My 5 year old daughter has a severe bite problem, what can I do about this?

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010
Q.
My 5 year old daughter has a phase 3 bite. I have been advised that she can have a brace fitted to increase the size of her top jaw. I am aware that this is very expensive and I have limited resources. Can this be funded by the NHS? I do not want her to have to wait until she is a teenager. Her bite is not really bad at present but I understand that it will get significantly worse during puberty. My daughter is very tall for her age and is more than likely to hit puberty earlier than her peers. I would really appreciate some advice. Kind regards.

What can be done about veneers that keep falling off?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
I had a veneer on my upper right1 that was chipped and i went to my dentist who said it should be replaced along with the upper left 1 to make it look ok. after 1 week both veneers fell of and again i went back to the dentists who prepared the teeth again and fitted new veneers. I have just come back from a restaurant where the upper right 1 has broken off, with only three millimeters of the original tooth remaining….please help what are my options and why do they keep falling off???,
