Can a smile makeover restore my partner’s confidence?

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010
Q.
hi, my partner of 15 years suffers with very bad teeth. Basically the NHS Dentist says there is nothing they can do for him, as he has all treatments, bridge work, crowns blah blah…. I know his confidence suffers as he always talks with his mouth closed and never smiles!! It has effected him very badly as he is now on anti depressants. Please can you e-mail me some info and possible prices for a full smile makeover. He was thinking going to Hungary or Poland, as money is tight. I would prefer him to have work done in the UK. He so deserves to have a beautiful smile!!,

Should I have teeth removal after being diagnosed with periodontal disease?

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010
Q.
Although I have a plaque free mouth, I have developed periodontal disease quite severely. I see the hygienist every three months, but I know that the disease has been spotted far too late and I have severe bone loss on at least 6 teeth. I am now at a cross road and although my dentist wants to continue with the three month hygiene regime, my quality of life is very poor, i.e great sensitivity, difficulty in eating and my mouth is permantly thobbing. I would like to loose the 4 molars which are causing me problems, together with one premolar and in incisive which although healthy do not have any bone to support them anymore. what are my options? and how much would it cost for 6 implants, bone and gum restoration? Also how can the denist not have spotted the severity of the problem as I always had 6 month check up previously? I am really upset that find myself in this situation as I have always taken care of my teeth, PS I am 43.,
