Saturday, April 18th, 2009
Q.
Yes im 20 years old and in the past 2-3 years the enamel on the top of my teeth (near the gumline) has slowly be dissappearing. i believe its called the DENTINE that is exposed. its not bad and there not that sensitve at all. my question is, is their anyway to replace or fill in the missing enamel where the dentine is exposed. instead of getting veners. and could this be cause by some kind of calcium definecy? my mother was a calcium producer and my sisters teeth when she was born all had to be cap with silver. i was wondering if mine my have started in my later years? i havent had insurence for about 6 years so thats way i havent went to dentist. ive been brushing twice a day, no acidic drinks except gatorade 2 and water, and using crest enamel protection products. please and thank you

Do you offer any treatment for the discolouration of gums? There is a treatment available in the USA but I am not aware of this in the UK.

Could the treatment for gum disese be done on the NHS

Thursday, April 16th, 2009
Q.
Hi One of my teeth is loose (next to the front ones) and I have decide to investigate the possibility of getting an implant. I attended a clinic for an initial consultation with examination and CT scan. I have been told by the consultant that I have some gum disese and pocketing which requires treatment first. I was advised that I would need three 1 hour sessions with the peridontist and that each session would costs £240. What exactly would this work entail to cost so much (is this reasonable)? Could using products like corsodyl help clear up the gum disese? Could this be done on the NHS? Also, should I receive a treatment plan in advance of any treatment? Nothing like that was discussed and I really felt pressured. Thanks

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009
Q.
Recently my teeth have become loose due to gum disease. My dentist has suggested what sounds like a system of staples between the teeth to stabalise them. Have you heard of this and if so how successful is it. I am 59 years old.

can i have cosmetic lumineers for my gum recession instead of the surgery

Monday, April 13th, 2009
Q.
I’ve had surgery in the past for gum recession and have a few more teeth to get done. I found it very painful. Can I just have cosmetic lumineers placed over my teeth, instead of going through the surgery. I have good strong teeth, but the gum is receeding.
