I have two molars that are showing signs of fracture

Monday, November 3rd, 2008
Q.
I have two molars that are showing signs of fracture. My dentist wants to put a silver or “composite” crown on each one but the procedure of drilling away a good portion of the teeth is upsetting to me. Is there a bonding procedure that will serve the same purpose- that is, hold the tooth together to prevent it breaking completely?

crown or teeth whitening after root canal

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008
Q.
Hi, I am only 16 years old and about 6months ago i underwent a root canal treatment on one of my bottom-front teeth. I am really disappointed at the unsightly look of the tooth, as it has gradually darkened over this period. My dentist recommended me to get a crown, but only when i am around 20 years old. I am at a loss at what to do as i want to ‘fix’ the tooth immediately, but i am scared of the drawbacks of fitting a crown in now. Can you please give me any advice?

I hit my tooth while weightlifting and chipped it have I damaged my nerve

Thursday, May 29th, 2008
Q.
Hi, I hit my mouth today with a metal bar quite hard while weightlifting and my front tooth is chipped, even worse it has been moved forward slightly and is no longer flush with the rest of my teeth. I am in a state of panic as i am unsure if it can be fixed simply. I havent seen a dentist for over 10 years and im quite worried about the procedure to put it right again. Please could you shed some light on the procedure to help settle my nerves. Is it simply pushed back or is the tooth going to have to be removed. I am not in any pain and the tooth seems healthy, it needs to be corrected by moving it back 1mm or 2. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
