The front tooth next to the last one is now black my nhs dentist cant give me a crown is it right

Monday, July 6th, 2009
Q.
I’m 37 years old and suffer with gingivitis which has weakened my gums. 6 months ago I had a fall and knocked my front tooth out.. I now have a denture in place. The front tooth next to the lost one is now black from the damage and is very obvious as my natural teeth were crooked and the denture is now straight. I asked my nhs dentist if I could have the black one crowned to even up the look of my teeth and he told me he wouldn’t do it on the nhs as it would only be for cosmetic reasons. I am on a low income and so cannot afford a private crown.. my dentist told me that the only option would be to have the tooth removed and a denture in place. Can this be right? I really want to keep my tooth but I’m so self conscious of my smile now.

My 13 yr old has a large white mark on her front tooth what can be done to fix the problem

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009
Q.
My 13 year old daughter has a large white mark on her front tooth. She is very self conscious of this and people often say to her that she has something stuck on her tooth. It covers about 40% of just one tooth. What is the best way to get rid of this mark? Our dentist was quite dismissive and said she should wait until she’s 18 to do anything, but didn’t really tell us what could be done?

Hi there,im 26 and i have always had an overbite however it has got worse through the years and is now roughly i would say 9-10mm, and i also have crooked overlapping teeth on the bottom. however i was wondering if the nhs would be able to fix this or would i have to go private? im not sure if they would say it was purely cosmetic, although i do get pain in my back molars and often bite my bottom lip with my top teeth. any advice is really appreciated. thanks

i have narrow arch and my overbite is too big i know i could not afford any ideas?

Friday, June 19th, 2009
Q.
Hi there, I have always been very unhappy about my teeth and really wish I had got a brace when I was younger. My profile from the side id aful and I have been told I have a ‘narrow arch’ and that my over-bite is too big. Many dont see the issue with my teeth however it is something that I am really paranoid about. I know I could not afford cosmetic dentistry at this time and cannot seem to get accepted for any finance plans, Was just curious if you had any ideas? Thank you
