Q. Dr Tennet, My upper two front teeth have 40 year old root canals. What is left of the teeth themselves is a very fragile & dark brown. What is the best cosmetic choice for covering them? I currently have porcelain crowns with white (titanium?) cores. They are ok, but not super. Any other options? Also, the gum above one of the crowns protrudes a bit more than its neighbor. That developed after the crowns were replaced a few years ago. My doctor has x-rayed and it doesn’t show an infection. I’m guessing a lot can go wrong with old dental work? Any advice would be appreciated
A.
Discoloured Root filled teeth can be a problem to shade match All ceramic Zirconia cores are a good route but the level of opaque will need to be judged by trial and error it usually requires a few visits. The crown margins should be about 1mm below the gum line to hide the dark root emerging. If this is not possible then some periodontal plastic surgery to reshape the gum using grafts / emdogain etc might be an option.

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. Hi, I have just returned from a visit to my dentist today. My appointment was for preparation for a crown on upper molar, second from back. This tooth had broken in half followng root canal treatment and filling 5 years ago. My current dentist put a temporary cover on it and we left it for six months to ensure that the seal hadn’t been breached. When he removed the temporary today he advised he would be unable to save the tooth as what was left of the tooth was partially below the gum-line rendering a crown that would not be viable. He suggested either a bridge, which he felt was not a good option due to the grinding down of the adjacent teeth and suggested an implant at a cost of £2,000. Having done some research on the internet some sites have said that crowns can be placed even if there is only a root left (that has had root canal treatment) and a post can be inserted into the root for the crown to be attached to. Can you advise if this is a possibility please? I look forward to your response. Many thanks.
A. the details are all important here. some teeth can be managed with crowns some are better extracted.
the size, shape and location of the residual tooth : filling are all important.
Before implants there were several common ways to solve the problems. But the fix might only last 5-10years, Implants can be more predictable in some cases. so tend to be increasing in popularity.

Q. I have recently completed a course of cosmetic dental treatment which included a porcelain veneer on one of my front teeth. I don’t feel at all happy with it as it is rough to the touch and not the same colour as the other tooth. It appears almost stained!I am concerned to speak to my dentist as a complaint seems an insult to his work, however, the treatment was expensive and I am not happy with the result. Your advice would be appreciated as I don’t believe a pocelain veneer should be rough. Thank you for any help you are able to offer.
A.
Thanks for getting touch, I would recommend that you do return to your dentist and explain your concerns. I would much prefer my patients to be happy with their treatment and be able to recommend my work. It may be that there is a little excess cement left from when the veneer was fitted. However in respect of the colour, the veneer should be enhancing your smile without standing out, and so the dentist may have to consider remaking the veneer in a shade which better matches your natural teeth shade. I hope this helps.
Many thanks

Q. I have quite severe overcrowding in my lower teeth leaving the front 4 quite crooked, one in particular which is pushed back behind the others. My top teeth are also slightly crooked but nowhere near as bad as the bottom. It has left me miserable and embarrassed to talk or smile. I am 30 years old. What would be your recommended treatment, how much is it likely to cost, and are such treatments usually payable by a payment plan? Thank you.
A. Thanks for your questions, you should be pleased to find out that most practices which offer teeth straightening treatments have the facility to provide payment plans. Many even offer interest free credit, subject to status. There are many straightening systems available, all with there own advantages, from invisible braces, to braces which work in as little as six weeks. Although prices will vary between systems and practices, I can tell you that I currently offer treatments from £999. I hope this helps.

Q. Hi, I have had problems with mt teeth for many years after being on stroids as a child. In April I had my entire top set of teeth taken out in preparation for implants, I lost confidence in my dentist after many issues. The final straw was when after quoting verbaly that it would cost in the region of £8-10k, he then after extractions quoted 15k!! I have no real idea of the correct price and am getting quotes. I live in Derby and would like to find someone I can trust/within a reasonable travelling distance and at an honest price. Can you advise/support? Thanks for your time.
A. Hi
I am more that happy to see you for a consultation. If you would like to book one, please contact reception on 01509 23 11 44.

