What treatment can you recommend for my discoloured teeth?

Monday, January 9th, 2012
Q.

Hello,

When I was younger I had pretty bad mottling on my teeth, which I think was from flurosis.

When I reached the age of 13 I had some treatment on my teeth, which really polished them up and gave back my confidence. I think they bleached them, although I can’t remember for sure.

Now at the age of 22, I’ve found 5 of my top teeth have become discoloured and yellow tinged. In addition in between my front tooth and canine, there appears to be a thin dark mark lining the edge of my tooth. My teeth became like this a few years ago. Naturally, its knocked my confidence, and I would like to get it sorted.

I was wondering if there was any treatment avaliable, to whiten my teeth up a bit, and if you could give any roundabout figure of the cost.

Kind regards, 

A.

What’s the best option for tooth whitening, who do I go to and how do I know I should?

Thursday, September 15th, 2011
Q.

Dear Mark,

I am looking into getting my teeth whitened and wondered what you would recommend as the best option in your opinion – best results and least painful?

I am 30 years old and my teeth are a bit stained, so would like them nice and white again.

Also when I am looking into a dentist, should they be a cosmetic dentist to do this type of treatment? And how do I check if they are a cosmetic dentist as opposed to a normal dentist?

Thank you very much,

A.

I think I may need veneers in the future, how natural looking are they?

Thursday, August 18th, 2011
Q.

Hi,

I’m 16 years of age and i neglected my teeth for just over 2 years and i had an x-ray and my dentist said 10 teeth could go wrong in the future so i took control and brushed my teeth 3 times a day and found out what my teeth really looked like, lines down the middle (probably because of the excesive amount of coke and pepsi i consumed) now i brush 3 times with durapat 5000 and rinse once a day with fluorigard, i’m doing my best but i think im going to need veneers/crowns in the future, i would just like some advice on am i doing all i can do in the time being, and are crownss/veneers natural enough so people couldn’t fool them for real teeth?

many thanks

Can I have Lumineers fitted in time for my wedding?

Monday, July 11th, 2011
Q.

Hi There,
Im getting married in October abroad and am looking into lumineers as im a little worried about the shaving to my teeth to get it prepared. I was told by a dentist I visited that lumineers wouldnt work on the top as my teeth are big enough for the size of my mouth so would need to do a bit of teeth shaving. I am looking to have something done and I dont think tooth whitening would work as I have stained teeth not through smoking as I dont smoke ive just always had from childhood now into adulthood. I would like a beautiful smile for my wedding can you tell me how long it would take to have veneers/lumineers from first consultation how many weeks and how many times would I need to visit? Please could you let me know opening times or surgery I would only be able to make it on Saturdays, what is the first available appointment you have?

Antibiotics have stained my 2 year old’s teeth, is there anything I can do?

Tuesday, June 14th, 2011
Q.

I just noticed that my two year old daughter’s once beautifully white teeth are developing yellowish, mottled ‘stains’ on them. She was recently treated with antibiotics to treat a bacterial lung infection. Could the anibiotocs have caused this, or could something else be going on? Is there anything I can to to correct this or prevent it worsening?
My son also experienced this when he was about the same age and now, at the age of 5, he is quite self-consious of it. Fortunately, his baby teeth are starting to fall out now, but I want to ensure that my children’s permanent teeth are not afflicted with the same condition.

Thanks in advance for your help.
