My new crowns do not match my teeth, is there anything I can do?

Wednesday, October 26th, 2011
Q.

Hi. I had my front top teeth crowned many years ago due to them being discoloured and ‘ridged’ (lots of cough medicine as a child). They looked great, but over the years I’ve had to have some replaced. Now I seem to have a mouth-full of non-matching crowns! (In shape, size & colour). Is there anything that could be done to change the colour of a crown or add a veneer’| I also have a crown on a post which is about to break off. My NHS dentist advised to have the root removed and have a small denture – I really don’t want this. I’ve asked about an implant but he doesn’t seem keen. What can I do? Thanks.

Can I get veneers through the NHS or by interest-free installments?

Friday, February 18th, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr Verma,

I am 51 years old and have one false tooth denture, front bottom left and in the last six months gaps have started appearing between my teeth.

I desperately need to get some veneers done, unfortunately I am not working at present so need to either get these done free on the NHS or pay by interest free instalments.

Can you help please?

Kind regards

Sam

Would it be best to have a crown to repair a chipped tooth?

Thursday, January 27th, 2011
Q.

Last year I chipped my front tooth whilst drinking from a bottle. I have had the gap filled in but am not happy with the colour and finish of the filling. I have spoken to my NHS dentist about further treatment and the talk of a crown was mentioned. He explained that I may need to have some root canel done on the tooth because the chip may have damaged the nerves. I was basically wondering if to have a crown done on the private would result in a better finish i.e colour and shape, then to the NHS finished crown ? Is there a major difference if any in the procedure and materials used ?. Because the NHS dentist has done my fillings on the chip and adviced me that i may need root canel mean that I should stay with the NHS or would going private result in a better end product ?.My main aim would be to get a matching colour crown with the rest of my front teeth. Thanks for your time, hope to hear from you soon.