Q. I’m thinking about getting a brace as my two front teeth are inverted, i beleive this was caused by my wisdom teeth putting pressure on them (I have since had all my wisdom teeth removed) I would like to know if a brace could fix them and make them straight, how much it will cost, and how long the procedure will take and what type of braces involved. If you can get back to me with the above information I will be very grateful.
A. I’m sure a brace will help to straighten the teeth. There are lots of different types of braces available including fixed or removable. If you would like me to give you an idea of your optins please feel free to contact me on 01245 268 494.

Q. I recently have finished my treatment with invisalign with a clinic in harley street. Yet, me teeth are still protruding from the front.Although,the arch in my mouth is now aligned. I expected my front two teeth to be pushed in completely. I now have been told that I will have to have 4 teeth taken out and fixed braces for 18 months for them to be pushed in. Are there any other options which can be taken as this treatment is very long?
A. Hi
Unfortunately it is impossible to give options without looking at the mouth. If you have concerns, then you may consider getting other opinions from other clinics. Sorry i cant help more than that.

Q. Hi there. I noticed on your website that it says the cost of treatment can be between £1000 and £2500 per treatment – does that mean ‘Per trip for treatment’ or the treatment as a whole (ie: by set of aligners).
A.
I thnk from the details that you provide, you are loking into different teeth straightening methods, so I can tell you that £1000 – £2500 would be the price range for the different systems. That would be a full set of aligners in the case of Invisalign for example. I hope that helps.

Q. I am 23. I had braces for 18 months when i was 17/18 on the NHS and my teeth were perfect. I was given a retainer that broke and because i didnt realise how imortant it was i didnt get it replaced. Since then my teeth are moving back to their original position – if I want them re-done or whatever is needed will I have to pay again? If so without knowing the full extent of the movement how much do you think this would be?
A. Thanks for your enquiry, unfortunately, you would now need to pay for any orthodontic treatment as this is very rarely available to adults on NHS. Although prices will vary between practices and for different straightening systems, I can tell you that the current costs at my practices start from £999. I hope this helps.

Q. I am a professional trumpeter with a protruding upper tooth which affects my playing. I am wondering if having it removed and a dental implant inserted would help. How long after initial consultation would you typically be doing the surgery? How long after surgery would I be able to play trumpet? How many appointments are normally required?
A. Because you are a professional musician the procedure would need careful planning . Same day implants are suitable in some cases, although the success rates are higher if there is a delay of 3 to 6 months before restoration. an initial consultation at the stjohns dental practice is free contact amy for details 01216430610

Q. hi i got a single yellow upper front teeth. it looks very ugly . iwant to get rid of this problem .if i go for surgery how much it cost for me pls help
A. Thanks for your question, you may wish to consider having a veneer placed on the tooth. This is a thin layer of porcelain which can be used to alter the size shape and colour of your tooth. The shade of your veneer could be chosen to match your other teeth, hence creating a more uniform look to your smile. Although the costs will vary between practices, you should expect to pay between £400 – £600 for a veneer. Many cosmetic practices who offer these services, will also have the facility to offer payment options such as interest free credit to help spread the cost. I hope this will be of assistance to you.

Q. I had 2 caps done that I wasn’t really sure about the way they did it. That is, they joined the two teeth together, rather than making them individual caps. The first go around they were individual caps but alot of food was getting stuck in between and so they join them…I’m not sure I like that idea…two caps joined together, what do you think?
A. May be a good idea if the height of the underlying teeth is poor or the teeth are mobile

Q. Hi, I had a brace as a child to correct two prominent front teeth. Which was done successfully, but over the years they have slowly returned to how they were. My question is would it be possible for these teeth to be replaced by implants, or is the only option the lengthy process of having another brace fitted?
A. The most likely option for you would be brace work – possibley invisalign that would be more socially acceptable
