My crown has broken off. What should I do and how much will it cost?

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011
Q.

My crown broke off leaving the metal post embedded in the remaining tooth.? Front tooth.
Emergency services could not help me.
what will be the next proceedure as i nee to return to work following the bank holiday and i dont wish to be walking around with a massive gap in my tooth.
I still have the crown with me which was fitted over 15 years ago. I have the other 3 crowns in place. I dont think they are weakened. The dentist I spoke with at the emergency services said this could have been a result of wear and tear.
What should I do & how much will this cost?

I have recently had crowns put in but I feel that some are bit too long, can I have them shaved down a little?

Monday, April 18th, 2011
Q.

Hi,

I recently had four zirconia crowns placed on my upper anterior teeth, and while I love them I think the lateral ones are a little bit too long (nearly the same length as the middle ones).

I was wondering if it would be possible to have them shaved down up to about half a millimetre, or would this undermine their strength and longevity?

And if so, can you tell me approximately how much I should expect to pay for this?

Regards,

My front teeth are crowded and protrude but due to short roots i have been advised against braces, any advice?

Tuesday, April 12th, 2011
Q.

Hello sir, i have very short roots on my front two teeth and have accordingly been advised against getting braces. My front teeth are slightly crowded, protruding by about 3.5mm. I am wondering about getting veneers to slightly reduce this, as i am an actor and aesthetics are very important to me. I have read of new dentin bonding technologies that allow veneers to correct such a problem, and was just wondering if you thought this was a wise idea. Any advise would be greatly appreciated- thanks alot
