My denture is hideous and affects my speech, why wasn’t I offered a bridge as an alternative?

Wednesday, April 13th, 2011
Q.

I’ve just had a denture fitted to replace 2 missing teeth which are cloese to the front. It looks and fels hideous and it affects my speech. I know it will take some getting used to but I was never offered the choice of having a bridge. Is there any reason why?

Q.

Hello,

I am having major problems with my teeth at the moment, i am currently with an nhs dentist at the local hospital, i have been seeing a dentist regularly for 10 yrs, over the last 2 years my teeth has severely deteriorated, due to osteoporosis and parathyroid which is draining my bones of calcium, i am a 43 yr old woman , the problem seems that my teeth are rotting and the gums are receding, all my dentist seems to do is remove teeth, i now have 6 gaps, 4 at the front, and i plate with 2 teeth on, all this is making me feel very down and he is planning on removing more, i don’t pay for treatment at the moment, but could you please advise me on what options i have, and is it possible to be fitted with a bridge, thank you very much in advance

Can you recommend a way to replace two missing top teeth – not dentures or implants?

Monday, April 11th, 2011
Q.

i am missing 2 teeth on top.it is not the 2 front teeth, but the ones to the left and right of them. What would be the best fix for them. I don’t want no partial and i cant afford implants . One of the front ones has also started to discolor like it is going bad so i might have to have it removed too.

My doctor has suggest two option to create my perfect smile, a brace or root canal surgery. Which is the better option?

Thursday, April 7th, 2011
Q.

Hi
I have been having consultations with a dentits. He was going to fit several crowns and veneers with a bridge to create a perfect smile. However he has said today after taking molds that one of my teeth is too crooked and that really I need braces onit. I cant afford this and it would take years. He said the only alternative was to do a root canal kill off the tooth and put a porcelain veneer on top, he said there were risks and it was un ethical, but as I still seemed interested he would do it for me. To me any type of purely cosmetric dentistry is invasive and could be seen as unethical. Do you think it is ok to carry on with this? inorder to achieve what I set out to do or is it too much of a risk? Many thanks

I recently recieved root canal treatment but an abscess still remains 4 days after. What advice could you offer?

Thursday, April 7th, 2011
Q.

Hi, I just paid £289 for Root canal, it was 6pm and he did it very quickly, I had a small abcess at root and now 4 days later their is still a bump and it feels sore and still like an abcess when I press on it, I have had it 4 years and I think its making me run down. I have never had anti biotics, what should I do? I do not want to lose the tooth as its my front one and I need a dental bridge from it.
