My doctor has suggest two option to create my perfect smile, a brace or root canal surgery. Which is the better option?

Thursday, April 7th, 2011
Q.

Hi
I have been having consultations with a dentits. He was going to fit several crowns and veneers with a bridge to create a perfect smile. However he has said today after taking molds that one of my teeth is too crooked and that really I need braces onit. I cant afford this and it would take years. He said the only alternative was to do a root canal kill off the tooth and put a porcelain veneer on top, he said there were risks and it was un ethical, but as I still seemed interested he would do it for me. To me any type of purely cosmetric dentistry is invasive and could be seen as unethical. Do you think it is ok to carry on with this? inorder to achieve what I set out to do or is it too much of a risk? Many thanks

My damaged two front teeth have been fixed but are discoloured, what can I do?

Monday, April 4th, 2011
Q.

When I was younger I fell of a swing and damaged my 2 front teeth. My right tooth is half real and half fake andis stained along the crack between the real and fake bit. My left tooth died so I had a route canal (i think) and had it covered (my dentist recently said this was a venner?) but my tooth still looks very grey through the venner and my teeth don’t match. I really don’t like my smile anymore and I’m getting married soon. What would you suggest needs to be done and is there anyway it won’t cost tons of money? I feel the dentists should have done a better job when I was younger. Thank you!

My root canal treatment has been suspended as I am pregnant, but it really hurts, is this normal?

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011
Q.

Hi, I am in the middle of having root canal treatment. I am 28 weeks pregnant. The treatment was needed as it was badly inflamed. The nerve was taken out and 6 weeks later it has been cleaned and I have had antibiotics. My dentist says we will finish it when I have had baby as I can have xrays. However I am still having pain. It is not sore to touch, but I get twinges of fairly low pain all the way to a very strong pang of pain in it which radiates slightly up my jaw. Should I go back or is this normal? It is a back lower molar. Many thanks
