My 3 year old son’s tooth has to be extracted, is there any way it can be saved?

Friday, August 6th, 2010
Q.
Hello Dr Solanki, I have a son who is 3 years & 2 months old. Over the past couple of weeks I have noticed his front tooth turning grey. We visited our NHS dentist yesterday and he explained that this tooth would have to be extracted within the near future. I am very distressed by this as I am aware that he will then have an unsightly gap until he is 7 or 8 years old and his adult tooth emerges. I am wondering if, via private treatment, this tooth can be saved. If not, are there any cosmetic procedures that would be suitable for a child this age following an extraction? Many thanks in advance for your help. Kind regards,,

The tooth that had the root canal treatment is now decaying, what treatment options are available to me?

Thursday, June 17th, 2010
Q.
I have a front tooth which was replanted 30 years ago following an accident. It has had root canal treatment but is now decaying and my NHS dentist is about to either recommend a crown (NHS) or implant (private treatment). I am currently pregnant to must wait for the xray. What is the protocol on getting a second opinion and exploring the possibility of an implant specialist doing the work rather than my existing NHS dentist? If I consult a private clinic what would be the cost of a consultation and necessary xrays etc – and could I ask my own dentist for copies of x-rays?,

Should I have my wisdom tooth extracted before I go on holiday?

Friday, June 4th, 2010
Q.
I went to the dentist yesterday and he said I should have my last remaining top right wisdom tooth removed because it is decaying and he said there is black stuff and plaque on that won’t come off. He did say he could fill it if I wanted but I am not sure. It is not causing me any pain at the moment. If i do have it extracted, I was thinking of leaving it until the summer holidays but would it best to have it removed 8 days before I fly or wait until I come back?,
A.
I would wait until you get bac… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I’m in a lot of pain but I can’t have my tooth extracted till June, what can I do?

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010
Q.
My dentist has referred me to the hospital for an extraction due to decay. However, he recently worked on a tooth next to one due for extraction. This work has put the decayed tooth into orbit! I have been in extreme pain and the dentist has prescribed penicillin. My hospital appointment is not until June! He isn’t keen on extracting the tooth unless I have it done privately so that he has enough time. What can I do? I am in pain. Thank you,
A.
