Can out of place tooth be fixed with veneers?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have one tooth that I feel ruins my smile. The tooth to the right of my front 2 teeth is slighlty set back and shorther than my other teeth. If I smile on a photograph it can sometime appear that the tooth is missing altogether as it does not run flat with the others. Can this be fixed with 1 single veneer or would all of my front teeth need reconstruction. I am a very nervous patient who does not have lots of money to spare so I would also be interested to know how long/painful the procedure might be and what sort of price I would be looking at. Many thanks.,

Can injured front teeth be straightened and whitened?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hello, i am a 16 year old who had a dental injury while playing football 2 years ago. This involved my front left tooth falling straight out and my front right being extreamely loose. I had an operation to put the tooth back in and root canal treatment also. I have recently found out my front right now needs root treatment as its very sensitive to hot and cold. However, cut to the point, i was wondering if my front teeth can be straightened in any way, my dentist has told me braces could speed up the rate of resortion. He has also told me that by the time i am 40 it will need taking out, this was shocking news to me. What would be the best solution to straightening and is my dentist just being pessimistic?. Thanks. P.S Since my front teeth may soon discolour due to the treatment, what would be the best method of whitening?.,

Can a paint be used to improve colour of silver fillings?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
I have a lot of silver fillings and have been advised that replacing these with white fillings would not be the way forward as these are not as strong. The reason I would prefer white is purely for the cosmetic appearance. My question is – Is there a paint that is suitable that will cover the silver fillings to give the white finish and if so who would I approach ?,
A.
No you can’t paint the filling… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
