Hi. My Daughter’s Dental Intern Has Changed While She’s Having Orthodontic Correction. Could You Help?

Thursday, September 25th, 2014
Q.

Hello Mark, could you tell me what causes relapse in orthodontically aligned teeth?  How does an incorrect mid-line in the lower set affect this? Please offer your advice regarding this as my daughter is undergoing treatment in a university dental college, and the doctor has asked me to search for the answer.  My daughter has had braces treatment for the last two years. The dentist who was working on her completed the course and left the college and now another intern has taken over. Any advice you can offer us would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Could I Receive Dental Treatment From A Dental Student For Reduced Rates? I Need Dental Work Taken Care Of.

Friday, August 29th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Gambroudes, I just want to ask a quick question. I’m 19 and I need work done on my teeth. I’ve had a bridge fitted and a few teeth built up to look more natural. I was told they would only last a few years and I would now like something more permanent. I’ve heard from friends that I can get teeth done by a student dentist. I was wondering if you can recommend anything. I’m very self-conscious about the way my teeth look and would like something to be done. Thank you.

Good Day. I Would One Day Like To Become A Dentist But I Am Confused. Could I Own My Own Practice If I Specialized In A Particular Subject?

Friday, July 18th, 2014
Q.

Good day, Dr Moore. I want to become a dentist, but I am confused. Is general dentistry a speciality among the 9 specialities because I want to one day own my own private practice as a dentist? Could I own my private practice if I specialize in any of the 9 specialities like orthodontics or periodontics? I am good at chemistry and maths but not so much at biology. I know all subjects are important but which are the subjects that are really important for dentistry? If I decide to become a doctor of dental medicine, would I be able to carry out operations like cleaning and others? Thank you in advance for your reply.

Can I get free cosmetic work at dental schools?

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011
Q.

Hey Rob

I would like to know if there is any way I could have free veneers or porcelain implants across the front of my mouth (top row of teeth) as they are all badly mishapen and crooked.

I ask because after speaking to one of my friends recently she had free veneers done by student dentists who needed people to practice on, and as I have a low income, but earn just enough NOT to be eligable for any benefits I am actually worse off than most people and would never be able to afford these types of luxurys.

I am an aspiring musicain and think that improving my smile would have a positive impact on my life and career as my teeth are the only thing that hold me back from giving people a confident smile.

please let me know if there is any help I can recieve, I would really appreciatte any help you could give.

Can I get treatment at dental schools?

Tuesday, March 1st, 2011
Q.

Dear Sirs

I have been having a lot of problems with my teeth for a quite a few years now and the NHS Dentist don�t seem very helpful at all.

I would like to find out if there are any dental surgeon out there that are looking for people to help them gaining experience.

A bit about myself 30 year old female single mother and my teeth are just breaking off I have had a tooth removed and another just broke in 3 pieces I have had about 3 root canals and loads of fillings.

Went to my dentist last week because I was having pain on my tooth and I had a chipped tooth now he fixed the tooth I was having problems with but refused to wok on the tooth that had been chipped and asked me to return in 3 months and have work done on this tooth again another tooth has broken and I said you know my tooth broke he replied by saying that it will need to be removed but they cant do it until 3 months time so I am left with one broken tooth and another tooth which has been broken and not much of it left which is causing me pain now and I don�t think I can wait 3 months to have this problem dealt with.

I have very difficulties in eating as both sides of my teeth are very sensitive and it hurts quite often when eating even if it�s an apple.

Please can you help me if there are any dentist schools I could join as I can not afford to pay private dental care

Many thanks for your time in reading this.

I am a medical student, can I come and observe you?

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr Verma,

I am a 2nd year dental student at Barts and The London dental school. My question isn’t about a dental problem but there is a much more valuable way in which you can help me.

I was wondering whether it would be possible to observe you at the surgery some time. I am fascinated by the work that cosmetic dentists do, and we have started to restore teeth at dental school which is by far my favourite module.

I have contacted every dentist in the yellow pages and have been turned down. I would tremendously appreciate this opportunity even if it is for 1 hour. I anticipate your response.

Kind regards,

A.
