Q.
Hi there I have crooked front teeth – one sticks out and is slightly turned and the other is in towards my mouth, making the sticking out tooth look worse.

The crown continues to break off the implant

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009
Q.
My husband eye tooth brook off, and since it was so far down, his dentist advise us to have it removed and an implant done. He has had that done, and the crown continues to break off the implant. He is not eating anything hard when it breaks off. This last time was a sandwich. The third replacement was only three weeks ago. His dentist blames him, or that the cement is not good enough. I don’t understand why he is having these problems. My top four teeth are all crowned and I have had them for 10 years and not one problem, and I eat apples, and all kinds of hard items.

How do I reduce the length of my teeth

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009
Q.
Hello, i am interested on getting some cosmetic dentistry work done in the coming months – Basically i am unhappy with the length on my central and lateral incisors, ive always been of this opinion, i had braces when i was younger, and am very happy with the position of the teeth. They are just too big in a length way!I am now 24 and want to get it sorted out, is there any way i can have them filed down maybe 2mm, i don’t think i need veneers, they seem expensive. I think it would greatly help my self esteem. If i can get this done what do i inquire about to a cosmetic dentist? and would you have a vague idea of how much this procedure would cost? Cheers.
