Can my front four discoloured teeth be whitened, despite having root canal treatment in the past?

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011
Q.

I have root canal on my 4 top teeth about 5 years ago and they are very discoloured,especially the front 2..I am worried about a couple of things 1) I spoke to my very young recently qualified dentist about having them whitened and she said no prob..But when I was researching online I read teeth that have had root canal can’t be whitened..Also I read that root canal teeth should have a crown on them straight away as they could snap and break at any time,I had the root canal done at 2 different dentists..and neither of the dentists mentioned anything..I am now petrified my teeth are going to break at any moment..Any advice please?

I always wore my retainer, but now I have a small gap in my teeth, what can I do about it?

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011
Q.

Hi there,
I previously had braces for my front gap after 5 years of religiously wearing my plastic retainer the gap has re-opened. Is this the most effective treatment for me? i worry this is an awful lot of money for quite a small gap.

Look forward to hearing from you

What ortho treatment would you recommend to close gaps?

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011
Q.

I’ve several gaps on my lower left teeth caused by tooth removal, due to over crowding when i was younger.

What treatment would be better, fixed braces or invisilign?

I’d also like to know if a few small chips on my two front teeth could be repaired? Again, which would be better, white fillings or bonding?

Can a small gap between front and lateral tooth be filled?

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011
Q.

Andrew, a hygenist has filed the enamel between my front and lateral tooth through vigarious scraping and so has created a small gap there when there wasn’t one. I know it is not there normally as I have a bonded retainer from orthodontic treatment and my teeth were perfect then. As this small gap is ruining my perfect smile, is there a way that this gap can be bonded with some filling material at all to replace the tooth enamel with the retainer there? The filed gap there now is below the retainer wire so can this be bypassed and bonded?

I am missing a few teeth, besides dental implants, what else can I have done?

Monday, January 17th, 2011
Q.

I need some extensive work done on my mouth as i have a lot of teeth missing which were removed due to infection and the use of cocaine when i was younger. Im now 28 and very concious of my smile, it affects my attitude and my confidence severely. Even though no one knows – i know.

I have 7 of my front teeth but most of my teeth along the bottom back sides are missing and need implants..i have looked at the costs of these and there is no way on earth i could ever afford them! Im in full time employment but my wages will just not allow for this expense its far too high. Is there anything I can do – its driving me insane!

Can you suggest what treatment to use to correct my inward-facing bottom teeth and outward-facing top teeth?

Monday, January 17th, 2011
Q.

Hi Dr.Solanki,

I had undergone root canal treatment on my upper front teeth which broke when i was a kid. Apparently I had to cover that tooth with a cap and my upper row of front teeth are projecting a little outwards. My lower row of teeth are crooked and are pointing a little inwards. Please suggest me a way to get my teeth aligned ??
