my daughter has lingual behind her teeth hidden braces at the top,she also has 4crowns two top middle and one either side,her braces have only been in 10days and already her two side crowns have fine cracks along the bottom,does this mean she is not suitable for braces,and should just get new crowns an teeth whitened to make her smile nice, as she is also meant to be having bottom braces fitted soon,but if the top crowns cannot hold a brace without crumbling,not much point in wasting her money,she is 40yrs old,what is your opinion please.

My crown doesn’t match the opposite side, what do i do now?
Wednesday, July 13th, 2011Hi Dr Verma, i recently had a root canal and crown placed over one of my front teeth I had never had any dental work like that done before,because of the fact i have had braces for most of my life. after i’d had it done the dentist and the assistance told me it looked great, so i get home and i notice it’s not quite right so i go back to the dentist to tell them about some problems with the crown (it’s obvious that it is too short and a little whiter in comparison to the opposite tooth) and now i have to pay to get the opposite tooth crowned! i feel very embarrassed, hurt, and over all depressed over this situation iam in now, i just finally want a perfect smile. please help, what do i do now?
My tooth is really sensitive after having a crown fitted, what should I do?
Friday, June 17th, 2011Hello Doctor,
Can my broken tooth be saved?
Friday, June 17th, 2011My upper back tooth, the one just in front of my wisdom tooth has had fillings, then a root canal. A year after the root canal the front wall of the tooth (just below the gum line)broke away. The back and side walls of the tooth were still fine. My dentist suggested a crown. After working on the tooth for a while he stopped due to my gum bleeding too much. I now have a tempory material over the portion of the tooth that is left and I need to return so he can take another look at it! Do you think the tooth can be saved? If the dentist decides its not possible to fit a crown is there anything left that can be done to save the tooth? Thank you for your time doctor
How long after root canal treatment are you fitted with a crown?
Monday, June 6th, 2011 Hi Doctor,
I was assessed by my dentist and
I have to undergo root canal treatment on one of my lower tooth. My dentist has told me the procedure and that the crown is put on within a few weeks after treatment but I went to get a second opinion at a private dentist and he told me the permenant crown is put on 6 months to a year after the initial treatment so that they can check if procedure has gone well and no bacteria is infected the area. What would be usual way to do root canal?
Thank You
Can a back tooth support a neighbouring false tooth?
Tuesday, May 31st, 2011can a metal very back tooth crown support a neighbouring false tooth w out a bridge to other tooth?i know the best thing is a bridge but to save cutting another healthy will one crown be strong enough? the missing tooth is second from d back so it will be tooth colour but the very back tooth can be metal because it cannot be seen then i will get partial dentures attached to the bottom very back tooth so the opposing tooth to the false tooth will be a denture many thanks for you time
I have sjogrens syndrome and my dentist tells me I need to have dentures. Other options?
Tuesday, May 31st, 2011Hello doctor, I have sjogrens syndrome and now have a mouthful of crowns all of which are shifting and my dentist has said that in the near future they will have to be replaced. I do have one real tooth left which he is going to have to completely remove this month. The only options he has given me is a mouthful of dentures, which horrifies me at aged 39! My dentist thinks that implants will not work because of the sjogens and because periodically I have to take steroids. I just wondered what are your thoughts and experiences on implants and sjogrens patients? thank you for your time
