Q. Hi, It was a few years ago i noticed black dots on my teeth, i’ve since been to the dentist every 6 months apart from in the last year. She has always said there is nothing to worry about, but now i havent been to see the dentist in a while i have noticed they are gradually getting larger and on one of my teeth there is a second smaller black dot(the black dots are situated on the back two teeth on the bottom on either side, 4 in total)I have a phobia of any dental surgery. I had 2 teeth removed when i was 8/9yo under gas because of it and have was wondering is this decay also if it is are there any treatment which i would be put tosleep for the procedure?
A. It is very likely that the black dot is just stain in the pits an fissures of the teeth. Ask your dentist to x-ray them that way you will be able to tell if the dots are decay or just stain. You could have them filled if needed with sedation although the fillings will probably be very small.

Q. Hi i am wanting to ask my four front teeth seem to be eroding quite quickly i have suffered acid reflux but am now on medication and this seems to have calmed down do you think this is because of reflux that my teeth have gone like this? and if so is there any way to sort this out.Kind regards.
A. Reflux causes strong acids to break the teeth down you could have tooth coloured material or porcelain placed over the teeth to strengthen and protect them.

Q. I am a UNITED STATES 43 male, and just had checkup. I have reflux and have ground teeth into the denton. Kanines are level w/others. molars have very wide fillings. backs of front teeth have been acid washed to denton, i guess. told i need 14 crowns immediately. front upper 6 +canines+back molars. $12K. is there some insurance I can buy to offset this? or is it too late, since I already saw the DR. I am scheduled for this friday. Please respond ASAP. URGENT to know. what is your advice? do you think this is urgent/necessary??
A. If teeth have severe acid erosion the options are onlays or crowns depending on how much tooth is present. I am a British dentist and do not have knowledge of your insurance schemes

Q. Hi. I had SEVERAL fillings done about 1.5 months ago, and on occasion, those teeth will hurt, especially when I chew gum. It seems that the sensitivity to hot and cold has diminished considerably since I had the fillings done, but most times when I chew gum, those teeth hurt. The fillings are white, not silver. Is this normal?
A. hi
this problem can occur several factors play a part the depth of the filling/closeness to the nerve.
the technique by which it was placed .
as symptoms are improving over time -give it a bit longer or contact your dentist to check everything is ok as it may settle

Q. Hi, I have a filling on either side of my top set of teeth and I feel that they were not done very well. They really stand out against the rest. I would love them to be replaced to look white rather than the grey/black they are at the moment. I wondered what my best course of action might be and whether you could advise me further?
A. Many thanks for your email, nowadays it is a very common treatment to have silver(amalgam) fillings replaced with white fillings. my advice is to seek out a cosmetic dentist in your local area and arrange for a consultation where they will then quote for the work, usually per white filling the cost can be from £100 – £250. white fillings are technique sensitive so make sure the dentist uses rubber dam and has a reasonable amount of experience doing the procedure. if all is carried out to a good standard expect the fillings to last 7-10 years.

Q. Hello, I had my first crown installed over a tooth that had broken. I was not in pain, it was a tooth that had been filled years ago. The tooth is a bottom, left, two teeth back from the canine. In any event, I have developed a slight lisp since the installation and it appears that my upper teeth are tilted (with the right side being lower). I went back to the dentist, he said he sees nothing wrong but that he would redo the crown if I wanted. He also offered the explanation of perhaps that perhaps air is now channeling differently through my mouth due to the width of the crown being less??? Is thsi a common occurence?
A. not really, but as it is being redone I wouldn’t worry.

Q. Dr. Moore, A year ago, I had a composite filling put into my front tooth. A few days ago, the bottom part of the tooth broke off in two places and the composite filling from the front remaining part to the top has come out completely; leaving only a thin part of my real tooth behind. Is this tooth salvagable for a crown?
A. Without seeing you I can’t tell for sure but it is usual for a there to be still enough tooth for a crown even after a breakage.

Q. I chipped both my front teeth in an accident when i was 11. Iam now 31, one of the teeth is badly discoloured it has a veneer on it but you can still see its dark, what would you recommend?
A. Probably root treatment of the dark tooth followed by internal bleaching. Veneers may be required later but even if they are the colour matching will be easier

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 i have recently missed an appointment at my nhs dentist due to illness. as this was the second appointment i missed i have been removed from the practise. at my previous visit i had a filling in my front tooth, which was only slightly discoloured and was not painful at all. since havin this done my tooth is extemely sensitive and it hurts when i touch where the filling is. Shall i see if the same dentist can fix it for me at the practise where i cant go or shall i just find another nhs dentist. also i was wondering the best whitening process would be either professionally or from over the counter, my teeth are naturally yellow n this really gets me down. i wont even have my picture taken. can this be done on the nhs???
A. Firstly, whitening will not bee done on the NHS. It is a cosmetic treatment, and the NHS will see it as being unneccessary treatment. Does this make sense?
And secondly, if you have been taken off the books at your previous dentist for failing to attend an appointment, then you need to ideally find another prcatice. From the sounds of it, the tooth may just be hypersenstive orif it is tender to touch, it may well need further treatment such as root canal treatment. I would advise that see a cosmetic dentist for the best aesthetic results on your tooth- otherwise your local dental hospital may be an option?

Q. I am 70 years old,am i too old to have botox or fillers?A. I don’t think you ever too old.
A. combination of botox and fillers is the best. Dentists that have training can carry out these procedures but if I was you I would go to someone that does these procedures all the time. They will be used to using the different types of products and choose the ones that are best for your face. Registered grade nurses, doctors and dermatologists are able to carry out these procedures.
