Would invisalign be a good choice for me?

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010
Q.
hey man i have a question for you my front left tooth is overlaping my right tooth in a upper diagonal position it covers up to 20% of my right tooth its also on top like half of it is.( only the very last edge of it is about a half centimeter on top from my right tooth also the left tooth clicks only the edge thats on top i dont know why. My right tooth is nearly perfect it could be easily pushed more to the right about a 6-10%. I wanna know if invisalign would be my best choice or simply a working choice,

What is the best option to move or replace a tooth? Should I go for an implant or a bridge?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hello, I fell off my bike as a child when my adult teeth were very new and smacked my left front tooth – the root had not finished developing and the tooth subsequently died and discoloured. I had a root canal and a crown placed on it as an adult but I think my teeth have since moved a bit and it sticks out now at the front and has been borderline wobbly for years. I am wondering whether there is any point in getting braces (for the 3rd time! At 38!) to move a dead root or should I go for an implant or a bridge (am worried there might not be enough room for another tooth the same size as my existing front tooth). Having had all 4 wisdom teeth out in one go and two lots of braces I must admit to not being so fond of dentists so the least painful option is always going to be appreciated! I should also admit that I live on island in the Maldives so I can’t get to the dentist often…. does this rule out braces completely? Apologies for the novel, hope you can point me in the right direction! Thank you for your help,

How can I make the colour of my root canaled tooth match the rest of my remaining teeth?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, about two years ago i had a root canal treatment on my front tooth (top left), unfortunately it has taken a lot of the whiteness out of that tooth and it is clearly visible. Is there anything you could suggest to make it look the same as the tooth next to it? Thank you,

My dentist told me I cannot have an implant because I smoke. Is this true?

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
Q.
I have a front loose tooth that I think is ready for falling out (my dentist said today he cannot save it) I asked him about implants and he said he will not do it because I smoke. i asked him if I went to a cosmetic dentist and paid privately would they do it I was told no because I smoke. I am prepared to give up smoking with help from my Gp but he still said no-one will do it for me.,
