Q. Hi, i had a brace when i was about 13 for 10 months and had to have some teeth removed to make space for them to straighten out, well i am now 20 and during the last couple of years i have started to grind my teeth, they have become sensitive and look awful my two front teeth are the worse one is shorther then the other and 3 of my bottom front teeth have been ground down aswell so all my back teeth are fine but when i bite my front teeth dont meet, what is the best way to sort this and least expensive? Thankyou so much
A. hi many thanks for your email, the best least expensive way to sort this out is rebuild the front teeth using white filling material and then invest in a nightguard so if you do grind your teeth at night it will be the nightguard which is ground away and not your teeth.
hope this is helpful.

Q. Five yrs ago I had gum grafts done around each tooth on my bottom row of teeth. I now have braces but only partial on my top row of teeth. I desperately want braces to straighten my bottom teeth but I was told it may ruin the grafts I had done. Can you explain why and it this information is accurate?
A. The movement of the teeth with braces could cause unstable gums to shrink back. It doesn’t always occur but you are more at risk. You need to decide whether to risk the gum shrinking, and whether the cosmetic improvement is worth this risk. Regards Andrew

Q. i am 16, i have oesteoporsis and my bottom jaw is further forward than the top. my dentist had suggested breaking my jaw but with my oesteoporosis they think it would cause a lot of comlications so instead they are offering me fixed braces for two years and want me to write a letter telling them if i want this or not, i have read about the risk of pain and tooth decay if my teeth arent kept clean but i still would like normal teeth. I dont know how much fixed braces would improve my bite. And im not sure if it is worth the trouble because most people think i should just be happy with my teeth how they are and get used to it but what if im missing an oppertunity to have a good smile like other people.
A. Only you can decide whether the brace is worth doing from a cosmetic point of view but if it does improve your bite considerably then generally I would advise you to proceed with treatment

Q. hi. i am now 18 and have had a brace a number of years ago but now i have one tooth which has moved back into its original place. what procedures can i have done to get this corrected and can it be done by the nhs or will it have to be done by my dentist and if so what costs wouold i be looking at.
A. It is unlikely you will get this treatment on the NHS. You could ask your dentist for a quick aligner treatment such as the inman aligner. This works well for mild crowding.

Q. Hi, its been a year sicen i hve had my braces come off and straight after my braces i wore the retainers, and i still wear them at times, but i feel as though one of my tooth has moved slightly forward, what shall i do i dont feel comfortable because its made the other tooth back? What can be done?
A.
Try to wear your retainers again – they may mover the teeth bsack into place if they have not moved too much. Once back in their correct position at nighttime for 6 to 18 months ( I somettimes advise a life time of retainers at night if there is a strong likelyhood of relapse)

Q. I have a big gap between my 2 front teeth that i would like corrected but my teeth are loose due to gum disase. What would be the best solution?
A. Treat the gum disease first then assess the size and decide whther your teeth are suitable for simple cosmetic bonding or porcelain veneers. Unfortunatley if the gum diseae is advanced you may need to consider removal and replacement of the teeth or moving the teeth with a brace and holding them in a new position

Q. Hi I am 22 years old and am considering firstly having a mandibular osteotomy and brace treatment. Due to my age I am reluctant to have traintracks again (I have already had traintrack treatment when I was 15, which was unsuccessful). I have been to see an NHS surgeon and orthadontist about this, and they have recommended that I have the treatment. Firstly I would like to ask if its possible to have either Invisalign braces or the braces that go behind your teeth under NHS, or whether they will pay partly towards this? Due to my age traintracks are not an option for me. Also I would like to ask whether it is possible to have the invisalign braces done privately, but the surgery done on the NHS, since I cannot afford the expense? Thank you.
A. hi
you are having quite a complex treatment , post osteotomy they will wire your jaw and you will have to have conventional braces for this and the nhs will not cover invisalign or any private treatment.
once they have completed their work and the jaw has set you can then consider invisalign.

Q. Hi I was hoping you could give me an idea of what the best way of sorting out my smile would be and maybe a rough idea of how much it would cost. When i was younger my third tooth i think its called the canine grew twisted and closer to the front than it should have because of this my second tooth never grew so now i have one tooth in the middle of where two teeth should be with gaps on both sides. i don’t mind if my rogue tooth needed to be removed for the best results. But i would like to be able to smile properly as quickly and cheaply as possible as it is really beginning to get me down. Thank you in advance for your help & advice I look forward to hearing from you.
A.
Check out some dentists in your area that offer a free initial consultation, You should be able to get some rough prices for veneers, bridges, cosmetic bonding, or orthodontics (braces ) then balance the cost with the speed and the “smile” result.
Cheap & fast but ? result in your case would be cosmetic bonding.

Q. hi am a student and i have a overlapping front tooth and am not to fond of getting braces as a going into modeling and was wondering what options i would have and the cost. thanks
A. Overlapping front teethcan often be treated by different types of invisible braces. These are clear plastic and allow for most patients to carry on their lives as normal after a short period of adaptation. IN my practice these braces start from £1600 per jaw. Another option that is immediate would be to veneer your teeth. This does require some removal of tooth surface but the teeth can be straightened within 2 to 3 weeks. Veneers start form £645 per tooth

Q. Will contracting osteomylitis aged 8 years increase my chances of bone disease re occurring
A. Dear M,
This is difficult question and one that I have to admit I do not know the answer to. If the osteomylitis left less bone in the area it occurred in your mouth then if you did get gum disease in that area the effect of bone loss from the gum disease would be more profound.
Sorry I cannot be of more help.
