What can be done for tooth that keeps coming loose?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010
Q.
Hi there,i have had to have my front tooth filled twice in the space of a couple of months as it kept going slack then fell out,i got quite a shock when it fell out at the amount of tooth that had been taken away..i changed my dentist as i wasnt happy with this happening all the time and when he refilled it he had to do more drilling due to some decay and said if it falls out again i would need to get a crown! I am worried about this and definately dont want to loose my front tooth, i would also like to know some reasons as to why it keeps coming loose so i can prevent this from happening? thanyou very much.,

Can I have veneers to treat tooth gap?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010
Q.
was wondering if you could advice on how to fix my broken smile? I have aprox 2mm gap between my central incisors and i am missing the left lateral incisor. Xray revealed that my central incisors roots are short, so braces and a bridge was ruled out. My dentist suggested squaring off my cuspid but I think that would look like a cheap bodged job. if I’m to go with veneers, would I have to have all my upper teeth done?? as it would be very expensive and I’ve only recently graduated.. also would this effect the problem with my central incisors roots? as i am scared of them now falling out… but I am so embarrassed of the gap just to live with it. also, I have a blood disorder and have found any serious dental work needed has been referred to the hospital. thank you,

Can I have veneers for darkened teeth?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010
Q.
Dear Mr. Moore, I am writing to you in hope that you can somehow help me. Two months ago I was doing teeth whitening and the results were OK except two teeth (tooth number 4 and number 6 on the left upper jaw). Tooth number 4 is a tooth without nerve (which was taken out 20 years ago) and it was very dark. Tooth number 6 was yellow since it had a filling since I was a child (I am 37 now). My dentist recommended to put porcelain veneers for these two teeth and I accepted. Unfortunately he was not trained well and he scraped almost one third of tooth or even more. So he was not able to put veneers (and also veneers were not made properly) and instead he put the white filling on the front side of these teeth. I am very unhappy with this solution but since I am in Belgrade, Serbia, it seems like dentists here are not so advanced and they are recommending to leave it like this. I have to say that this look OK but I am not happy with this solution and I know that it is just a temporary solution. I know that you can’t tell me without seeing it but I need your advice is it possible to put veneers on these two teeth and can they look naturally as my own teeth? And if not what other options I have? I use to live in London and I would be able to come for a treatment in UK so if this can be done properly in UK I would come for a treatment. Could you please give me advice what to do. Many thanks and kind regards,,

Is toothe whitening causing pain?

Thursday, February 11th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I was booked in for three front teeth out and a bridge put in place. I also asked if my teeth could be whitened and my dentist said yes and quoted me a price for the bridge and tooth whitening to both top and bottom teeth. However the day before my appointment a friend said I should check before my whitening because his dentist had said his own gums were not in good shape for him to whiten. I had gum surgery and all trimmed back about 25 years ago which showed tooth root. This has gradually got worse and my top teeth and gums have been sensitive for years with bleeding and swelling. Nothing I do changes his. The gums look and feel loose in places on the top. When I got to my appointment I mentioned this and asked would the bleaching process not be advisable with these gum pockets and the risk and he agreed with me it would. I am horified that he would have gone through this process if I had not have voiced my concern because he had priced me for bridge and whitening. Consequently I have not gone through with either the bridging or bleaching and am not at all keen to go back to him. I feel he could have caused my immense paid. What do you think? Help !!,
