Q. I thought of going to have my silver fillings to be replaced with composite materials in one of my molar tooths. But some of the current silver fillings stick to my gums, how does the dentist going to remove it? Will it cause my gums to bleed during the drilling? I am concern that the harmful silver particles will get into my gums.
A. hi many thanks for your email, the silver fillings that are placed close to your gums will still be removed and can be replaced with the white filling material. the silver filling material will not harm your gums.

Q. i had acrown put on my pre molar 3 days ago it fits properly after the dentist ground the bottom to seat against the bottom tooth but it feels like it is too wide on the inside pf my mouth, it looks and feels too wide compared to the other side, can it be ground or reshaped so it feels more comfortable withoutdamaging the porcelain finish or integrity of the crown?
A. This may be possible if there is enough porcelain to be reshaped

Q. hi, my teeth are quite small for my age. i’m 16 and only noticed this 1 year ago after an orthodontist pointed it out to me. My molars are maybe 2-3mm out of my gums and my other teeth are less than an inch out of my gums. is this strange or common, furthermore, my to front teeth overlapped as i grew up. is this related?
A. Size of teeth and crowding/spacing are related. The size of your teeth oftens relates to your general body size.

Q. HELLO DR MOORE, I AM A 40 YR OLD FEMALE I DO NOT SMOKE, DONT DRINK RED WINE OR COFFE. BRUSH MT TEETH TWICE A DAY AND FLOSS BUT MY TEETH HAVE STARTED TO GO OFF COLOUR (YELLOWISH). IS THIS PURELY AN AGE THING. I AM SCARED OF BLEACHING AS I DONT WANT MY TEETH TO GET SENSITIVE. I HAVE HAD SO MANY PROBS THIS YEAR WITH MY BACK MOLAR (TOOTH WAS DYING). I VALUE YOUR THOUGHT.
A. Bleaching can cause some transient sensitivity but on the whole is a very good way to improve the colour of the teeth with a minimum of fuss and expense

Q. My daughter is 19 and has 2 pre-molar (baby teeth) still in place. There are no second teeth to replace them. Her own dentist suggests extracting these 2 teeth as she says they are growing into the gum. Do they need to be extracted or do you think they should stay. If they have to go what will she get to replace the wide gaps. thanks
A. hi many thanks for your email, the problem is if there remain in the mouth there will continue to grow into the gum and be functionally unless, the alternative is to remove the teeth and replace the gap with fixed teeth via dental implants which should hopefully last a very long time.

Q. I have recently had a crown fitted to repair a lower molar tooth. I asked for a ceramic crown. The front of the tooth looks good but the back of the tooth appears very black along the lower edge. I had the crown fitted two weeks ago. I am unhappy with the appearance of the tooth. I £400 for the crown. Is this usual? Many thanks.
A. Hi
Thanks for your message, if you are unhappy with the treatment you have received, I would always recommend that you return to the dentist who has carried out the treatment to inform them. I am sure that if you explain your concerns, the dentist will be able to either advise you of why this is and reassure you, or make arrangements for the crown to be replaced. It is possible that the crown you have had fitted may be metal based for strength. However without seeing it, it is ipossible to say for sure. I hope that this will be of some assistance to you.

Q. Hi, I’ve had a molar tooth removed recently after it fractured from eating food. I took some photos with my camera to see if it was healing well and i noticed that at the base of the cavity it looked quite dark, almost silvery like my other fillings. Is it normal to be this colour?, could the dentist have just left the lower part of my tooth etc in my jaw? Can i send the photo to get your judgement? Thanks
A. if you come to the StJohns Dental Practice in Birmingham I will look for free. Call Amy for details 01216430610 Rob

Q. Hi there i have a question for you i have a impacted wisdom tooth its my lower right side my dentist told me i could take it out whenever i want and its not a big deal, well my question is can that wisdom tooth cause my second molar to start raising up and make a couple of my bottom teeth crooked? because that is happening but like i said he said it wasnt a big deal!? can you please help me? thanks
A. Hi
It is very unlikely for the wisdom tooth to cause the crowding, but an examination would be required.
If you are getting repeated infections or it is causing damge to you adjacent tooth then it may require removal. Your dentist would discuss all your options.

