Q. my two front teeth sick way out what could be done to fix them other than braces
A. hi many thanks for your email, the other option would be to use veneers/crowns to bring them back in the smile. however the teeth may require root canal treatment. there is a case on my website under goofy teeth which give you an idea of the type of treatment that can be achieved.
hope this is helpful.

Q. Hello, I have a front tooth that is rotting, it has turned black and does not look nice, I know I need the dentist but I have not had any good experiences with the dentist hence why I’ve put it off for so long, I know I have to go sooner rather than later but I’m worried about what they will do with the tooth in question, will they take it out or can they repair it?
A.
You need the check up before you can get down to details. The good thing is that you dont have to have anything done at the first visit , just decide on some likely options.

Q. i want to remove all of my teeth. i dont want bs i just want it done. how much will such an operation cost me?
A. this might sound like BS but it all depends on the number of teeth that need removing and what is put in their place. I would budget from around £50 per tooth.

Q. Hello, I am living in india and had a root canal done over here. I had slight fever and glands swelling for about a month untill we discover that is is not flu or otitis but my right mollar. I didnt know but the dentist i have been to seemed a bit low on hygyenic rules as I could see. I am now expereincing severe pain and I feel some heaviness on my whole right face, I am taking Novaclox since yersterday and really I am very worried, I am afraid he did something which might cause me septicemia. I am going to see another dentist on minday. Thanks for answering.
A. I guess the tooth is still infected and if necessary you may need it removing if your new dentsit confirms this as the problem

Q. I had veneers fitted on 6 of my front teeth at the top and they are all beginning to come loose as apparently the teeth under them are beginning to rot (i only had them done 3 years ago). I have had to have one of these teeth removed completely (one right at the front) and am now having to wear a denture plate thing which keeps falling out when i speak and i cant eat with it in. I have not been able to leave the house or see anyone because i am so depressed and my gp has put me on anti depressants (not just because of the tooth – have lost loads of family recently amongst other issues and losing my tooth was the straw that knackered the camels back) . in circumstances like this where patients are upset about the way they look because of thier breast size the nhs sometimes do breast implants – is there any way of getting a tooth implant done on the nhs as i am a single parent and was made redundant a while ago and can’t go back to work as I have just been diagnosed with ME so i just cant afford much – is there anywhere that could help? besides – arent teeth cheaper than boobs?
A. I like your reasoning but unfortunatley I’ve never heard of treatment being done because of these problems.
You could try a teaching hospital as they can sometimes provide subsidised treatments.

Q. My husband’s teeth are falling out, he has gum disease and regularly visits the dentist who more or less says that nothing can be done. His previous dentist suggested a mouthwash, which has made no difference. He cleans his teeth three times a day, uses floss and also the little interdent brushes. The dentist has also said that he will not be able to wear dentures as his gums are disappearing also. The latest tooth to fall out is near the front and now one front tooth is loose too. Surely something can be done to save his remaining teeth, could he ask for a referral to a hospital specialist? What can be done if he is unable to wear dentures? We desperately need some advice.
A. It does sound like it might be worth asking for a referral to a Periodontist (gum Specialist) if the teeth are worth saving. Wearing dentures can be very difficult but if he does need them you could also consider using dental implants to support either fixed teeth or to help dentures stay in the mouth more securely.
If you are in my area I would be very happy to take a look to give you a 2nd opinion if required. Regards Andrew

Q. hi i wanted to know if you can have all your teeth both top and bottom in inplants and what is a ruff guide to the cost to all my teeth as inplants thanks
A. Yes you can and , depending on the type of end result required cost can vary drammatically costing. In my practice an overdenture attached to 4 implants costs in the region of £8000.00 where as 8 implants to fix a permanent bridge costs in the region of £20000.00. This is for one jaw

Q. I had a root canal about 4 years ago. Starting about 6 months ago I couldn’t eat on that side of my mouth due to pain when biting down. I also have a small knot next to the tooth. In the past two weeks there is a very noxious odor coming from the tooth. Is this caused by an infection or something else? I’m just a little unsure where to go from here.
A. It maybe that the root canal is failing. If that is the case your dentist will need to find the reason and then decide if the problem can be succesfully treated and then the tooth restored. Extraction, retreatment endodontics ( maybe referral to specialist ) replacement of the tooth with a bridge, denture or implant might be options. StJohns Birmingham offers a free initial assesment is available to discus individual cases, call Amy 01216430610 for details.

