My crown is causing my gums to look obviously red, what is causing this?

Friday, April 9th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I had a crown fitted onto my front tooth a year ago to replace a vaneer that broke off. Where the crown touches the gum it is slightly red and when I smile you can see the redness on my gum, making me smile less. My dentist at first said I could be a little sensitive to the crown and to brush it better. This has not changed it and it still looks slightly red. It has never caused my any pain, just looks quite obvious……what could be causeing this. Many thanks,
A.

Is there any treatment available for my gum recession?

Monday, March 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hi Dr Caplan, My gumline has been receding gradually for the past 5 years and I have been told by my dental hygienist that it is due to overbrushing (not due to gum disease). My gum recession is quite mild and does not pose any problems, but I do not like how it looks. Is there any natural remedy for my gums to grow back, e.g. any gels I can apply to my gums to stimulate regrowth? Thank you! Cheers, Amanda,
A.

What can be done for gums that are soft and sometimes bleed?

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
I have sensitive teeth and problem gums which are soft and sometimes bleed. Over the years I have regular visits to my dentist and use toothpastes and mouthwashes which help somewhat. I have read Vitamin E oil rubbed on the gums and also used as a mouthwash can help. Do you think it could and if not what would you suggest I do to try and harden my gums more.,

Will root canal treatment lessen pain caused by teeth with no enamel?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
My 14 year daughter unfortunately had her four back teeth come through with no enamal on them, about 3 months ago we had to have a root canal treatment on one of them. She is now in pain again and the dentist has recommended that they try root canal treatment again, the tooth is crumbling away, and she is on anti biotics to try and clear the infection she also has a phobia with needles and dentists! Is another root canal treatment likely to work for her, or would it be best to extract the tooth? This is not an option that she wants as she does not want a gap in her teeth, but the pain she went through last time for it not to work, how many times will they try and do root canal before they say to extract it. Many thanks,
A.

Should i opt for a bridge or implants?

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010
Q.
I have a temporary bridge from 7-10 and had bone graft 7 months ago in 8 & 9 done by an Oral Surgeon in preparation for implant placement. I have lost teeth 8 & 9 a long time ago and had a lot of gum recession. My prosthodontist has referred me to a periodontist because my gums on tooth # 7 has been really red the past few months. The periodontist said I need crown lengthening. She doesn’t recommend placing two implants in teeth 8 & 9 due to esthetic reasons. I am confused because my Oral Surgeon wanted to place implants. Should I just have the bridge done at this point? Thanks.,
A.
