I have always taken good care of my teeth, (brushing

Friday, October 8th, 2010
Q.
I have always taken good care of my teeth, (brushing 2-3x daily, flossing 1-2x daily, and using mouthwash 2-3x daily). I noticed last week there are a few of my teeth that are chipping off, and a few of my back teeth, in front of my wisdom teeth are discolored. I would like to get lumineers or veneers, I am a teeth grinder. Would you recommend either? If so, may I use a mouth guard to correct this problem while I have lumineers or veneers? Thank you. Have a great day.,

Veneers can come away from the… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Do my grinding teeth have any connection to my migraines?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have been grinding my teeth for quite some time, I’ve been through 2 bite guards, so I was referred to the Belfast school of dentistry, the professor there, fitted me with a bite guard, it is so thick, it’s massive. But, I suffer from Basilar migraines, will the grinding of the teeth have any bearing on the migraines? As my husband says that many a time I have migraines in my sleep and I don’t even know that I’ve had them. I just wondered if they were connected. I look forward to what you think.,

Q.
My mom is and has been in excruciating pain for the past 10 days. She was told by her dentist a while ago that she grinds her teeth and was given a guard which she wears occasiionally. We have been to her dentist and the dental hospital a few times now, other than telling her what she already knows and making a further appointment to look at the fitting for the guard they have not been able to help… I cant express enough how much continous pain she is in.

Worried to loose tooth due to my grinding habit can I have veneers?

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009
Q.
Hello I grind my teeth a lot in my sleep and sometimes during the day when I am nervous or stressed. My dentist gave me a hard retainer which did not work. He then gave me a softer one which I chewed through. I now sleep with the hard one in and the soft one on top of that, and it helps but not completely. I am now starting to chew through them both. I have a lot of headaches, mainly tension ones, and I often wake up with tension in my neck and shoulders. I have also started to notice that my teeth have become much more sensitive and I am worrying that I am slowly grinding my teeth away and exposing nerves! I was wondering if I do (fingers crossed I don’t), would I be able to get veneers? Also would i get them free or would I pay? And if I did would they be made of something strong enough to put up with my grinding? Thanks!

A.
Veneers would not be a good id… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
