Are veneers the best choice for straightening my crossed, discoloured teeth?

Friday, February 10th, 2012
Q.

Hi, I’m looking into getting cosmetic dentistry but I do not know what the best option is, my main issue is the colour of my teeth and the fact that one of my upper front tooth overlaps the one next to it due to an accident when I was younger which makes my smile lobsided and crooked. Would I need veneers or is it not possible to readjust my teeth alignment so that it does not overlap? I would prefer to keep my two front teeth as they are distinctive to me and they are not a bad shape in themselves its just the overlapping that is the issue, I definitely want veneers on my there teeth though as my canines do not match in size and the rest are also not similar in shape and size. Its really getting me down now, I am 21 and have been thinking of getting my teeth done for 7 years now.

My straight teeth are now crossed over due to gum disease, what can I do?

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011
Q.

Hello Dr Bohara, My teeth which were once straight have moved, the front ones now crossover and their is a gap further back on either ide which is visible when I smile and where the teeth have moved forward and my dentist tells me that this is because I have bone loss and also an element of gum disease. It is difficult to clean my teeth properly now, also difficuilt to eat as I am not used to my teeth as they are.,biting an apple is impossible and I often bite my lip.
Can anything be done to correct this and make me confident to smile again? I am 59 years of age.

Unstable teeth are starting to Cross. Can you assist?

Monday, May 9th, 2011
Q.

Hi

Over the last few years I have noticed that the space between my top two front incisors has gradually been decreasing. Originally I had a sizeable gap, about 4-5mm, this has now decreased to the extent where they are begining to overlap. I am in my early 40’s.

My main question is what is causing the change after all these years of stable teeth, is it something to do with ageing and will it get worse?

Secondly what possible solutions are there? since my teens I have had partially errupted wisdom teeth, as well as an extra partially formed canine on the left (assuming you’re only meant to have one on each side, my siblings both had 2 per side)

Any help, advice or information would be very useful to decide what to do next, thank you.

What can I do to correct teeth that have begun to cross over as my wisdom teeth come through?

Friday, November 26th, 2010
Q.

I had a brace when i was younger to straighten my teeth, since one of my wisdom tooth has come through its pushed my front teeth forward and now they are beginning to cross over at the front, its not major, but im worried if my second tooth comes through it will become worse, what would be the best thing i could do to correct this, and make my teeth straight again.
