I’m experiencing dull pain after an implant has been fitted and I’ve has root canal work too. What can be done?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
ever since having a dental implant fitted around a year ago, have had a dull ache on the gums around the implant, the dentist who fitted implant says its coming from the tooth next to the implant, so have had root canal work on the suggested tooth next to implant and am still feeling no better, can an implant give you pain after being fitted, and if so what can be done about it, I have never really liked the dentist that did the implant work, as he is very difficult to speak to, and just has no personality or patience where his work is concerned, he says its fine….but I still feel pain all the time…,

Will I need to replace my cracked veneer or can it be fixed?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
My veneer has cracked down the middle and is now loose. It will sit on the tooth but is not secured in place. The crack is not really noticeable. Would it be possible to refix the veneer to the tooth even though it is two pieces.,

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.,

Do canine teeth take longer to move and how much pain is expected?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
I am 33 years old and I have 8 months that I got braces . My doctor told me that in 1 and half year my teeth should be corrected. My concern is that all my teeth are moving, EXCEPT MY UPPER CANINE TEETH ( the upper canine teeth are littlle bit up but not extremely high ) however i haven’t seen yet at least a little bit of improvement on my teeth that are moving. . another extra concern is when i have the rubber bands of my brances changed i never feel the typical pressure and not pain at all comparing as the first time i got the braces, every time i got the braces’ rubber changed i never feel the pressure or pain. is that normal? TWO QUESTIONS: do canine teeth take longer to move down than the rest of teeth? should i feel pain and pressure on my teeth everytime i have the rubber band of my braces changed? how long is estimated in my age to have the teeth corrected with braces?? Please advice,
