My front tooth looks longer than the rest of my teeth, will braces fix this?

Wednesday, December 5th, 2012
Q.

I´m 52. After a periodontal treatment, my gums receded and one of my front teeth looks “longer” than the rest of my teeth, and it´s crooked, so there´s a gap between this tooth and the next. My guess is that I would need braces to straighten my front teeth, then I´ll have to find a way to align my gums, or maybe a veneer? What would you suggest? I don´t smile in pictures anymore 🙁
What treatment(s) would you recommend?

What’s the best method for closing a large gap between two front teeth?

Wednesday, December 5th, 2012
Q.

Hiya Dr Moore I was wondering if you could help me with a problem? Here it is: my teeth are fairly straight but I have quite a big gap between my two front teeth which is making me very self conscious and I am wondering what procedure would be best to close this gap up I have been meaning to look into this for a while now and don’t have any ideas of what you could do, if you could let me know what would be best to do it would be great as i don’t know how to go about getting treated etc. I’m looking for something that can be done quickly as it’s really getting me down now and I’m fed of horrid remarks. Thank you very much for your time.

My dentist has created a plan to fix the teeth at the back of my mouth, what do you think of it?

Wednesday, December 5th, 2012
Q.

Hi Dr Moore..I wondered if you could help me? I want veneers for a narrow arch and dark coloured teeth at the back (due to lots of dark fillings). My dentist says he feels that whitening and then composite bonding on the back teeth will be an effective and much cheaper option that will give me the results I want as basically the front teeth are fine it’s just the back ones that you can’t see when I smile. He also says that some back teeth might need crowns at some point and this can be done easily with just the composite veneers to remove.What do you think about this? Is he right? Does it sound like a good plan?? It’s nice of him to try and save me money but i want the best results possible. Thank you for your time!

Getting veneer has made my jaw ache and caused me headaches. What should I do?

Thursday, November 29th, 2012
Q.

I had veneers placed on peg laterals. once covered in bonding it was time to replace the material. My new teeth hurt and look bad. My teeth are moving, partucularly the neighboring teeth on the left and it is ruining my orthadontic work. My jaw hurts despite my following g dentist directions to use Advil and ice. It has been six weeks from her first attempt and one week from her replacing I e veneer due to what she thought was a bad color. My dentist has done six adjustments and one replacement but I can only close my jaw comfortably laying down, not standing, talking, or eating. I have a gap now and a constant headache. What is wrong?

How would veneers affect my natural teeth?

Tuesday, November 20th, 2012
Q.

Hello,

I’m currently looking into veneers. How would this effect my natural teeth? Are they just glued on top of your natural teeth or do your teeth get filed down? Also, are they permanant and can you remove them? I would appreciate any help you can give me on this subject. Also, how much generally are they??

Thanks

How much would it cost to have my chipped front teeth treated?

Wednesday, October 31st, 2012
Q.

Hi Dr Hussein Shaffie. Not sure if you could help me answer my small question, I’ve chipped my two front teeth quite some time ago now about five years and I was wondering if they can be fixed? They haven’t botherd me until now as I haven’t been to the dentist for a while and I’m getting quite ashamed of them. Have I left it too late for them to be sorted? Or will I have to have them extracted? And please could you tell me a ball park figure I was thinking about £1000 and could you do this for me thanks doctor.

My veneers appear grey in colour when I have a photo taken, why is this?

Wednesday, October 31st, 2012
Q.

I have veneers on my four front top teeth. I originally had them just on the top two teeth (one is dead route canal filled, knocked out when i was younger on a trampoline with no padding) the other front tooth was chipped when i was younger. When i was 29 i got them redone and my top front teeth made smaller (as they were large) and i had my other two done, to make it better.
They look great to look at, but when i have a photo taken and smile with my teeth showing they seem to come out a grey/black colour – is there anything that can be done to my teeth now? Also is it possible to now wear a brace to straighten my teeth now? i was told because i’d had route canal on my top tooth i wouldnt be able to (40 next year)
Thank you

What is the best method for correcting spaces between my central incisors and canine teeth?

Wednesday, October 31st, 2012
Q.

Hello doctor, I wondered if you could help me? Firstly I don’t have my lateral incisor teeth (they never appeared) and secondly I have gaps between my central incisors and canine teeth (gaps evenly spread). I don’t want any gaps anymore I’m 39 and would like this resolved as quickly as possible as it is getting me down  – what would you say is the best method to get this resolved – veneers/bridge/crowns – and an approximate cost would be great. And how long the process would take for example would it be 4 weeks or 6 months? Thank you for your advice in advance, I just need a general idea.
