Is There Any Temporary Filler Treatment I Can Administer at Home?

Thursday, September 4th, 2014
Q.

Good morning Dr Hughes. I am having my bottom four front teeth pulled in five weeks’ time, and at a later date I will be having them replaced by prostheses. In the meantime, there will be a pretty obvious gap there, and  I would prefer it to be temporarily disguised. Is there any material that could be put in the gap until my new teeth are ready, and would it be possible for me to do this myself at home? I cannot afford any appointments for temporary filler as the treatment I’m already having has cost quite a lot, but I will be going a month or two without these teeth. Is there any temporary material I can put in this space so I don’t look so toothless for a few months? Thanks you.

Would composite bonding work to cover the gaps in my front teeth?

Q.

For a few years now I have had some issues with the look of my teeth due to gaps in the front four. I’m a student so money is pretty hard to come by at the moment except from those lovely months where I get my student loan. I have been looking at veneers and also composite bonding. My main question is, would composite bonding be a reasonable solution to this problem until I can afford veneers and if so how much would this approximately cost for the first four teeth. The gaps are not too bad but it would just be nice to have teeth that line up nicely together and make my mouth look a little fuller.
Thank you
