Worried about pain and bleeding after implant treatment

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
my wife has had an implant fitted approx 5 months ago and is suffering occasional pain and bleeding from the implant.the bleeding only seems to occur when she is eating ryvitas and only seems to give pain at night.there is occasional pain and throbbing at other times.my wife only lightly brushes the implant. at around the same time she had teeth whitening which resulted in sensitive teeth so she was unable to tell if the pain has eased off since the implant was fitted.will the pain ease over time or will it be the same.my wife is scared off going back to the dentist at this point as she doesnt want to be portrayed as a moaner. any advise would be appreciated. thanks,

My teeth look too white and unreal after getting veneers

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
After getting porcelain veneer in my whole mouth and in addition my bite was raised (expensive!), I’ve been told that my teeth look too white, I wanted white teeth but did not realize I would be so uncomfortable, and so self-conscious that I try to hide them and careful when I smile. As you may guess guess, I am unhappy. Can you tell me if there is anything that I can do or be done to tone down the too white and unreal looking veneers?,

Would veneers or lumineers be suitable for my crooked teeth?

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
Hiya I am just wondering if you can have lumineers or veneers fitted if your teeth are crooked. It’s just my two front teeth, one of them goes over the other one and I hate it. Can you get either of these done to get rid of it? Also, would they be the same colour as my other teeth? Do you know how much roughly this would cost too? Thanks,

What can be done to stop teeth from turning black?

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
Hi, one of my top front teeth started to show signs of discoloration & i when i went to the dentist he advised i had a root canal & a vaneer fitted. I have noticed that the tooth underneath the vaneer has started to turn black, is there anything i can do? Also i have noticed that the other tooth has now started to discolour like the other one did, is there anything i can do to stop this turning black as well? I have contemplated whitening but how will this affect if i have had a vaneer fitted?,

Can I get implants for missing teeth due to baby teeth?

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
My dentist tells me that i have still alot of baby teeth and this is the reason why i have lost several teeth in the past due to the fact they are not as robust as adult teeth, he gave the correct name for this problem but i cannot remember it! Any how i want implants to replace the teeth that i have lost and the two which are due to lose because they are on their last legs so to speak. Most of the missing teeth are back and upper molars, is this the best option and what is the correct name for the problem that i have,

Do you have any advice about getting my teeth whitened?

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
Hello doctor, I am a teenager of 15 years of age and I have neglected my teeth for a few years since maybe the age of 7 or 8 where I only brushed once a day or once every other day and I am ashamed to say that I have only just started to think about doing something about it. This has caused stains on my teeth from a young age which have never gone which leads me to fear that these stains are maybe quite deep. I have started an oral hygiene regime in which I’m using Arm and Hammer Advanced Whitening toothpaste and Plax Mouthwash. My question is therefore, do you have any advice or information concerning what I can do to get my teeth healthier and whiter (especially!) and any specific products that would help my teeth stains disappear? Thanks.,

How can teeth that are out of line be treated?

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Q.
Hi there, I have a big teeth comparing to my jaw, one of my front teeth stands out, it’s not inline with the others which am not comfortable with. My teeth length varies. Do you think I can sort out my teeth length problem by filing? How about considering a veneer for the front teeth? How much it will cost? would I need a veneer for the filed teeth? Many thanks,
