Hello Dr, I Would Like To Get An Implant, Can You Tell Me How Long They Last?

Wednesday, September 25th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Bohara. I have a front tooth missing and I’ve wanted to know how much it will cost to have treatment to close the gap.

I was born like that without the tooth and for cosmetic reasons I was thinking of filing that gap in as it is starting to bother me. Do you know also know whether it is a good idea to do this and if I was to get this treatment and fill the gap how long can the implanted tooth take before it gets loose as I am thirty years old and worry that I may have to pay for a new one.

Thank you. I really hope to hear from you soon and maybe also to make an appointment for the procedure.

Can I Become A Cosmetic Dentist?

Thursday, April 11th, 2013
Q.

Hi there, i’m a 17 year old student doing A levels..and believe it or not, i have always wanted to be dentist. Trouble is, though my GCSE’s qualify and i have alot of dental related work experience and hopefully* predicted A level grades, i am really struggling with getting the predicted A level grades. This means i may not be able to do dentistry at university. Well, i have 3 Plan B’s (which are starting to look like plan A’s) 1-get a degree in dental hygiene or therapy instead of dentistry 2-do an apprenticeship as a dental nurse 3-sit and sulk in a cave..But my true heart leads towards cosmetics. Is there any way i can become a cosmetic dentist if i opt for the hygiene and therapy degree rather than the dentistry degree?

Why does my son suffer from bad tooth decay if he has good dental hygiene?

Friday, December 3rd, 2010
Q.

Hi
My son had bad tooth decay as an infant and lost several teeth.I cleaned his teeth twice a day and he ate and drank an average amount of sweet stuff.He`s14 now and his teeth are rotting again. I’ve had endless arguments with my dentist as to the cause of such decay when he really does look after his teeth.My other 2 children`s teeth are perfect and always have been.They are the ones that I always have to remind to clean their teeth.My son has strange markings on his teeth which have always been there and were also on his milk teeth.
Please advise on any causes because I will not accept this is down to mere neglect.We are out of our minds with this.
