Can you advise how to realign my top set of teeth?

Thursday, March 3rd, 2011
Q.

I have one tooth pushed back from my top set of teeth, it’s right next to the left centre tooth. I’ve never been bothered by my other teeth which are also slightly wonky, especially my bottom teeth, but this tooth affects me so much I can only smile on the other side. I know I’ll end up paying for the treatment on it, so what’s the best option?

My teeth hurt after root canal, is this indicative of a problem?

Thursday, March 3rd, 2011
Q.

HI

I had root canal treatment yesterday, and whilst the treatment went well i have a temperary filling and crown and need to have it finished next week. This is because my dentist said the roots are very long, she actually shown me the Xray and they practically come to the bottom of my jaw line. So more prep is needed.

Now to my concern: after the treatment everything was fine with no pain, however this moring i have woke up with quite a sensitive tooth, it’s not painful in general, just when i bite down. Is this normal, And can having such long roots cause more serious problems in the future? My dentist seemed quite….not concerned but well a little bemused!! Don’t get me wrong i like my dentist she is very patient with me as im a very nervous patient, i would just like a specialist opinion.

I have cracked my bridge, can I have it glued or should I get implants?

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011
Q.

Hi
I have bridge that spans 7 teeth, front lower jaw. I have had this since the age of 19 and I am now 45. I had to have this bridge as 4 second teeth that did not appear, so had milk teeth until the age of 19. I have just cracked my bridge in the centre and its feels a little loose. Can this be “glued” or mended, or will I have to have implants?. Back when I was 19 I was able to get this on the NHS as it was deemed to be medical rather than cosmetic. Is this still a possibility?, if not can you give be a rough cost per implant, abutment and crown.

Many thanks

Jenny

Have you any tips as to how to find a dental implant specialist to treat my daughter?

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011
Q.

My daughter when aged 11 was involved in an accident which knocked her 2 front teeth out. She was lucky enough to have crowns fitted. Unfortunately one of her crowns has failed due to the fact that the tooth that was left in the gum has cracked which my dentist thinks was possibly sustained at the time of the trauma. This now means that she has no alternative, but to go down the implant route or denture route, but she is only 19 so the implant route would be better for her. I need to get as much information as I can on this subject and how I go about finding a specialist in this field in the area that I live which is Liverpool. Any advice would be appreciated.
