Can you advise what can be done about a gap between wisdom tooth where food gets stuck?

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011
Q.

I have a small gap between a wisdom tooth and the adjacent tooth where food particles get stuck nearly every time I eat and it is uncomfortable and very irritating. A secondary problem with the same tooth is that food also gets stuck between it and the gum (on the opposite side of the gap). My dentist says the only solution is to extract the wisdom tooth. Can I do anything less dramatic such as dental bonding? I carry a 0.5mm TePe Interdental brush with me that helps keep my sanity but far from solves the problem.

I’m not sure what to do about my inwards-facing two front teeth, what is best?

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011
Q.

I have always had perfect teeth. Never needed braces. I’m 42 & last year, I began noticing my 2 front teeth starting to turn inward causing a shadow or “split” tooth look in pictures & somewhat of a “beaver” look where the outter sides slightly protrude.
All that bothers me is cosmetic appearance. The dentist said to bond, the oroth said trad. braces because Invisaline leaves gaps. Then there are veeners?!
IF I get the bonding can it be removed if my teeth continue to turn & eventually I have to get braces? The ortho sounded like MOST of my forward crowding was done?! Help!

Is bonding better than veneers at covering a stained tooth?

Monday, February 21st, 2011
Q.

I have a stained front tooth and am considering having veneers but I have been advised to have bonding instead. What is bonding and would this help a stained tooth. If so is it better than veneers?

I look forward to your reply.

The white bonding on my teeth doesn’t match the colour of my teeth, what should I do?

Monday, February 21st, 2011
Q.

I recently had five of my back teeth on the bottom row of teeth from metal to white however the white does not really match the colour of my existing teeth and there are bits of black around the edges. I got this treatment through my dental practice and paid over £1000. My dentist has since left the practice and I requiree root treatment on one of the teeth that the filling got replaced but the colour again is not matching my existing tooth.This work was done by another dentist who joined the practice but I have not been able to establish a rapport with and I am really unhappy with the work I have had done.

I got braces because I have a baby canine in my upper jaw, I hate them, how long will I have to wear them?

Tuesday, February 1st, 2011
Q.

Hi, I am an eighteen year old student. I just got braces about a month ago. My teeth are straight. I had to get the braces because I have still have baby canine in my upper teeth. They want to bring down the adult tooth. I have to get a gold chain on, the Expose and bond procedure, in about three weeks. I am really nervous about the surgery and how long it will take for the adult tooth to come down after the exposure. The big problem that worries me is that my adult tooth is horizontal – lucky me. How long will this take? And really how long will it take for my braces to be off? I have straight teeth which is upsetting. I thought I got to be one of the lucky ones that never had to get them. And never thought I would need them because of my straight teeth. But now I get them for my university years. Im really struggling with just having braces for 1 month. I really don’t like them. I have no confidence anymore and its hard for me to smile. Everyone says its worth it in the end, but to me this whole process is disheartening and stressful. I just really want to know if it will ultimately take three years to pull down my horizontal canine tooth and get the braces off.

What can I do about bonding that has become discoloured?

Friday, December 3rd, 2010
Q.

I am a 47 year old female. I had peridontal surgery 22 years ago and am fortunate to still have my teeth, however I am not happy with the looks of them. Some years back my dentist bonded them to make the more stable. The bonding has discolored from the color of my teeth and no longer looks very good. I have had it redone a couple times but he says it doesn’t adhere well after the first time because of not having the porous tooth surface to adhere too. I do have a lot of bone loss, but it has held its own for all these years and when I smile you really can’t see that. Guess the discoloration is my main concern. He talked about a partial but I’m not ready to give up my teeth yet. Thanks
