Is multiple surgery available and how much does it cost?

Thursday, March 18th, 2010
Q.
I wear braces and have done for three years. My teeth are straight and I want the braces off now. Thing is, my wisdom tooth (upper left) has come through and is causing a lot of pain by rubbing my teeth. Other gaps have been caused because my orthodontist takes so long between appointments. I’m also terrified of dentists 🙁 Is there a way i can get the braces off, teeth whitened and wisdom teeth out all at once? And what if I have a bad credit history but can now afford to make repayments?,
A.
I’m not sure if you should hav… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Can out of place tooth be fixed with veneers?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have one tooth that I feel ruins my smile. The tooth to the right of my front 2 teeth is slighlty set back and shorther than my other teeth. If I smile on a photograph it can sometime appear that the tooth is missing altogether as it does not run flat with the others. Can this be fixed with 1 single veneer or would all of my front teeth need reconstruction. I am a very nervous patient who does not have lots of money to spare so I would also be interested to know how long/painful the procedure might be and what sort of price I would be looking at. Many thanks.,

Friday, February 12th, 2010
Q.
As a child my front teeth stuck out and my carers were advised by professionals to remove one tooth form each side inorder for my front teeth to spread out.
