Is there a way to coat my teeth to protect my enamel

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
I have no enamel on my teeth and find it very frustrating when I smile that my teeth are yellow,is there a way to brighten them without distroying them? I also am going through having every tooth filled as due to lack of enamel, I have a lot of cavities, but the fillings do not always stay in and have to be replaced, is there a way to coat my teeth to protect them as the enamel would normally? Thank you!

I had my front teeth capped could teeth whitening affect them

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
I have in the past been told I brush my teeth too hard which makes the gums receed. Today I have had several filled in and they look awful. My teeth are yellow in colour and the fillings are white, stick out, and I just want to cry. Was this because I am an NHS patient? I have asked before at my dentist about tooth whitening and was told to buy a pack from boots, which didn’t seem to have much effect as my two front teeth were capped 24 years ago when I broke them? Help

Is it normal to get pain and aching or strange sensations after crown fitted

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
Q.
I had a crown fitted a couple of years ago on a bottom molar. I suffered a lot of pain shortly after it was fitted and at an emergency appointment with a dentist it was necesary for a hole to be put in crown to relieve pressure caused by bleeding.The hole was of course filled afterwards. The crown is still sensitive from time to time – I get pain or aching or strange sensations which lasts for a few days and then it settles. Is this normal and if not what is the likely cause?
