What is the best course of action for my daughter if all of her front teeth are removed?

Monday, September 6th, 2010
Q.
My daughter suffered a trauma to her 2 upper front teeth as a child and had crowns fitted. At age now 22 she has had root canal and surgery to try and clear an infection that has occured around the root. If the infection re-occurs she has been told there is no more treatment available and her teeth will have to be removed. She has a massive phobia about her teeth and dentists as a result of her accident and always has to be sedated she is even having counselling to help her with this but her councellor has informed her she will have no front teeth for about 6 weeks if they have to be removed and she is distraught. Can you advise the best course of action if she does have to have them removed and what the process would be. Since the accident I have always taken her to a private dentist and am aware of the costs but I want her to have the best available because of her phobia. Please can you help,

Can you suggest a treatment that can move my teeth back into place as quickly as possible?

Monday, September 6th, 2010
Q.
Hi Dr Solanki, I am getting married in November and I had braces approx 4 years ago, but after having specifically requested from my dentist a wire to be attached to the back of my teeth, my dentist refused and told me a retainer was much more effective. Unfortunately I did not wear my retainer as I should have as I was in a customer facing job so my teeth have moved slightly – and mainly the front 2 which is really bothering me. I am wondering if there is any way of having a plate or similiar constructed to push the teeth back into place, it really is quite minor as when I put my retainer back it only has about 3mm gap from stopping it clicking back into place. Can you please suggest any methods that would assist before November other than veneers? Many thanks,
A.

Is it too late now to do anything other than remove all the teeth?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
My 32 year old son has severe acid erosion of the teeth. Was treated originally in a Leeds Dentristy School at the age of 16 but was told that treatment needed to be done regularly and would be very expensive. He now has not been to a dentist for years, is very self conscious and this interferes with all aspects of his working and social life. It would be wonderful to see his confidence come back and see a smile! Is it too late now to do anything other than remove all the teeth? Would dearly love to help him sort this out as I think the cost is also putting him off seeking advice. Teeth are now very bad, marked with black spots and seem to be crumbling away. Many thanks.,
