what is the cost of six month smiles

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008
Q.
I am exploring the options open to me for having my very overcrowded teeth straightened. An option is in which I am very interested is the six month smile. I would like to know if this is a suitable option for a 39 year old as I had heard that teeth cannot be straightened as you get older? I am also curious about the cost. My investigations so far have just said it’s cheaper than standard straightening treaments but I’d really like a ball park figure if it is suitable for someone of my age.

I have gum disease through thumb sucking can I gave cosmetic dentistry

Monday, July 14th, 2008
Q.
Hi, I’m 23 years old. I sucked my thumb until I was 13. My top teeth were pushed out and my bottom ones were pushed in. My bottom right 1 tooth has even turned 90 degrees so it’s perpendicular to the others! Because of this, the dentist told me I have pockets in my gums they harbour more bacteria than normal people. 3 years ago, I started suffering from gum disease. Ive since had 4 gum infections, 2 abscesses, 3 teeth extracted and I now have another broken tooth. My gums are wearing away too. Most of my problems are due to the fact I didn’t see a dentist from the ages of 16 and 20. Ive started going regularly again but I’m distressed at all the work that needs doing. Is there anything that can be done for me with cosmetic dentistry? I think I need braces to start with to straighten my teeth, but then I worry that they’re beyond repair because I have missing teeth. Please help me as it has had massive effects on my confidence and self esteem as I can’t smile or even talk properly as I’m so scared of anyone seeing my teeth.

A.
The important thing is that yo… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I Have bad teeth gum disease wear and grinding TMJ problems

Saturday, June 28th, 2008
Q.
Hi. I’ve very self conscious about my smile. I’ve always had problems with my teeth over the years. When I was younger I had many teeth out and they were never replaced. Since the age of 4 I have grinded my teeth with has caused wear on my teeth. Within the last year I tempted to visit the dentist again and he confirmed I had gum disease. I had treatment for this which was quite painful. The reason I went to the dentist is because I wanted my teeth straight as my bite is out of alignment and I thought it would help me with the grinding. The dentist told me I couldn’t have a brace as my teeth would probably fall out. I’m not sure now what to do, I’m very self conscious about what I look like and my two front teeth protrude. Also my jaw clicks so I think I might have TMJ. I have a real fear of the dentist as the ones I have been to have made me feel bad and haven’t been able to give me options to straighten my teeth. Do you have any advice?
