I have 4 missing teeth and wear a partial denture. My gums are receeding too. Can I have a dental bridge instead. My nhs dentist has said i’m not suitable,but I’d like a second opinion on this?
Thank you for your reply.
Hello im 17, and I dont have any big upper lateral inscisors, only 1 milk tooth lateral inscisor on the right… and so was given a brace from my orthodentist to make the gap on the left bigger, and to make a gap between my top tooth and the milk tooth so i can get a bridge fitted, however my dentist is saying i should get impants, and my orthodentist is saying a bridge, so i dont know what to do. Your help will be much appreciated, many thanks.
I have an infected root under a post and crown. The second set of antibiotics have helped but I am
Sure the infection remains as still jaw pain and slight swelling the course finishes in 4 days time. I understand a bridge or implant is the last options after extraction? I am
Unsure which way to go? I have a crown
Next to infected tooth and could this be used to do
Bridge? Or do I compromise tooth behind? With implants can I get any help as a student? I an really confused? Don’t want to leave a gap due to
Being unsightly! Are these my only options apart from a
Denture? Thanks
side effects of veneers
I had a wisdom tooth drilled two months ago for a small cavity (composite filling). The tooth has been sensitive to cold, heat, touch, sometimes just aches. About a week ago….I was much better without those symptoms but this week the pain has returned. Should I give this more time or does this look like a root canal, extraction? Are there other options besides RC and extraction?
I had veneers on my upper and lowers for 25yrs and had no problem..I recently had them redone by another dentist 2 uppers have cracked ..and fallen off….also when they were doing a
impression on the bottom and pulled up the tray 2 came off which they glued back on I feel like I should go elsewhere and start over..I paid a forture so I’m at a loss…….. thank you
I had a tooth removed but it broke while in the removal process. The roots have been left behind as the dentist could not get them out. Parts of the tooth are still sitting in my gum. How is this going to impact on me in the future. Risks? Possible bad repercussions?
I am a 47 year old female. I had peridontal surgery 22 years ago and am fortunate to still have my teeth, however I am not happy with the looks of them. Some years back my dentist bonded them to make the more stable. The bonding has discolored from the color of my teeth and no longer looks very good. I have had it redone a couple times but he says it doesn’t adhere well after the first time because of not having the porous tooth surface to adhere too. I do have a lot of bone loss, but it has held its own for all these years and when I smile you really can’t see that. Guess the discoloration is my main concern. He talked about a partial but I’m not ready to give up my teeth yet. Thanks
Hi i am considering dental surgery on my two front teeth as i have a gap and one is a little longer then the other, i live in Portsmouth and i was wondering the best place to go to have this looked at near me, I’m a model and I’m having real trouble with my confidence in smiling, any ideas??
I have severe misalignment of my upper jaw over my lower i can stick a finger in between. I know that i would probably need surgery to realign my jaw as i was advised this as a teenager. how do i go about this i am very keen to get it sorted as it ruins my appearance. Could i get it through a general private orthodontic practice in London? or through the nhs? my dentist said I would have to pay privately) Also is there anyway i call call to ask about it or somewhere you would recommend?
Many thanks
