My gums are black and tearing away from my tooth, what should I do?

Thursday, August 18th, 2011
Q.

hello,

A part of my gums have gone black and have teared away from my tooth. it is hanging on by a small part and bleeds whenever I touch it. It does not hurt but is very noticeable and annoying to say the least. The part that is black is numb and I sam thinking of cutting it to get rid of it as I am very conscious of this. I do have gum disease I know this and have not been to the dentist for many years and a few of my teeth have broken. I am finding it difficult to find the courage to go to a dentist because I am embarrased by the way I have neglected my teeth but I am geting to a point where I dont think I have much time left to correct or help the problem, I would very much like your opinnion on whst I should do next.

Many thanks

Q.

Hi Dr.

I am not comfortable with my dental arrangement. The teeth on my lower jaw, talking about the front part, are not align properly with about two-tooth size gaps in between. The gum in the the same part seem to have worn out a bit but that has been the case since childhood and are always bleed when I brush my teeth

This causes me a lot of embarrassment especially have to give a presentation, etc. Is there a solution to this problem. Please help me. Thank you

Can my broken tooth be saved?

Friday, June 17th, 2011
Q.

My upper back tooth, the one just in front of my wisdom tooth has had fillings, then a root canal. A year after the root canal the front wall of the tooth (just below the gum line)broke away. The back and side walls of the tooth were still fine. My dentist suggested a crown. After working on the tooth for a while he stopped due to my gum bleeding too much. I now have a tempory material over the portion of the tooth that is left and I need to return so he can take another look at it! Do you think the tooth can be saved? If the dentist decides its not possible to fit a crown is there anything left that can be done to save the tooth? Thank you for your time doctor

What should I do about my swollen, bleeding gums caused by whitening?

Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011
Q.

Dear Rob,

I had my teeth whitened recently (using an in-office method which I was told is similar to Zoom whitening but not quite the same as it uses LED lighting) and the experience was so painful I had to interrupt the treatment mid-way. Despite this, my gums turned very white and, although they are now pink again, they are extremely painful and there is a layer of pale skin on my gums which is peeling away and bleeding. What should I do? Please help, I am very worried. I bought Corosodyl to use but since it is coloured (and my discolour my teeth at this stage) I am rincing my mouth with salt and water. Is there anything else I should be doing? Will this cause my gums to recede?

Many thanks in advance,

A.
