I have just purchased an enlighten evolution 3 home kit from my dentist at a cost of £350, I currently have cosmetic bonding on my front teeth to hide a gap, my dentist has refused to remove this before I start my whitening course, I expressed I was unhappy with this as the compsite will remain dis-coloured whilst the rest of my teeth will lighten, is there anything I can do as he was quite persistant in his refusal to remove this first!
Hi,
My daughter has overcrowded teeth and we have been told by the dentist and orthodontist that she will need teeth extracted. Since then I have been told by a friend who claims to have done a lot of research that healthy teeth should never be removed. Can you tell me whether I should say no to the extractions.
Thanks
I have 2 crowns on my 2 front teeth that have started to crack. They are about 20 years old and I need them replaced. How do I go about finding a good dentist to do that since I have just moved to the North Carolina area.
Also, if they are cracked, how long until they may break? Finances are tight as we just moved.
Thanks for taking the time to answer.

Why are they refusing me braces?
hello , i had buck teeth as a kid and had braces and even though i love my front profile i hate my side pro!
my 2 front teeth are still out from the others and there too long , i was wondering if i could have a brace to push them back so there all in line and straight and then maybe file my 2 front teeth down so there all level . thanks
I have gaps between almost all my teeth..i was wondering if six month would work for me..my teeth are straight the only problems are the gaps…if it would work for me how much would it cost and how long would it take
hi, my jaw is not correctly defined as my bottom jaw is alot backwards making my top teeth look like theu stick out, i have been advised as a teenager that i would need my bottom jaw straightened through surgery to allign me top and bottom teeth to correct my bite, but before this procedure can be done they are (nhs dental hospital) advising me to have braces for around 2 years to straighten my teeth, what my question is then is that, would i need to use the 2 year braces to allign them or could i use a more modern method by which i mean quicker method and then have the surgery?
I have a 1cm gap between my front teeth but all the rest of my teeth are straight and line up. I went to see a dentist about getting the gap closed but was told by using braces he would have to move all my teeth forward to close the gap and that may not work or he could cut down my teeth and close it with crowns but he would be reluctant to do that as im only 21. So i came out of the appointment having been offered no solution. Is there any way i could get the gap closed and keep my natural teeth?
I grint my teeth in my sleep, this has caused my front teeth to chip. went to the dentist to ask about crowns today, he said they wouldn’t be provided on the nhs as its cosmetic and will cost £700 per tooth. is this right?
