Hi I have a huge concern with my teeth

Monday, December 1st, 2008
Q.
Hi, I have a huge concern with my teeth. I have recently been confirmed as having enamel hypoplasia. Can you tell me anything about the etioliogy and pathology of this condition??? The destruction to my teeth is universal and quite serious. I am only 27 years old and this is a major problem for my self-esteem. I have seen a dentist specialising in oral diseases and aeasthetic surgical procedures and he sees my only option as having crowns put on all my 28 teeth (Yes! the damage is chronic!) I am just seeking a second (objective!) opinion based on this diagnosis and advice for treatment. Oh, and would the NHS provide this treatment? (Im assuming not). And another compounding issue is that I am a (struggling) student, financially independent from my parents. Speaking hypothetically, how much would this operation cost in the UK (with 3 root canal treatments also)?? Are the new ‘Procera-zirconium’ crowns the best on the market, and which crowns have the greatest resilience and longevity?? Thankyou.

Q.
I have weakened enamel on my teeth. I have read about remineralising treatment available to help strengthen the enamel. I currently use duraphat toothpaste for my problem – would remineralisation help, and how much does it cost?

I need 3 implants in my upper left quadrant

Thursday, November 27th, 2008
Q.
Hello Dr Glaister, I need 3 implants in my upper left quadrant following 2 failed bridges. I’m nervous about the treatment as my problem resulted from poor work of dentists. I’ve been quoted £5200 for 3 Imtec Endure implants in Antigua with a dentist who I believe is trustworthy. An alternative quote is £6500 for 3 Nobel Biocare in London. Can you give me any advice on the difference in systems and best value? Many thanks

I am considering buying a home whitening kit via the internet

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008
Q.
Hello Dr Tennet I am considering buying a home kit via the internet to whiten my teeth. I have one veneer – upper front, and I wanted your advice on whether or not the whitening process will in any way interfere/damage or even make it a different colour to my own teeth? Also, is there a particular type/brand of kit you would recommend? I know that some brands are offering a laser plasma light to accelerate the process – What should I be wary of? Finally would you advice me to do this at home? I can’t really afford dental prices…. I have sensitive teeth and gums and already use a toothpaste for this problem. Many thanks for your time

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008
Q.
I have been advised that i should think about having an inman aligner, my question is can you have them on top and bottom teeth at the same time and because of the cost I have been thinking of looking abroad, should I remain in the uk for treatment or consider abroad? Also googled the appliance for abroad and nothing showing?
