I Had Work Done Abroad And I Need To Find A UK Dentist To Fix A Clip That Has Broken On One Of The Bars?

Friday, September 20th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Moore, I really hope you can help me. I have complete over-dentures supported by Eight implants, this work was carried out in Malta, but I cannot go back at this time. One of the bars that engage with the clips has broken and I am fearful that the remaining one will go so I need to find someone in the UK who can fix it. The system is Royal Biocare. The last time I had a problem with the clips I tried to get help from all the NHS dental help lines but to no avail because I had the work done privately, they couldn’t give me any helpful advice. I can only be away for a day as my husband is ill. Can you suggest anything that I could do?

My Daughter Has Been Suffering With Bulimia And She Needs Help As She Doesn’t Want Dentures. What Can Be Done?

Wednesday, September 18th, 2013
Q.

Hello can you please help?
My daughter has big problems with her teeth after suffering with bulimia over several years. We are trying to find a sympathetic person to help her and so far with the dentists in our region (North Wales) they have not been particularly helpful. We are not a well off family but I have offered to help her try and find somebody who is willing to look at her ~ her present dentist has suggested dentures, she is only 34 and I feel this person doesn’t really care much. She has just lost a front tooth and is absolutely mortified about it and I feel so sorry as she is a beautiful girl. Please can someone help to put the smile back on my lovely daughters face without us having to take out a mortgage to do it? With thanks.

My Father’s New False Teeth Are Wobbly, What Sort Of Price Am I Looking at To Get Them Fixed?

Friday, September 13th, 2013
Q.

Hi Dr Mark Hughes,

My dad had his front four teeth taken out and fitted with false permanent teeth. However, all four teeth are wobbly now and I think they may soon to fall out. He finds it hard to bite on certain foods in the fear it will all fall out sooner. I think they need to be replaced as a good job was not done on them in the first place. What sort of price am I looking at to have them re-done and can they be re-done?

Thanks.

My Teeth Are In A Bad Condition And I’m Diabetic, Please Offer Me Some Advise?

Thursday, September 12th, 2013
Q.

Hello. Basically I’d like to state that my teeth are terrible and it makes me cringe just looking at them. I would say there are only eight good teeth and one of them is a wisdom tooth, it is getting to the point now where I’m struggling to eat proper meals and being diabetic and only twenty-one years old makes it so embarrassing, the fact that I’m even contemplating a dentist makes me want to cry.  I really don’t know what to do any more and it’s even affecting my work life, please any advice would be so useful,
thank you for taking the time to read this.

I Would Really Like To Do Something About The Space Between My Front Teeth, But Implants Are Too Expensive, What Else Can I Do?

Tuesday, September 10th, 2013
Q.

Hi, I would really like to know whether you can have a bridge fitted if there is just one tooth at one side and two teeth at the other side. I believe I need a bridge for four teeth? I have a partial denture at the moment, the space is between my front teeth and I would really like to do something about it, but implants are a bit too expensive for me. I have had the dentures for the past thirty years and not sure if anything can be done for me now, perhaps you can advise me on this whether it would be possible to do or not?

I’ve Seen A Few Dentists Over My Gum Disease And Now Want To Find A Reliable Dentist For Treatment. What Would This Cost?

Friday, September 6th, 2013
Q.

Hello. I am 35 years old, I have hereditary gum disease and all my teeth are loose in my gums. I have seen a few NHS dentists, and seen a hygienist at what I feel was wasted cost. It makes me feel incredibly unhappy to think it’s not going to be long until I am toothless! How much am I looking at getting a complete set of implants upper and lower sets including consultations, x-rays, aftercare etc. Are there any payment plans available? Also could you recommend any good reliable dentists? Travelling is not a problem for me within the UK. Thank you.

My Teeth Are Being Repaired But Don’t Look Great, Which Treatments Could Help?

Thursday, July 11th, 2013
Q.

I have quite bad teeth, on the last visit to the dentist at least 4 or 5 need to be removed, the rest are in need of work, which is being done as fillings etc, but they are being done as essential stuff, and not to look good

I have neglected my teeth in the past, and unfortunately although now I try to look after what I have, its too late to do anything other than salvage what is left

My job is very customer and public facing now, and my teeth are starting to cause me some real emotional problems associated with the embaressment of them looking the way they do

What I want to know, Is what would be the best way of getting them looking good again, like a fresh start, would that be dentures? implants? and also how does the cost compare?

Thank you

My Overall Dental Health Is Poor And I Would Like To Know If I Can Get Free NHS Treatment?

Wednesday, May 22nd, 2013
Q.

hello im 18 and i’ve had trouble with my teeth for 12 years now i’ve had many teeth taken out when i was young now my teeth are turning, i have a gap in the middle of my two top teeth and and holes in my molars that have been fillled in many times. Despite this though it all just sinks back in the teeth and consequently i have developed a lisp and get major headaches as my jaw is out of place by half a centimeter. It’s all quite distressing and I need to get it sorted out because it’s destroying my confidence and I can’t stand having pain and awkwardness all of the time. Basically I was wondering whether you know if I could get dentures free from the NHS?

My Dentures Are Awful, What Advice Do You Have?

Friday, May 17th, 2013
Q.

I had to get top and bottom plates one year ago. I take bad with how false and ugly they are. I cannot bite into anything and have to cut everything up, even toast. I have lost loads of weight because of this. I cannot open my mouth to take a mouthful off a fork as my teeth fall down. They look like teeth shaped out of plastic, are all blended together and not one individual tooth. If I eat any thing even a biscuit my teeth are a mess with bits of food. I cannot eat in front of anybody because of this, therefore can never go out for a meal. I had bad teeth and made a desperate decision to get false sets. I am devastated and would be glad of any advice
Regards.
