My tooth kind of cracked and now there are tiny holes in my front teeth help me please?

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009
Q.
Well this is just embarrassing.. okay so a couple years ago i got hit in the face and my tooth kind of cracked. but it wasn’t as bad so i never bothered to get it fixed. it was tiny. barely noticeable. then throughout the years i’ve been going through some hardships. my parents divorced. my father died. i was pressured into a life of drugs. which ruined my teeth even more. stupidly, i smoked pills. literally. and did it for about a year. i smoked ciggarettes and marijuana for a couple years straight. i stopped long ago. but now my front two teeth are cracked down the middle and really black. and decayed and it is moving because now there are tiny holes forming in my other front teeth slowly, day by day. i have no insurance and i am a full time student paying for my own classes. i suffer severe tooth pains everyday. i cant sleep or eat. this has been going on for about two years now. help me please?

Ive a hairline fracture in my front tooth and will my retainer put pressure on them

Friday, July 17th, 2009
Q.
Hello, I had braces 3 years ago, and i still wear the retainer a few nights a week, I recently had an accident and have a hairline fracture/crack in my front tooth. It is difficult to see, you can only see it in certain light, I am worried that if i wear my retainer it will put pressure on the crack and cause it to get worse, it is a vertical crack going from the top to the bottom. It isn’t sore and my dentist had a great deal of trouble finding it. I have been to the dentist and was told not to worry, but I am not sure about wearing my retainer. I haven’t worn it for a little while because of this, and a few of my teeth have moved a little, I don’t really know what to do! Any advice would be appreciated.

My teeth chip crack and disintegrate very easily. can i have cosmetic surgery now advice pls

Thursday, July 16th, 2009
Q.
I have severe dental problem, and was recently seen in hospital and had six teeth surgically removed. i’ve been told a further two or three may also have to be removed, with many others requiring permenant filings ( at the moment i have temporary ones in place) and root canal treatment. I have unsightly gaps where the teeth used to be, discolouration and decay, my teeth chip, crack and disintergrate very easily. my dentist cannot conclude how it is happening, and the high flouride content toothpaste i have been prescribed does not seem to be helping at all. Although i need all the teeth stabalised and repaired, i am interested in cosmetic dentistry. i am a 24 yr old female and would be devestated to loose my teeth, however my dentist expressed concerns that cosmetic surgery could not be carried out on such unstable teeth. Is there any further information or advise you could offer me?

One of my root canal teeth cracked due to hard bite so should i go for dental crowns advice

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I had root canal treatment on a molar tooth a year ago and a subsequent infection which settled down with antibiotics. The tooth is cracked and my dentist has suggested I now have it crowned as this is likely to prolong the life of the tooth. However, I have noticed that the tooth sometimes feels slightly uncomfortable to hard pressure (ie certain foods) when I am eating although I’m not sure why this might be as the tooth is no longer live. I have been told previously that my bite on that side is rather hard which is why the tooth cracked in the first place. I was wondering if you could advise me what the likely explanation for this is and if it is safe to have it crowned? If I mention this when I go for the crown is it likely that my dentist will x ray the tooth first to see if there is any infection present? Also in your expert opinion, assuming the tooth is suitable to be crowned, is that the best treatment for it to preserve the tooth? Many thanks in advance for your advice.

About 2 years ago i had root canal treatment on a cracked tooth and the tooth was then filed down and a crown put over it. Everything has been fine up until now but now when i try to chew on it i hurts very much and the pain takes a while to go away. Im just wondering what has occured to suddenly have brought on this pain.
