Should I have a porcelain crown placed on the tooth that had the root canal treatment?

Thursday, April 15th, 2010
Q.
I had a root canal on a front tooth. I is now a little weak and dark. I plan to have lumineers on 6 teeth including the one with the root canal. Should I have a porcelain crown place on that tooth instead due to it’s weakness and slight darkness?,

Do you know what could be causing the pain when I bite down?

Friday, April 9th, 2010
Q.
I recently (4 weeks ago) had a crown and veneer fitted on my front two top tooth for cosmetic reasons. The crown is fine and feels like a normal tooth but the veneer is painful whenever I bite into hard foods. It feels like a shooting pain from the pressure of biting into the food. I went back to my dentist and she said she didn’t know what was causing this but I’ve seen on the Internet it may now have to have a root canal treatment and a new veneer which I really cannot afford. It’s not to do with the bite alignment I don’t thin as that feels fine. Do you know why this might be happening and what might causing it?? Many thanks.,

Can I have my teeth filed down?

Friday, April 9th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I am curious as to whether it is possible to have teeth- for want of a better phrase- filed down. I have an overbite, and while it is not too noticable, i would be interested if perhaps the front 4 of the top row could me shortened slightly, to bring them level witht eh rest of the top row. Regards, Steven,

I would like to have my teeth whitened, will this whiten the colour of my bridge and cap too?

Friday, April 9th, 2010
Q.
Hello, I am looking into having either my teeth bleached or verneers done, the problem is from a young age i suffered with my teeth, they just seemed to decay more than any other people my age even though i never ate things which were bad for my teeth and my dentist could never understand it. At the age of nine i fell and smashed my front teeth i had caps fitted and at the age of 16 my dentist advised for me to have a bridge done. As i have gotten older my teeth have seemed to become stronger but around 4 months ago i changed my dentist and she informed me of some disease/disoreder i have which means i am more prone to tooth decay and discolouration. I don’t smoke or drink and have a very healthy diet, i have my teeth scrapped and polished regularly yet they still look discoloured. I am happy with the shape of my teethbut am desperate to have them whitened, i have enquired into this and been told different things each time. Is it possible for me to have them whitened or will my bridge and cap look two completely different colours. Thankyou,

I would like my teeth to appear straight, would dental veneers help this?

Monday, March 29th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have considerable toothware to several of my teeth, the enamal has worn away and i also have a crowding problem with my bottom teeth, when i enquired about getting my teeth straightened i was told i had a bad crossbite and would need sugery on my jaw as simply using a brace would not move them sufficently, i am not interested in my bite i just want my teeth to appear straight, would veneers be the answer for me and is there a way of overcoming my crowded bottom teeth without braces, many thanks.,
