How Can I Increase The Size Of My Teeth After My Braces Are Removed?

Tuesday, April 16th, 2013
Q.

Hello, I was just wondering what options I have.
I currently have braces that have brought my teeth forward as they tilting into my mouth, but they will be coming off very soon.
I also have two peg teeth on either side of my front teeth which are going to be built up.
Unfortunately I don’t think I will be satisfied with my teeth after this as they are very small. What are my options for increasing the size of my front teeth?
Also are there any procedures that don’t require drilling the existing teeth?
Thank you very much for your time.

A.
Options include bonding, compo… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I Am A Nervous Patient And Have Severe Gum Disease, Can You Help Me?

Tuesday, April 16th, 2013
Q.

Hi I suffer with severe gum disease and I have lost almost all my gum surrounding my 2 bottom teeth. I am also a very nervous patient and havent been to my dentist for 2 yrs as he doesnt understand. He has also said nothing can be done about my gums but ive heard of a procedure where u remove good gum and put it on the affected area. Ive been looking but cannot find a dentist where I live that deals with peridontal disease. Im really desperate as I dont want my teeth to fall out. When ive been to the dentist in the past ive been made to feel like I dont brush my teeth but they r brushed twice sometimes 3 times a day, I did used to smoke. Ive been suffering with this since I was 15 and im now 30.
I would b really grateful for some advice and guidance.
Thanks.

i’m 17 and i have multiple gaps in my teeth is there anything you would recommend?

Tuesday, September 6th, 2011
Q.

Hi i’m 17 and i have multiple gaps in my teeth that are right next to each other my teeth are straight and i have a small overbite(which isn’t a problem), there are 11 gaps in my teeth, 5 in the top teeth and 6 in the bottom, the 4 in the top are the ones I am more worried about. the ones in the top range from 1mm to 3.5mm and they are all next to each other and the bottom gaps are smaller except for a 2.5mm gap between the premolar and canine tooth. My orthodontist didn’t recommend braces because he said there was a high chance of gaps coming straight back and i can’t afford to spend a lot of money on something that isn’t right for me. Is there anything you would recommend i do or look into? I’ve heard of so many things like veneers of all different kinds, invisalign, orthordill and other teeth bands, also i know that some of these treatments are expensive is there anyway i could reduce the cost? i know that it isn’t very likely but, I’ve been wanting to do something about my teeth since i was 14 and i knew the gaps weren’t going away. The main reason i want to do this now is because i’m going to university next year and i would really love to have a more confident smile when meeting new people and making new friends, i dont want to labeled the silent or shy girl because I keep my mouth shut because I’m not shy but my teeth hold me back and have been for several years. Any advice will be REALLY appreciated.

I lost my front two teeth, I think I need cosmetic work, what can i do?

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011
Q.

Firstly.. I am terrified of dentists, for a number of reasons.
Most recently I fell out of a 15ft window, landed on my face and now both front teeth are missing.
I stopped eating sweets altogether and anything else I felt could do more harm to my teeth.
Also I had a piercing in my lower lip which has made my gums recede very badly.
As you can imagine all this has put a lot of fear into me… I also suffer quite badly from dreams where all my teeth fall out.
I’m 30 years old and really do not want to put it off any longer.
The problem I have is that the plate with my now 2 front teeth on it seems to do more damage than good.
I desperately want to be able to smile but have got so used to keeping my mouth closed I never do any more.
I have extra money each month as I work 2 jobs, one of them I am in the public eye as a Dj and want to able to look my best.
I am torn as what to do.
In my opinion I need the works, gum work and veneers.
What is the best way to get this sorted. I have extra money but I’m not rich by any means.
Can you help?

What procedure would be best for straightening and whitening my teeth, and how much would it cost?

Monday, January 10th, 2011
Q.

I am not very familiar with all procedures and prices avaliable, but I have few issues about my teeth. I would need to streight 3 of them, maybe straight the crowns of 4 of them and also I would like them to be whitened (they not in a bad condition). I am 18 years old. What would be the best procedure for me n maybe you could give me an average price I could expect??? Thank you 🙂
