Hello there Dr Moore. I hope you can help me out. I have quite pointy teeth (canines) and I sometimes I hurt myself when I accidentally bite the inside of my cheek. I’ve been researching a few treatments on-line but I’d like more information on treatments which could help me. Do you know if there any way pointy teeth can be crowned or re-shaped? How much would this cost and which treatment would be least invasive? Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing your reply.
Hello Dr. Please please help me. My teeth have been stealing my confidence since i was a kid. My 2 upper cuspid are so pointed. Like a fang. And the left cuspid was not in proper place. my 2 lower cuspid are pointed but not that much. My teeth are stained due to coffee and im so tired of using whitening products. I want to have braces so my left upper cuspid will be pushed back. But i realize it wont solve the problem with my pointed and stained teeth. It wont vanish. Still like a vampire. I read that veneers can fix this. My 4 upper teeth in front are also not in good shape. The two in front are big. The tooth beside my left cuspid on the right is so small. Im planning to have my teeth bleach before getting veneers for my upper teeth only as ive read here but my dentist suggested to have my teeth in veneers up and down front only because if the bleached teeth will get stained again it will leave the veneers teeth white only and the rest yellow. I dont want to get veneer teeth in yellow color.But its so expensive, up and down veneer front only. What should i do? With my pointed and misaligned cuspid and stained teeth. Im willing to pay but up and down veneers are so costly and im in a really tight budget. Im so desperate to fix this problem to finally gain confidence. Please please help me. Thank you so much!
Hi, my lateral incisors are very small and pointy and my canine teeth are very big. This makes me have a very weird smile. What treatments do you have to fix this? And roughly how much does it cost? I was thinking maybe composite bonding for better shape lateral incisors. I don’t know what procedure can be used to make my canines look nicer. I want to have a beautiful smile without feeling self conscious…. I don’t know what else to say
I am a 27 yr old female who has hide my “extra tooth” as long as I possible can.. I cant tell you the last time I have been able to smile showing my teeth because this one tooth is so embarrasing to me.. I have great health insurance but unfortunelty not good enough because it will not cover a cent for braces to correct this tooth. The tooth is on the top, growing out of my gum. Besides the fact of it being embarrasing it is starting to cause pain.. My dentist refuses to remove it just keeps referring me to the orthodontist but theres no sense of visiting him again as he has already quoted me a fee and its just not affordable. I am a single mom who works full time and alls I want to be able to smile showing my teeth. Can you please tell me what you suggest I do so I can finally give my confidence the boost it needs/needed? I personally wish my dentist would surgically remove the tooth and place an implant in the space where the tooth was suppost to come down? Thank you for your time and your answer in advance. I look forward to hearing from you.
Im 37yrs old. over time my two front teeth have been pushed upwards, creating a upside v, but have not overlapped. I think the cause of this was a wisdom tooth, which took many years to come through. Ive since just recently had it removed, and asked my dentist advise if my two front teeth could be straighten. He didnt think a orthodontist could help, and said having them filled or even veneers would solve the problem. i was really hoping he would of refered me to a orthodontist instead, but as he doesnt know any near where i live (my dentist is in Leeds, which im there every so often, but i live in London).. i feel my only option is to have what he has said, but im in two minds if thats what i actually want.. hope you can help.. many thanks
Two of my teeth are pointy and look like vampire fang, I hate the sight of them. What is the best way to fix them?
I have 1 very sharp canine tooth, it feels uncomfortable in my mouth and have even cut my lip and inside of my mouth with it. The appearance of it does not bother me, I just want it less sharp. What are your suggestions?
