I am dental phobic and I’m suffering from an abscess. In the past I have had sedation but I still couldn’t have the treatment as I was terrified. I am in so much pain and discomfort I really don’t know what to do. My mum would pay for me to have treatment but I need to be asleep. Any suggestions? I live in Taunton, Somerset.
Hi. I have very bad gums, really badly receded and I’, scared of loosing my teeth. I’m only 33 and go to my dentist regularly but he told me I had nothing to worry about. But I am concerned because my teeth have become very sensitive as my gums have receded. What treatments are available and what would you recommend? My mother had the same problem and has lost many of her teeth – I dont want to loose mine because my teeth are very strong. HELP. Please
hi, my top two front teeth feel slightly wobbly, i’ve heard that things feel more “exxagerated” if you touch them with your fingertips, so im wondering am i in danger of loosing my teeth, i’ve also heard it’s normal for teeth to feel slighty ‘mobile’ as your jaws grows which i believe it is as im only fourteen nearly thirteen, will i lose my teeth ?! HELP
Hello,
I had a crown fitted on a front tooth 10 years ago which was never that convincing, with a dark visible line on the gum line. The tooth underneath is dead and black (impact injury, nerve taken out), so the gum also looks slightly discoloured.
Last year i finally decided I wanted a more natural looking tooth so I went to have it replaced and was advised a porcelain crown. I went with this, the dentist was helpful and friendly and I left pretty happy with the results, although the join to the gum did look slightly hard, square and white.
But now a year later i’ve started to notice a faint, dark line appearing on the gum join, becoming increasingly visible over the past few weeks.
It seems like the gum is receding and the dark tooth becoming visible underneath, either that or the the top of the crown is wearing down (?)
Does anyone know where I stand regarding this? It seems like a lot of money to be spending for such temporary results, it’s not a million miles away from where it was before (although the rest of the tooth looks better), I cant help feeling it was a waste of money since i went in for purely cosmetic reasons.
Do i have any rights regarding replacement or compensation or is it just tough luck since the crown is still attached? I look after my teeth, so it’s not like they’re getting neglected.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
thanks
I was looking to have cosmetic surgery to alter the gum line, however i have a crown on one of my front teeth and was wondering if this would be a problem or could it be altered when the gum line is also altered.
Thanks

Hi, I am 43 years old and have aggressive periodontal disease.
I have lost a few teeth already and this has totally destroyed my confidence, I brush,floss and use a mouthwash every day but I feel the damage done is so severe I can’t really reverse what has been done.I don’t smile if I can help it and was wondering if you had any advice for me,I regularly go for check ups and cleaning.
Many thanks
My daughter is 41, she has 5 children and after each pregnancy her teeth has become loose, her gums are receeding. She need help and advice. When she went to her local dentist he told her she would have to have her teeth take out and be without teeth for 3 weeks, all sound pre historic, I have read your very impressive profile and would like your opinion on my daughter teeth. Many thanks for your help,
