Is there any treatment available for teeth that are in bad condition?

Thursday, March 18th, 2010
Q.
Hi, My Teeth are in a pritty bad condition since I was a child, I do go to the dentist and had lots of fillings, fillings also in my front teeth at the top but they become discoloured and i get them replaced but it doesnt look good, I lost my smile a long time ago and as the years has passed by they seem to be getting worse dispite im trying to look after them the best i can all the time, i no longer smile showing my teeth anymore and have lost alot of confidence, i won’t even aply for jobs im intrested in because of my smile. I have mentioned whitening in the past to my dentist before i new anything about veneers but he explained that whitening would not work cause of all the fillings i have there, so now i have read all about veneers do you think it would be a option for me, my bottom front teeth are fine so would they just need whitening, my top two front teeth have slightly gone crocked (because of the drilling n fillings there i think) would i need additional treatment on them or would veneers help that. Big problem i have is that i will only go to my dentist as I no he’s seen all my teeth before, im so ashamed to go to a different dentist to get advise or treatment, u may not beable to answer any of my questions as you have not seen them but I felt it was worth a try in asking for your advice anyway, thanks for your time,
A.

Should I get two implant or just have bridge done?

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010
Q.
I am a female, 21 years of age. I have a hereditary problem where I have missing permanent teeth under 6 of my deciduous teeth. Before my orthodontist put braces on me, he pulled out 6 of my deciduous teeth as through as X ray, he could tell that they were weak and the roots were not really firm/stable. 1 deciduous tooth was pulled out in the top right part of my mouth, and another 1 at the bottom right part of my mouth. Both of them are at the same location if you count from the mid line of my mouth. 2 other teeth were pulled out from the top left part of my mouth and another 2 right below it, on the lower jaw. My doctor told me that I have to get 2 implants put in on the upper and lower left side of the jaw (where 4 teeth were pulled out) as the gap cannot be closed by just braces. Well, technically it is possible but the midline would shift, causing my smile to be ugly. In conclusion, I want to know if it is worth investing so much money in the 2 implants. Should I just have a bridge done? My doctor says it will be a waste as the rest of my teeth are so perfect. What should I do? My braces will be off in July and I do not want to have the 2 gaps empty for long. Alternatively, would it be ok if I asked my doctor to close up the gap in the lower jaw and have an implant in the upper jaw? Would my teeth look weird? Please advice. Thanks a million.,

Any advice about traumatic healing process after implant treatment?

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010
Q.
Hi Dr Caplan My husband has recently (a week ago) began the process of a dental implant. His first procedure was quite traumatic for him (hates dentists, rarely visits them and I talked him into having a dental implant). He has had a false tooth (in the front) for 30 years and has continuously restuck the tooth to the plate with superglue – it’s time for something new!!!). During the procedure he felt as if the dentist was actually hammering the bone – the bone actually shattered and he now has a mouth full of stitches and is in constant pain as well as experiencing bad headaches. We are Australian expats living in Saudi Arabia and are now wondering whether we have done the right thing in having this procedure done here. He has been given a false tooth and told that it will take 3-4 months before it can be worked on again. Any advice??? ,