Q. Hello I have had the same dentures since 1983/4. I have been thinking for some time now that i ought to have another set as i worry that if they break i would not be able to go to work also i would not know where to find a dentist that would take me on(I have not been to one for years) Apart from that i am afraid that new dentures would make me look very different
A. A denture copy tecnique would be a good way to replicate your dentures.

Q. Hi, Dr. Glaister: Dentist said I had a vertical crack in my lower left molar (tooth number 18) in the back of the tooth. It doesn’t hurt although sometimes I feel sensitivity when I chew. He said I should have a crown. I heard the cheapest crown is a resin composite. What is the life expectancy of that kind of crown and can it be done quickly in one visit? Is it different than a metal or porcelain crown in
that they don’t have to grind your teeth?
A. You have to reduce the tooth surface for every type of crown. I recommend you visit your dentit to see what he can offer you in terms of materials and costs.
Kind regards

Q. I’ve recently had a wisdom tooth and molar next to it extracted. I am eager to proceed with treatment to replace a number of crowns/veneers and would like to know how long I should wait until I can have an impression done to get this work done. The extractions were difficult and I had to take two courses of penicillin but the site appears to be healing well? Thank you
A. Difficult to generalise in this instance but I would not expect problems after a couple of weeks

Q. I was diagnosed with slight TMJ many years ago and it show up now and again with a lock jaw and difficulty when eating. I used to sleep with a guard on my upper teeth. Do you think it is worth having another guard made? Also do you think an old filling on the bottom molar teeth could be contributing to the lock jaw pain? I plan to be in London during the summer. Thank you very much
A.
Yes the filling could be contributing and i do think you should get some sort of appliance to help you. Please take a look at www.tmjpainreleif.co.uk. If you are in london then you are welcome to come and see myself for a consultation, alternatively if you let me know where you are living i can put you in contact with the nearest dentist practicing the same method.
Kind regards

Q. Hi, My 12 year old daughter is in the middle of her braces treatment. Her orthodontist noticed that she has 2 missing upper teeth (I think they are the premolars.) Now that her lower premolars are coming out, the orthodontist suggest that she has them removed. He said that number of teeth on her upper should be the same amount as her lower. I wonder if that’s true. Right now my daughter’s x-ray should that she has 2 bottom molars that have not come out yet but no sign for her other upper molars. She now has 10 teeth on the upper and 12 on her lower bridge. I’m worried that if I have the other 2 lower teeth removed she will not have enough teeth in the future! What is your opinion?
A. If she is crowded then removal of the teeth is indicated. When all the teeth come through she won’t miss the premolar teeth. Talk it through with your orthodontist before you proceed with treatment

Q. following some failed (and negligent) dental treatment i require an implant in the lower left second molar area. i’ve had some consultations with implant surgeons, some of whom have told me it’s not usually desireable to place implants in this area. i’m interested to know if you feel it is usually possible to place implants in this area? if so, how many have you personally placed? and what success rate do you have for placements in this lower second molar region? many thanks
A. we show very high success rates for implants in the lower molar region. Around 98-99% over 10 years. This is all dependent on the amount of bone tou have available so we would scan the jaws without CT scanner prior to treatement so you have a clearer idea of your long-term success.
Let me know if you would like to come to see me, my e-mail is implant@advancedentalclinic.com

Q.
I got my upper left Molar filled about two weeks ago it was a deep filling I was told almost to the nerve. Now I am having numbness on my left side tongue, all the outer parts of my cheek, and only half of my lips,and some of the outer skin surrounding my lips. This is all however on my left side only. My gum is a little swollen around the tooth but nothing very prominant. Will this go away or has there been trauma to the nerve? I have had it for about a week now. I also have Multiple Sclerosis and want to make sure it is not related to this since the pain came on a week later. Please help!! I do not have dental insurance so I don’t want waste a trip to the dentist if I don’t need to. This also has affected my taste of things.
A.
there are a few possibilities. the most frequent cause is temporary bruising around the injection site used to block lower molars. as you have ms I would check with your doctor if you have numbness that hasn’t improved 1 week after the fillings Robtennet
