How can I treat my misaligned teeth and bleeding gums?

Wednesday, September 26th, 2012
Q.

Hi, I had braces about 5 years ago now and never really wore a retainer. I’m 19 and there is 1 tooth at the top that has moved slightly and 6 at the bottom. I don’t really want braces again and also my teeth are in quite bad condition. ( bleeding gums, discolouring) I was thinking about veneers but was wondering what you think would be the best treatment to get my straight teeth back . I didn’t know if I could have only them 7 teeth replaced or if it had to be all of them. Also how do I go about getting this done?

I can’t clean the gums in between my veneers, will this lead to problems?

Monday, September 10th, 2012
Q.

Hi there,

I had veneers done in spain around 6 years ago and they were done on one plate so all four front veneers are as one and I can’t clean the gums in between – do you think this will lead to problems, it already seems to be as the gums are bleeding and slightly receeding but my question is – should I get all four replaced and if so, what would that likely cost? I am worried I will just face many problems and they are the four front ones so its important they look good too šŸ™ can you give me some impartial advice. Does it work to have them all on one plate – if there are already problems will I need to replace them??

thank you in advance!

My gums are black and tearing away from my tooth, what should I do?

Thursday, August 18th, 2011
Q.

hello,

A part of my gums have gone black and have teared away from my tooth. it is hanging on by a small part and bleeds whenever I touch it. It does not hurt but is very noticeable and annoying to say the least. The part that is black is numb and I sam thinking of cutting it to get rid of it as I am very conscious of this. I do have gum disease I know this and have not been to the dentist for many years and a few of my teeth have broken. I am finding it difficult to find the courage to go to a dentist because I am embarrased by the way I have neglected my teeth but I am geting to a point where I dont think I have much time left to correct or help the problem, I would very much like your opinnion on whst I should do next.

Many thanks

Can my broken tooth be saved?

Friday, June 17th, 2011
Q.

My upper back tooth, the one just in front of my wisdom tooth has had fillings, then a root canal. A year after the root canal the front wall of the tooth (just below the gum line)broke away. The back and side walls of the tooth were still fine. My dentist suggested a crown. After working on the tooth for a while he stopped due to my gum bleeding too much. I now have a tempory material over the portion of the tooth that is left and I need to return so he can take another look at it! Do you think the tooth can be saved? If the dentist decides its not possible to fit a crown is there anything left that can be done to save the tooth? Thank you for your time doctor
