What emergency measures can be taken to ensure that I can keep my front tooth?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
Dear Dr Solanki Over the years, I have had two crowns on my upper left incisor. There isn’t very much of the original tooth left. The tooth is now weak the crown is loose. My dentist thinks the root may have softened over time. The post in the crown is not broken. My concern is about the whole thing coming apart before I can start my treatment in 1 to 2 weeks. What emergency measures can be taken to ensure that I can keep my front tooth? Many thanks.,

The bridge is digging into my gums, what can I do about this?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
I had a front lower bridge fitted two months ago three teeth being extracted and the bridge being fixed to two healthy teeth one side and one healthy tooth the other. The side where the two healthy teeth were involved is fine but the other side feels as if the bridge is digging into my gum, It’s not particularly painful but uncomfortable.,

My husband has been told that he can’t have a bridge, should we seek a second opinion?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
My husband has to have the tooth between his front tooth and canine tooth removed as it cannot be crowned. His dentist said that it can’t be bridged because the gap is too big and recommended a plate, which fills my husband with horror. As he has a healthy tooth either side, why can’t it be bridged? I had one of my front teeth removed and that was bridged very successfully. Would a second opinion be advisable?,
