Do You Know How I Would Go About Contacting My Nearest Dental School. I Have A Lot Of Broken Teeth.

Wednesday, July 16th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Moore I can’t afford treatment at the moment and I have broken teeth which need removing. I also need fillings and think I have a abscess. I am missing front teeth that I would like replaced so I can at least talk again never mind smile. I was wondering if you could tell me how I find my nearest dental school and also how I could contact them. Also if all this work could be carried out by students and how much it’s likely to cost. Thanks.

Could I Have A Regular NHS Dentist For My General Check-Ups And Go Private For Veneers?

Friday, July 11th, 2014
Q.

Hi there – I’m not currently a private or registered NHS patient. I’m looking to have my top front teeth either straightened or taken out and veneers put in. I also need a filling or two. My question is, is it best to register somewhere else as an NHS patient regarding fillings & then have the veneers done separately to save on cost? On the top front teeth I have a front one and an incisor which cross over slightly and the front tooth is shortened and chipped. Thanks.

I Want Natural Looking Cosmetic Treatment. Do You Know How I Can Achieve This?

Thursday, June 26th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Moore. I recently had a faulty dental procedure on my upper anterior teeth and I am extremely anxious and disappointed with the outcome. To explain what happened:
I had an extremely small cavity between my front upper anterior teeth whose fillings have been changed over the last couple of years because of staining. Approximately five months ago, I asked the dentist to redo that filling but she couldn’t acquire the right shade after three attempts. I was travelling for work the next day and I visited another dentist that was referred to me by a friend. This dentist literally sawed deep into my teeth, and after creating a deeper cavity, filled it and my teeth began to look bigger. So I went back to my original dentist and she removed the excess filling. While performing this procedure she chipped off a portion of my teeth.

I finally went to a cosmetic dentist that then refilled and bonded the chip but my teeth look big and bulky and artificial which has left me depressed and extremely sad. I had perfectly normal and natural teeth but this is the outcome. I would like to find out if you can help me achieve my goals at a reasonable price? How do I get this problem fixed before another dentist ruins my teeth. I don’t like the look of artificial teeth and the shape of my teeth. Please help.

Hello Dr. Moore. My teeth are ridiculously sensitive, I have tried lots of different toothpastes to try and reduce their sensitivity but nothing will offer me relief.

I Snapped A Tooth Playing Rugby. I’m Worried The Filling Supporting My Broken Tooth Will Break As I Wear Braces. Could This Happen?

Friday, January 31st, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Hughes, about 1 year ago half of my tooth snapped whilst playing rugby so half of my tooth is made out of filling. Will my braces snap the filling off? I am worried, I have had braces for 1 year already but I fear it will snap off. I hate tooth ache, half the tooth is still there and the brace is on both so not all the pressure is on the filling but I’d just like to know if there’s a chance the filling could snap off during my braces treatment. I hope you can help me to put my mind at rest over this. Thank you.

Can You Tell Me Who In London Has The Most Expertise Using Cerec? I Have A Tooth That Requires A Crown But Would Prefer Cerec.

Friday, January 17th, 2014
Q.

Hi Mark. Can you tell me who in London has the most expertise in Cerec fillings? I have heard mixed reports on how
successful it is as a treatment. I have heard the life of such a treatment is not great and that the finish can be imperfect. I have a tooth which requires a crown but would prefer a Cerec filling if it was comparable. I need a dentist with plenty of experience with the product. I live in London and would prefer to be seen there if possible. Many thanks, I hope you can help me with this.

I’ve Been Wondering What The Best Way Is To Fix The Gaps Between My Front Teeth?

Monday, November 18th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Shaffie. I’m 19 years old and I have two big front teeth with a gap between them and I’ve been wondering what the best way to fix them? I want to make them smaller and close the gap because it’s really irritating me, especially when I smile or laugh. My other problem is that I have dental caries, which used to be one tooth but now I have three teeth with large holes in them. I also have holes between my teeth and I’m asking if I want to do a filling. How does the dentist reach the places between the teeth? Hope to hear from you and receive your advice.

I Recently Took My Braces Off And Some Glue I Scraped Off Damaged My Tooth. What Should I Do To Resolve This?

Tuesday, October 15th, 2013
Q.

Hello, I had braces and took them off myself and on my front tooth some of the glue did not come off so it scraped it off and it has took a small part out in the middle of my tooth. The small dip after every meal or drink goes yellow, so how can I get around this problem? (I brush twice daily, once in the morning and once at night before bed) any help would be fantastic I’ve started brushing even more recently to try get rid of the problem but nothing seems to work and obviously is knocking on my confidence a bit. Thank you for any advice you can offer.
