What teeth straightening procedures take the least amount of time and do dentists offer student discount?

Thursday, December 2nd, 2010
Q.

Hi. I am 22 and I have a 2mm gap between my front two teeth. I am looking into ways I can get this treated – veneers and 6 month smile. I leave to go traveling in about 6 months, would that be an issue for the 6 month smile option? The rest of my teeth seem fine.
Also, since I am at university is there any sort of discount on dental? Or would I have to pay for it all?
Thanks

How can my receeded gum line be disguised if I have bridges done?

Thursday, December 2nd, 2010
Q.

Hi, I am currently thinking about going to Budapest to have bridges done on both my top and bottom teeth (UR4-UL4 and same on bottom) as my gums have receded so badly. I am worried about how the bridge is going to be fixed to my healthy teeth and how the gum line would be disguised?

I still have an open bite even though I have had braces since I was 9. What do you recommend?

Wednesday, December 1st, 2010
Q.

I have had braces and orthodontic work for 7 years, since I was 9, and I still have a pronounced open bite; the back teeth of my bottom jaw meet but my front teeth protrude, I now feel like the orthodontic work is doing nothing to solve this. What steps do you recommend I now take?

What are the possible treatments to close gaps in my front teeth and how much would that cost?

Friday, November 26th, 2010
Q.

Hello, I have a gap in my two top front teeth, the rest of my teeth are in line and healthy, as I have had braces before. But after the braces came out they put in a permanent wire behind the two top teeth to stop the gap re appearing, but it still came back. So i was wondering would there be a cosmetic solution that would just make that disappear? like make it look like its just my teeth?
thank you for any advice you could give me, also if you could say how much something like that might cost?

Is it normal to have had a crown break twice in three years and would any warranty exist?

Friday, November 26th, 2010
Q.

I had a crown fitted in July 2007 and the post has snapped. This is the second time this has happened to me. Am I unlucky or is this a common occurrence? Also do these crowns come with any guarantee because I’m now facing a bill of £2500+ for an implant.

How can I prevent my teeth from wearing down anymore?

Friday, November 26th, 2010
Q.

My teeth seem to be wearing down. Its not terrible, but I’m getting worried about them because my enamel isn’t that great either. I just don’t want them to wear down anymore than they already have. Is there anything i can do to repair the wearing or reduce it in some way?
