34 and have never had a filling. i went away travelling and have not seen a dentist for over 5 years. i would like to know if i am treatable and what my options are for a smile makeover as my teeth are now yellowing, there is some movement and the gums are tender sometimes, I have started to become very self conscious and upset about it. Can veneers be fitted if someone has gum disease, what costs am i looking at or do you think i need false teeth?
A. hi many thanks for your email, it is difficult to say whether your teeth are savable or not the best thing would be to come for a free consultation where i can assess your mouth and give you some options on how to improve things for you.

Q. i think i have receeding gums,my top front tooth is getting longer then the rest,can it be fix with a nice smile?Or am i doomed!
A. Yes it can! You may have gum disease but you may just need a brace to move your teeth into a more stable position – teeth keep on growing if they are not in a stable position

Q. i had a fronr tooth capped due to absess some years ago i came out some time ago and a dentist said that the rest of the tooth has to come out i agree with this but i am terrified of dental work i want to have either an implant or a bridge inserted but the gum where this tooth was has receeded [where they cut my gum to remove the absess]please advise me of the best option i am 65 and suffer with copd
A.
Usually I would recommend an implant because the research shows that they last the longest. However you would need to be assessed for bone volume for the implant and have the aesthetics carefully assessed

Q. I am 59 years old. i have lost all of my back teeth due to gum disease. The last of the teeth were removed about two years ago. Since then, due to constantly chewing with my front teeth i am now having problems with them. I have tried a National health service denture but could not get used to it. What treatment would you recommend to replace my back teeth ? and to save my front teeth ?
A. Thanks for your questions, if you are unable to cope with a removable denture, I would suggest that you consider implants. These can be used to stabilise a denture or to support fixed teeth. I would recommend that you attend a consultation with an implant dentist, many of which offer free initial consultations, at which you would be able to discuss the process and make an informed choice based on the facts without any financial commitments. I hope this helps.
Many thanks

Q. My top four front teeth have been on a denture for over 20 years. During that time my gums have receded quite a lot. Both teeth on either side of the four now look silly as the teeth themselves look very long as the gums have receded so much. I have quite a wide smile/laugh but over the years I have tried to limit this as I am very aware of how noticeable the ‘long’ teeth are. Have you any ideas??
A. You probably need a new denture with the teeth correctly placed and the correct amount of gum

Q. I damaged my front tooth when i was younger this made it slack I was then given root treatment and in time my tooth started to discolour, it was then suggested i get an veneer, this venner looked good but after 3 yrs it chipped and I needed to get it replaced,my second veneer was only in for 2 weeks when it cracked from the inside.I was then given my third within 6 months this one became noticeably darker, my dentist advised me to get yet another, I am just home from appt and this veneer is slightly better but at my gum area all you can see is blackness. I did say that I was’nt happy with it but he expressed that is the best he can do with what he has to work with, my own tooth is black and yellow as he showed me. i am wondering if you could advise on any other options. thanks
A. Thanks for your questions, you may wish to consider having a crown on the tooth instead of a veneer. Although it would involve more preperation of the tooth, a crown would be much less transparent hence consealing the discolouration. I would recommend that you speak to your dentist to gain his professional opinion on the merit of this in your case. I hope that his helps.

Q. I’ve always had lovely teeth & visited the dentist regularly.About a year ago I noticed that every time I brushed, my gums would bleed.My dentist suggested various gels for gum disease,but now my top front tooth is slightly twisted and I still bleed.After having some x-rays Ive been told I have lost bone tissue and the next tooth may also come loose.I asked about implants. It has been explained to me that because there is a loss of bone an implant would not be possible at the moment.A bone graft/implant has been suggested.Can you give me some information on this.Where is the bone taken from? Is it done under general anisthetic? I am extreemly worried. I want my teeth to look good and I dont like pain.
A. Thanks for your questions, it is possible to carry out the procedure using an artificial bone, to prevent the need for a graft from another site on your body. This procedure can be carried out under local anaesthetic, although some clinicians will be able to offer Intravenous sedation, if you feel this would help you. The aartificial bone is then allowed to integrate for a period of months, before the process to place the implants would begin. I hope this heglps.
Kind regards

Q. I have a temporary on a tooth. It has been in for about 2 weeks. Just recently my gum in front of the temporary is really hurting and is bothering me above the tooth and in between the tooth. What should I do? I have flossed and no food is coming out? Could it be that I have cut the gum with my floss?
A. It does sound like a gum problem, get your dentist to check it out next week

Q. I have had one place on my lower front tooth that has been receded for 10+ years. When I first noticed it I started using the Sonicare toothbrush and have used one twice a day since that time. I have obviously purchased new ones over the years, and do not let the head of toothbrush get old and frayed. My overall dental health is excellent, my gums do not bleed when brushing or flossing. Recently (approximately two weeks ago) I noticed the gum area below the tooth was very tender and when I looked, I saw that it was extremely white all around the base of the tooth. I had been using one of those peroxide whitening mouth rinses once a day for about one year. I thought it may have been related so I stopped using it. Since then the area is still very white, with no pain (unless I mess with it.) The gumline below the white area is somewhat more red in color that the rest of my gumline, but again no tenderness or pain. I do not smoke,have never chewed (I am a female)I drink about 3-4 cups of coffee per week. I take a blood pressure med once a day and am 51 yrs. old. Should I be concerned and see a dentist or am I being an alarmist?
A. Go and see your dentist for them to assess the situation

Q. What is oral thrush? How do you get rid of it? Thanks
A. Oral thrush is a viral infection caused by candida it can has a number of causes you need to go to your dentist and they will give you a prescription for some anti-viral medication. If you wear a denture that can be a cause of it the denture needs to disinfected and you would need to keep it out for about 4-6 hours a day to let the tissues in your mouth breath.
