Q.

Hi, I am 33 years old and my teeth are in a poor condition..I am claiming income support and don’t have to pay for my treatment. My front teeth tops and bottoms are ok but the sides and back are heavily filled or broken.. I would like to fix and would like to know what i could claim for free with regards to veneers, crowns.etc..as it would probably cost me thousands of pound for the cosmetic dentistry i require.can you help?

I’m wondering what the best solution is to my teeth. I’ve next to no back teeth but have all my front teeth so i’m considering dentures,bridges,implants etc. I’d prefer to have fixed teeth so can you give me some advice and a rough price please.

My new crowns clash with my bottom teeth and I wanted it to feel natural. What can be done about this?

Monday, November 22nd, 2010
Q.

I have just had 4 Porcelain crowns fitted to my front upper teeth, temps were fine but for one week the permanents were a nighmare, i couldn’t eat, talk properly as they were clashing against my bottom teeth. Went back the dentist drilled their length and also the back to improve my bite, my bite is almost back to normal but she advised if i am still having trouble they can heightening my back teeth to open up my bite a bit more. Is this normal practice, obviously the crowns have now been drilled and are rough where once smooth and secondly if i still wasn’t satisfied to have more work done, hence more money even though my bite was fine to begin with. i’ve never had crowns before so thought what i was feeling was normal to begin with but the clashing of my teeth made me to believe this was something more and no amount of time would get me used to that, i could only talk with a lisp because i was too afraid to talk in case my teeth clashed together. i find it hard to believe that a dentist could miss my bite so much, i’ve been left traumatised by the whole experience, i’ve saved up for this treatment for 2 years and feel totally let down, shocked and very dissapointed. I would like to know if this is something that happens all the time, i would like to know as i would have never went private and had this treatment done. hopefully you can restore my faith in all of this.

I have lost a bit f the back of one of my bottom front teeth making the top of it very fragile. My dentist has built it up reluctantly as he says it wont last and will have to come out. Is there any hope for a crown or implant?
