Q. I am aged seventy two and I have had upper crowns and bridges for about twenty five years, now two of the teeth are crumbling inter palatally. This involves the left central incisor and the canine tooth. The remedy which has been suggested is to cut of my bridge between the central incisors, have the teeth removed on the upper left and then have implants. Until I get a new bridge I will need to wear dentures, the estimated cost for this is £9k. There will be two dentists involved in this; one says that I must stop smoking and the other dentist say that I do not need to. At present I am hoping that “cosmetic bonding” is an alternative. My questions are. Could “cosmetic bonding” prevent the offending teeth from additional crumbling? If implants are the only solution, will I need to stop smoking? Many thanks.
A. Bonding is a good temporary solution although if the teeth need to come out then it might not work that well. If you have implants stopping smoking will help improve the success rate.

Q. Hi i have a gap between my to front teeth and i really dislike it alot and was woundering what the best aproach is? ive heard of dentail bonding and was woundering what are your thoughts on that? ive always wanted the top teeth made into veneers to get a perfect smile but it costs to much so thats why i was woundering about bonding and how much roughly would it cost?
A. Thanks for your questions, Dental bonding could be an option, depending on the size of the gap you are trying to close. I would expect you to pay no more than £300 for the two teeth. Your other options would be veneers, which I would expect to cost between £400 – £600 per tooth, or teeth straightening for which I currwently have treatments available from £999. There are many practices now, who are able to offer monthly payments schemes such as interest free credit to help you spread the costs of treatment. I hope this helps.

Q. I very recently attempted at a local dentists office to have my canine tooth (which had bonding on it) re-bonded. I wanted it to be a solid color and shaped appropriately without harming my gum. The dentist was highly unsuccessful. The bonding looks varigated (two colors) and was either too large (looked like a dog tooth) and now too small/short. Question: should it not be simple to mix a color to match the tooth and not be varigated? Also, I had one hour whitening done and it didn’t really whiten my teeth very well. It has been less than two weeks and what whitening occurred is going away quickly. I asked if I had enough enamel for the treatment (I am 51) and did not get a reply. Any suggestions on how to get my teeth very white and a my canine to match? I do take good care of my teeth, brush, floss, etc daily FYI. Thank you!
A.
Start with sudy casts of your teeth then modify the cast to the shape that you want balanced with potential conflicts in the Occlusion / bite. Then veneer the teeth with an opaque ( normally Porcelain) Veneer. AN assesment is needed to find out if a single veneer or the visible smile (?? 8 teeth) is needed.

Q. My front teeth have got a gap. A small one. what could be done for this? I feel really down about it. thank you
A. Cosmetic bonding to add tooth coloured filling, or porcelain veneers would be common solutions to diastema closure (tech term for gaps)
The best treatment in your case can be decided after a free 15 minute initial consultation. Call Amy on 0121 643 0610 for details.

Q. Dear Dr Moore I am Writing concerning a special case of cosmetic dentistry i am interested in. I am looking for a way of reshaping 8 of my teeth (the top and bottom canines and top and bottom lateral incisors). I wanted to consult you as to the feasibility of this, and secondly if it is a service you can provide as it is reshaping the teeth rather than trying to return them to a normal shape. The effect i am after is for the canines themselves to be slightly expended (approximately 1 or 2mm) and both them and the lateral incisors to be more pointed. The intent is to be a subtle effect and must be acceptable for still eating/chewing etc. I realize in itself this request is rather unusual, but i was hoping even if you yourself cannot provide this service you might be able to point me in the direction of those who could. On that note, if you can provide this service, how much would it cost? for all 8 teeth and which would be the best way of approaching this? I would greatly appreciate any help your expertise could lend to this matter.
A. The reshaping of teeth can be carried out in a number of ways including simple bonding of white filling to the teeth (cost £50) or veneers/crowns (starting from £450). The choice depends on the durability of the material needed, the extent of the correction required and the position of the opposing teeth.
The next step is to come in for a full consultation in order to find out the type of treatment you require. If you are interested please call the clinic on 01245 268 494 Regards Andrew

Q. Hello, I am interested in the option of cosmetic bonding as my teeth are slightly even and discoloured. I would like to know the kind of prices that this would involve (I understand this will vary from dentist to dentist so just a rough idea would be great) Thanks
A. Thanks for your question, you are right in that the prices will vary between practices, but you should expect to pay between £80 – £150 for this treatment.
Many Thanks

Q. Hi, I’ve been reading about teeth bonding as a possible solution to acid erosion. My front teeth have signs of what appears to be accid erosion, although my dentist said there is no problem, but my two front teeth are translucent nearly half way up. Could you please recommend a cosmetic dentist in South Wales (Newport or Cardiff) for me to arrange an appointment to further discuss my problem? Thank you.
A. hi many thanks for your email, i unfortunately do not know any dentists personally from the area i can recommend but if you do a little research i will be happy to look at the dentist for you and give you my opinion on if the dentist will look after you on a cosmetic level.

