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. I have had braces and yet i have a small gap between my two front teeth, my orthadontist said i should go and see my dentist for bonding or venners as there is nothing else she can do. i was just wondering which technique is better and longer lasting and if they are stain resistant. Also i may consider home teeth whitening kits, and was wondering if they the veneers or the bonding will whiten also. morevover can you please tell me the NHS prices fro these and if there is a significant reduction in prices if you are a university student.
A. Thanks for your enquiry, firstly these procedures would be classed as cosmetic, and so would probably not be available on the NHS. If you are considering having your teeth whitened, then I would encourage you to do this before you have any restorations placed on your teeth, as whitening only works on your natural tooth. The material which is then used would be matched to the whitened shade of your teeth. There are benefits to both tooth bonding and to veneers, as tooth bonding is a less invasive treatment however veneers would lead to a more aesthetically pleasing result in my opinion. I hope this helps.
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. I went to a local dentist and ask about my options for my two front teeth that are SLIGHTLY worn away on the bottom. he said he would do crowns. I said NO. BECAUSE I didn’t want so much of my teeth to be taken away. He said he would do veneers. I left the office devistated because he took my two front teeth down to miniature chicklets. He put on temps that are joined together in the center and are very tough.
I am sick over this.He is charging more for veneers than crowns. He has now choice to me but to do crowns. What can I do. I called the office and left a message to call me immediately on Monday. What is my recourse?
A. Ideally you should have discussed this before any treatment was done, sometimes cosmetic bonding can repair chipped teeth in a minimal way. If the teeth are now prepared veneers are the better option. Please talk to your dentist.

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.
Kind regards

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 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 ,

Q. i was looking to get my teeth bonded and whiting but he only issues is that i have braces. i got the braces three yrs ago 2 close the gaps in mouth but it is taking way to long the orthodontic who put them on said 11 months max yet it has been going on three now i’am so sick and tired of this things please tell me you can help ME!!!!!
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

Q. I have booked an appointment with you to get some advice about what to do with my old bonding on the front of my two front teeth.I think I would want them rebonded as it has lasted me 20 years its now looking old and worn and I think it needs improving.(Its to close the gap diastema)Reading this website it advises to go to a dentist who is really artistic in this area of cosmetic dentistry.When you click on the website to see which dentist does it in my area yours doesnt come up so I am not sure if you really offer this. Also If you do I was wondering whether you use hfo enamel plus material as I am told it is really strong. The reason why I am asking lots of questions is because I am quite scared of getting it redone and I want to improve the look of my teeth.please can you let me know so I have time to cancel the appointment if I need to. Thankyou.
A. Hi
We do carry out cosmetic bonding.It is what I would class as routine dentistry. We do not use HFO. We use gradia, which I feel give better results. We carry out this type of pocedure on a daily basis.
I hope this helps.

Q. Dear Dr Butt I am a 32 year old female having been diagnosed with acute periodontal disease. I have already lost 5 teeth and Guys hospital have given a poor diagnosis. I have severe bone loss and a denture top right has been recommended for now. I was devestated when told but now having got used to the info, I realize the out come is poor. My treatment is being paid for by HC2 certificate. Can you tell me about implants and bone grafts and the cost. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I am in West London. I have everything going for me and this is a particularly grim time for me. Kind regards
A. hi,
this is quite complex as it depends on where the bone is deficient and how much is left .
the price can vary a great deal.
i can offer you a free consultation with an implantologist at one of our practices , or i can recommend avenue dental based in ealing who may be closer to you.

Q. I have a gap between two of my front teeth and i was wondering what kind of treatment i could get in order to close the gap. I was researching about tooth bonding and just wanted to ask if you thought that would be the best thing to do in order to close the gap?
A. You would need an assesment to tell the best option for you. Bonding, Veneers & Orthodontics are all possibilities to explore.
The time taken , costs, and stability of the end result are points to consider.
We offer a free initial assesment to help point you in the right direction. Call Amy for details 0121 643 0610.

Q. Dear Dr How valid the calim of this tech” CEREC 3D CAD scanner” versus lab work interm of accuracy. I know the time is 1/600HR waiting ,but is it true NO micro annulas due to accurate dimintion of the tooth. 2-Is the ceramic filling more advance relaible,durable than the composit filling if the ceramic price is 10 times more.Do you advise patients to use it? Thanks
A. Cerec is an extremely accurate technique provided the dentist produces a very smooth and accurate tooth shape, is able to accurately take an optical impression. Prof Miels recent article shows that a 19 micron fit is possible.

Q. Hi doctor solanki, i am 22 years old in college. I have gap problem with my 2 front teeth.. The gap is pretty wide about half an inch maybe a little less than.. What procedure do you think is the most inexpensive and best for me? Do you think teeth bonding will be suitable for a gap this wide?
A.
I honestly don’t think that composite build ups on your front teeth are the answer. As you are wanting to create the illusion of the gap being closed, then your front teeth will look ridiculously wide.
The same problem you would have with veneers. To close the gap, the veneers would have to be alot wider. This may mean that you have to have more teeth veneered to create the best symmetrical appearance. Hope this makes sense.
I think that orthodontics to close the gap may be your best option. There are lots of different appliances on the market that work really quickly- and some are quite discreet, so don’t dismiss the idea totally. Good luck