Q. I had 2 crowns at the back upper side replaced and one new one (so they are 3 in a row) and root canal prior to this.. I also had root canal on the other side of my back upper side and these teeth were then filled (2 of them). that was about a month ago and when I bite both sides of these teeth are in such pain that I avoid chewing at all! I Also the teeth that have had root canal are sensitive to cold…I thought if your teeth are dead you can’t feel anything??
A. Teeth that have had their nerves removed have no hot or cold sensations. You still can have pain on biting. If you still have cold sensitivity wither there is an extra canal that has not been cleaned or your sensitivity is coming from adjacent teeth

Q. Hi Dr Caplan. I’ve just had my braces put in. Three days after having them put in when my teeth were stull tender, sore and not as stable, I fell and hit one of my front tooth on the ground, which resulted in some bleeding seeping out from that gum line. Now four months after, that tooth now clicks when I push it with my tongue, and feels ‘wobbly’ to a degree. It will become stiff again like before, or will I need a procedure to strengthen its stability? Thanks
A. You may have fractured the root of the tooth and unfortunately it may need to be removed. Please see you dentist for an Xray and vitatlity tests to assess this

Q. I have a fear of dentists and have avoided going for years, alot of my teeth have now broken off or rotted down causing extreme pain, one of my teeth at the back has completely snapped off leaving the root in and now my gum is starting to close around it i think it may be infected or maybe an abcess as my face has got swollen and i cant even bite anymore. I know i should be going to the dentist but im so scared and embarrassed that i’ve let it get so bad, i cant sleep cant eat and now i’ve started burning up really bad so im really scared, i cant even tell my partner cos im so ashamed of my teeth Please can you give me advice on what i can do before this gets any worse, Thank You
A.
You are not alone with being scared in coming to the dentist. Having pain is not a good sign and its time to see a dental professional.
Please rememeber that all dental practitioners are are professionals and would really like to help you get back on the right track.
The first step is to find someone you feel comfortable with, speak to friends or work colleagues and see if they can recommend someone, seach on the internet to view some of the clinics that appeal to you. Call a couple of those practices and I am sure you will find that they will be very respectful and very happy to help you.
If you are scared there are options to make your treatment as comfortable as possible such a sedation – which will make you very relaxed and not remember any of the treatment.
My advice is go as soon as you can so it doesnt get worse and there is always a solution. Be brave and you will soon have that great smile you dream about – get that confidence back.

Q. My dentist(locum)has suggested root canal treatment and a crown. I have a temporary filling. As a pensioner I am worried about the cost, but would prefer not to lose the tooth. Would it be possible just to have the tooth filled?
A. I guess the root canal treatment is needed to sort out either an infected root or a deep cavity so this will be needed whatever you put on top. You could possibly go with a build up filling in the short term on top but ultimately a crown will protect the tooth and prevent fracture in the future.

Q. I have a few rotten teeth that need removing as very painfull i also have poor oral health due to a massive fear of dentists i have even thought about being knocked out having them all taken out then false teeth so i dont keep having all this pain and worry however this cost is not an option for me. I would really like some help to get my oral health back and teeth sorted and say goodbye to the pain last night i only had 2 hours sleep due to the pain. The other problem i have is i am ellergic to the injections and the last time i had a tooth removed it was at birmingham dental hospital under sedation this put with my very bad fear of dentists is why my oral health is so bad and i am ashamed of it to be honest but worried about doing anything about it. I have also had a very unsympathetic dentist years ago which made me worse and not had a dentist since. Please can you give me some advice and point me in the direction of help as i worried in pain and anxious. regards
A.
It is not clear how you found your experience at BDH, Contact them direct as you will already have a hospital number and be in their “system”. They are caring and are the lowest cost or free if you are on a budget.
to help overall you might try hypnotherapy to work on your anxiety before going for an appointment. There are quite a few registered therapists in the area.

Q. hello. i have 2 upper teeth that are rotten to the gumline. although they do hurt, i am scared of what can happen. will i die from this condition??
A. Infections can cause serious pain are very rarely life threatening, the secret is to not wait until you get severe pain, go see a dentist you may have to have the teeth removed but at least that will get rid of the infection you can then look at cosmetic options to improve your smile.
