Could one dental veneer improve my smile?

Friday, August 6th, 2010
Q.
Hello there. So, I was wondering about veneers. All I want is one, because my tooth is moved back a little bit on my top row and it really makes me self conscious about my smile. Unfortunately, my parents can’t afford braces. So I was wondering if that one veneer could improve my smile and make it look like my tooth isn’t actually back like it is. & how much do you think it would cost? Thanks for your time.,

Friday, August 6th, 2010
Q.
Hi, i have got a problem with both of my canine or eye teeth. They are bent inside my mouth,so when im brushing my teeth, i cant reach them properly. They cause the gum area around them to be sensitive when im brushing my teeth. Im limited when it comes to smiling coz i dont want people to see these annoying teeth. They ruin my smile. Im 37years old now and i think im too old for braces. Is it possible to have them straightened surgically ? Please help i need my smile and confidence back like all other people.,

My 3 year old son’s tooth has to be extracted, is there any way it can be saved?

Friday, August 6th, 2010
Q.
Hello Dr Solanki, I have a son who is 3 years & 2 months old. Over the past couple of weeks I have noticed his front tooth turning grey. We visited our NHS dentist yesterday and he explained that this tooth would have to be extracted within the near future. I am very distressed by this as I am aware that he will then have an unsightly gap until he is 7 or 8 years old and his adult tooth emerges. I am wondering if, via private treatment, this tooth can be saved. If not, are there any cosmetic procedures that would be suitable for a child this age following an extraction? Many thanks in advance for your help. Kind regards,,

I recently had my teeth whitened but I’m not happy. Now I’ve been told to use a home system. Can I get my money back?

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
Q.
I recently had my teeth whitened by Zoom. I was not offered a consultation to explain risks nor did my dentist make a record of shade/colour before of after. The results were very disappointing and noone has noticed any difference. When I complained to the dentist he offered a home system called “wy10” and charged extra. I feel I have been charged for 2 separate whitening systems. Do I have the right to ask for my money back as the Zoom was unsuccessful?,

I want to close the gap between my two front teeth and maybe have them whitened. What can be done and how much will it cost?

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010
Q.
My top set of teeth are fine, the main thing i want to amend is my gap between the front two, and to file the rest so they are more rounded and finish with whitening. Can you give me a rough idea as to how much this would cost and what procedure would be carried out? Thankyou,

I pulled and my baby tooth. The new tooth had stopped growing and the tooth’s turned black. Do I have tooth rot?

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010
Q.
At 15, I still had a few baby teeth left, one was loose, and so I pulled it out, which I know was a bad idea, but it was annoying. The whole tooth came out, and a new one grew in it’s place, however, the growth has stopped just above gum level. Over the last 2 years, the tooth appears to have turned black, and when I press my finger to the gum, I’ve noticed it smells, but it does not affect my breath at all. I mentioned it to my dentist once, but she said she would keep an eye on it, and it was nothing to worry about. My dentist hasn’t mentioned anything about it since, and I suffer none of the pain regarded with tooth rot.,
