My orthodontist suggests to remove the premolars from my 12 year old Pls advice

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
Hi, My 12 year old daughter is in the middle of her braces treatment. Her orthodontist noticed that she has 2 missing upper teeth (I think they are the premolars.) Now that her lower premolars are coming out, the orthodontist suggest that she has them removed. He said that number of teeth on her upper should be the same amount as her lower. I wonder if that’s true. Right now my daughter’s x-ray should that she has 2 bottom molars that have not come out yet but no sign for her other upper molars. She now has 10 teeth on the upper and 12 on her lower bridge. I’m worried that if I have the other 2 lower teeth removed she will not have enough teeth in the future! What is your opinion?

Is it possible to have dental implant in lower left molar area

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
Following some failed (and negligent) dental treatment i require an implant in the lower left second molar area. i’ve had some consultations with implant surgeons, some of whom have told me it’s not usually desireable to place implants in this area. i’m interested to know if you feel it is usually possible to place implants in this area? if so, how many have you personally placed? and what success rate do you have for placements in this lower second molar region? many thanks

Is it a good idea to get dental implant for my molar

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
Hi there, I’ve recently had a molar second from back on the top jaw removed because of a fractured tooth from eating some hard chocolate. I’m quite young 25 and was wondering if you thought getting a dental implant was a good idea or bad? Most of my molars have quite large fillings and im afraid of the bone tissue and teeth close to the gap weakening. Also i’ve heard of some new advancements of growing new teeth from stem cells. Would this be a viable option in the future? Thanks

How much would it cost to have a bridge to fill in two gaps

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
I’m asking on behalf of a friend how much he could expect to pay for bridges to fill in two gaps at the front of his teeth. the two top teeth either side of the main two front ones are only baby teeth and he has kept them in to prevent gaps after braces, but they are naturally a lot shorter and hinder his smile aswell as not being as stable as an adult tooth

Ive a deep and wide gum recession is it possible for me to get implants

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
Dear Dr Moore I have been told that I have Miller’s class 4 gum recession on two front teeth and consequently cannot have a gum graft to achieve any root coverage. Is this true? Secondly: With such deep and wide recession would the eventual need for implants be jeopardised i.e. with such a level of recession would it be a problem to fit implants if I lost the teeth in question?Many thanks.