Q. How do you protect your teeth if you have had the front teeth bonded? And what type of toothpaste should you use to keep your teeth from staining?
A. One way to protect your teeth would be to wear a night guard to protect them during your sleep. Simple toothpasts form your local chemist/supermarket will do a good job to keep your teeth clean – you may want ot visit your hygienist as well!

Q. If a child breaks a front tooth in half horizontally and you have the piece can it be reattached? What should be done with the broken tooth piece to preserve it and how long do you have to get it to the dentist?
A. I would keep it clean and safe and see your dentist as soon as possible as it can often be bonded back together.

Q. My dentist just applied bonding to the back of my front teeth. They feel thinner and now I am worried they will break easily. Also, I worry as to how long the bonding will last. If the bonding wears off, what do you do then. I dont want caps. I dont know why he chose to do this procedure. My teeth are pretty and white. Maybe because I am 59 yrs old and perhaps he thought this would help preserve them. Is this a mistake of my life? Am I headed toward more espensive procedures?
A. This is difficult to answer as there can be many reasons for bonding teeth. If you are concerned please contact your dentist to voice your concerns

Q. Hi, i wore braces for 1 and half years, but my teeth still doesnt look that good. my dentist told me that i have to wear retainerd all the time when i go bed. Just wanted to know whether if there is any chance of me stop wearing the retainers anymore? or What can i do to not to wear them anymore?
A. If they don’t look right you might need to have more active treatment before the retention, you could even try a bonded retainer as it works better if you don’t want to keep wearing a removable one.

Q. Hi my front teeth are perfectly together, however there is a small gap at the outer edge of them between the next teeth. I was wondering how much (roughly) would cosmetic bonding cost to make them look perfect and also how long does it roughly take? ( how many sessions?) It is something that has bothered me for ages and it affects my confidence so I am hoping to get it fixed. Also i have moved to Uxbridge area of Middlesex, so are there any dentists that you know of who could recommend to carry out the procedure, although if required i wouldn’t mind travelling into London. kind regards
A. Bonding takes one visit to do following a consultation. It would cost anything up to anout £400 deoending on the size. I do not know of anyone in this area but im sure if you search for a dentist in that area in google you will find many.

Q. Hello I had bulimia in the past and my teeth are heavily damaged, the front teeth especially have lost enamel and left ugly yellow marks that brings down my confidence. I am considering teeth whitening. Would this make the yellow marks disappear? Thank you for your time
A. I have treated a number of bullimic patients and if all the enamel has been removed the teeth will not whiten, better option is bonded fillings or porcelain veneers or crowns.

Q. I have bonding, approx. 12 years old, on my two front teeth which are stained yellow. I am going to do an at-home whitening system. Do I need to wait 2 weeks after I’ve totally completed the whitening before I have the bonding replaced ? Thus, do I need to wait in order for my teeth to fully absorb & change color to the final “whiteness” in order to accurately match the bonding to the new white? Also, I’ve been told that I cannot do the ZOOM in office whitening because I have extremely sensitive teeth. Is this true as well?
A. Zoom is not advised for extremely sensitive teeth.
You should wait a week after finishing the whitneing before replacing the bonding to give them time to settle.
Kind regards

Q. I am 22 and I have a gap in my front teeth and that is all that is wrong with my teeth I want to fix it but I am unemployed right now and I think my smile is the reason why.What is the cheapest and best way to fix it and are there any programs that can help me pay for it.
A. if the gap is a natural space it may be possible to bond filling onto the tooth surface to change the shape ( diastema closure ) As it is a cosmetic procedure you will probably need to pay privately ,

A. You need to have your braces removed before you have bonding or bleaching. Speak to your orthodontist and ask him when you are able to have your braces removed- I would be very surprised if it will be very much longer
