Hi, I used to have a wide gap at the front of my upper teeth, which was capped in the 1980’s. I have these 2 big teeth which are very noticeable when I smile. I’m very conscious of them, and rarely smile with my teeth showing now, only with my mouth closed. I’ve asked my dentist if I can have all my teeth at the top re-capped to look even in size, but they won’t do it. I’m thinking that I have another 12 years to work until retirement, and don’t really want to be conscious all the time. Would CEREC crowns be possible on my teeth, and how much would it cost?

Am I Suitable for CEREC Treatment, and How Much Will it Cost?
Monday, May 11th, 2015The Back of My Crown Feels Rough. What Should I Do?
Wednesday, September 17th, 2014Good afternoon Dr Gambroudes, thank you for taking the time to read my question. I have just had a back crown replaced today with a CEREC crown. I have been asked to wait a week and see how it feels, and then by all means go back to the clinic if there are any problems. At the moment, it’s obviously quite sore and feeling a bit strange which is of course to be expected, but I have realised as the anaesthetic is wearing off that the back of the crown feels very rough against my tongue when other crowns I already have feel smooth. Is this normal? What should I do please? Thank you in advance.
How Much Should a CEREC Cad/Cam Inlay Cost?
Wednesday, September 17th, 2014Dear Dr Hughes, I have just had an estimate for £899.00 to have the old filling removed from a molar and a CEREC CAD/CAM inlay / overlay procedure carried out to the same molar. Does this sound to you to be a fair estimate for this treatment? I have not decided yet whether to go ahead with this procedure. I would very much like to have the procedure done, but it seems quite expensive to me. The filling that is in place, but loose at the moment, is the older mercury amalgam type. Does this make any difference to the cost of this procedure? Many thanks, I hope you can help me come to a decision.
I Am Worried About The Effects Of Amalgam Fillings. Please Guide Me On Whether I Should Go For Amalgam Fillings Or Cerec?
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2014 Hello Dr. Mark,
I have 6 cavities and I am getting them filled soon. My dentist is suggesting Amalgam fillings. I have done so much research on effect of Amalgam on health and teeth. Even composite fillings are not durable. I have come across Cerec cad cam fillings, but not sure of its durability and effects on health.
I am looking for long durable, natural looking fillings.
Please guide me on whether I should go for Amalgam fillings or Cerec? Or any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Good day!
Can You Tell Me Who In London Has The Most Expertise Using Cerec? I Have A Tooth That Requires A Crown But Would Prefer Cerec.
Friday, January 17th, 2014 Hi Mark. Can you tell me who in London has the most expertise in Cerec fillings? I have heard mixed reports on how
successful it is as a treatment. I have heard the life of such a treatment is not great and that the finish can be imperfect. I have a tooth which requires a crown but would prefer a Cerec filling if it was comparable. I need a dentist with plenty of experience with the product. I live in London and would prefer to be seen there if possible. Many thanks, I hope you can help me with this.
My Cerec Was Tightened And Now It Is Causing Major Issues, Help?
Monday, April 22nd, 2013 Since I’ve had the cerec put in I have awful toothache and it feels like it is set too high. Also there is what looks like discoloration at the gum line a the front. It hurts when I bite down. I am on pain killers to relieve the pain. I have a denture plate that attaches to the cerec and I’m unable to wear it. Originally it was loose and would move around so my dentist tightened it and now it feels very tight. Help.
I am really reluctant to go back. He has said I have gingivitis so I booked an appointment with a hygienist who said my teeth and gums were in pretty good shape .HELP !!!
Should I Have Cerec Treatment?
Thursday, April 4th, 2013 Should I have Cerec treatment done on the top four or six teeth, won’t this make the rest of my teeth look discoloured? Does one have to get the whole of the top and bottom teeth done?
Also how long do they last for and what is the price?
My teeth are not crooked, pretty straight with a small gap at the front which I would like closed up. I am now running of of things to type but I can’t send this unless I write 400 words which is pretty daft?
Thanks
How much should I expect to pay for veneers and will they blend with my existing teeth?
Monday, September 10th, 2012Hello, I am interested in getting four veneers and wondered how I would get an exact price for them please? The least expensive veneers range quite a lot and I wonder why the vary so much? The four veneers are the two teeth either side of the two main from teeth. They are fang like and the two next to them are twisted. Will the veneers blend in with my other teetg as I don’t want to have all my teeth changed to veneers.
I would be looking to do it as soon as possible are the waiting lists long? Can it be done in a day as there would be travelling involved.
Thank you,
Regards.
How good is the quality of CEREC crowns?
Tuesday, July 10th, 2012 Hi there dr Patel, I recently had my front top right crown replaced because it was a metal – ceramic and a shadow was visible at the top.However I am not happy with the new crown which is all ceramic but the colour is not quite right.
Do you only do CEREC crowns or do you use ceramic/porcelain also . I am very keen to have a good match and my current normal teeth have been whitened and are fairly translucent. Are CEREC teeth as good looking as a good porcelain tooth. I am really upset with the work that has recently been done and I want to have the best possible work done. Thank you for your time.
I have neglected my teeth because of dental phobia, can veneers fill in the missing teeth?
Tuesday, June 26th, 2012hello dr moore i would like to start by telling you that i am very scared of going to the dentist and because of this i have neglected my teeth in the past , i have now decided to have my teeth repaired before its too late. i watched a program on tv last night about instant veneers and i am very interested about them because there isnt any drilling or pain involved (which is why i have being missing my dentist appointments in the first place). i have some of my side teeth missing and i was wondering if i could i have instant veneers to fill in the gaps or would i have to go to the dentist to have new teeth screwed in first then have the veneers that go over your teeth thanks for your time.
