My Teeth Are Too Far Back, What Can I Do To move Them Forward?

Wednesday, February 20th, 2013
Q.

my mouth looks like its sucked in like an old man, it seems to me this is because my teeth are too far back and are not seen whilst talking, and my laugh looks terrible, what treatments are available to move my teeth forward and give a nice smile and not make my mouth look like its sucked in, this also causes my chin to stick out and my lips less visible, i am 25 years of age and haven’t been to the dentist in a while, i just want the quickest process available. thanks you

Am I Being Overcharged For A Bridge?

Wednesday, February 20th, 2013
Q.

Hello doctor Bohara, In my lower right incisor I am still retaining my milk tooth which I am looking to replace. I am told by my dentist Dr. Malik that it will be done with a Maryland dental bridge. I have been quoted £1400-£1800 for the Bridge depending on if it’s metal or resin bonded. I thought this cost was a little too steep, I get this feeling sheet having looked at maryland bridge pricing in London on the Internet. Could you please advice me on this issue?

Thank you

I would like to replace my gold crown and wish to know more information about the crown and the cost involved.

Thursday, February 14th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Moore. Today I have been for a check up with my dentist. I was informed that I needed a new crown. The present one is gold. The tooth that needs the crown is at the back of my mouth. I am a NHS patient I wanted to have a gold replacement however, I was adviced that the NHS do not replace gold crowns with gold and If I wanted gold I would need to be a private patient. Instead I would now have to have a silver.on NHS so I asked what materials and metals were in the crown . The dentist was not able to answer my question.Nor could anyone else at the surgery. I was told to check online.
Also I was asked to pay for the treatment before any work would take place. I have paid £209 is this usual practice? I have never paid upfront before.

Will My Crown Match The Colour Of The Vaneer Next To It

Wednesday, February 6th, 2013
Q.

Hi,
4 years ago I had porcelain veneers fitted to my 2 front teeth and one tooth next to them on the NHS. I have been very happy with them and made lfestlye changes and conducted what I thought was good oral hygeine to care for them.
ONe of my front veneers came off at the weekend and smashed. At my NHS dentist on Monday she said I cant have another veneer as the quality of the tooth underneath isnt good enough so I need a crown.
I’m concerned that a porcelain fused to metal crown is not going to colour match the 2 veneers either side of it. She didnt give me any information about how it would look and dismissed my concerns that a black line would eventually show. Even though I know this to be the case after time!
What would be your advice on how to get the best aesthetics and strength in my front tooth?

Thankyou

Am I Being Overcharged For Implants?

Thursday, January 17th, 2013
Q.

I have a broken front tooth which was previously root filled many years ago. I broke the tooth whilst biting onto a hard fruit. I have seen many dentists who have said that a simple crown cannot be fitted as the tooth has broken to the jaw line…or something along that route. I am looking or a more permanent solution to bridging or dentures, and want to have an implant placed. My local dentist has this facility but are charging £2500 for the whole procedure, fixtures and fitting. I am a very nervous patient who absolutely hates going to the dentist. I have looked online and it seems my dentist surgery is asking for a lot of money compared to many sites who stare implants can be placed from £1000. I would like to know how much is a reasonable price for a front tooth implant to be put in place. please do help me. Thank you kindly

Will Anyone Fix My Teeth For Free?

Tuesday, January 15th, 2013
Q.

Hi Dr Patel, I am 26 yrs of age, I am looking for a little advice here it goes….My appearance was always very important to me until 2 yrs ago when I was attacked twice by an ex partner leaving me with damage to my jaw and teeth since the incident I have been told I will lose my own teeth as nerves were damaged it has got to the point that I am wishing they would fall out even if I am supplied with standard nhs ‘false teeth’ as my own now look dreadful. There is no possible way I could afford cosmetic dental work so I was wondering if there is any dentists that offer work done in exchange for before and after advertisement pictures. To promote their work to new potential customers. I googled this question and was directed to this site any information would be greatly appreciated thanks
