How can I resolve the problem of my daughter’s tooth that is going to die?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
Hi, My 7 year old daughter had an accident at school (PE class) today and as a result has knocked out and broken one of her front teeth (upper jaw). We’ve taken her to a dentist who has performed a temporary procedure by glueing the tooth back together again and putting it back in place. His opinion is that the tooth will die over the next week. What is the best way of resolving this problem? Please also give me an idea of costs involved. Thank you very much,

What are the options for me in regards to preventing further gum recession?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
Hi there, I have gum recession on the top and bottom teeth – started mostly at the front but gradually seems to be pulling at the back teeth. My dentist says that it is likely to be caused by harsh brushing- x rays have shown no damage structurally no i assume this means it’s not peridontal disease. I gave up smoking about 12 months ago and have switched to a soft bristled brush to try and prevent this harsh brushing. I am really conscious of the appearance of the receeded gum and want to be able to a – prevent further recession and b – also find out what options are available to try and hide the existing recession. I live in Manchester so if you could suggest any options for me i would be eternally grateful,,

I’m have a large fear of going to the dentist, but my teeth need sorting out. Is there anything that can help?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
I really don’t know how I can make the first step in getting my teeth sorted out. I’ve not been to a dentist for about 12 years and some of the front ones have areas of brown on them although none seem actually loose. They look so unsightly and I’m so ashamed of them as no one I know of my age (early 40s) has teeth that look like mine. What is the easiest first step I could make that would enable me to actually be able to set foot over the threshold of a dental surgery and overcome the fear I have of a first appointment? And secondly in very broad terms if someone hasn’t been to a clinic for so many years – how many appointments would I be likely to need to put things right. Thank you: even writing this email has been a huge step for me.,
