Am I too old for cosmetic dentistry i dont want to wear dentures

Thursday, July 24th, 2008
Q.
Dear Dr. Caplan, I am in my late 70’s and still have my own teeth with the exception of some back ones. I also have some crowns. I want to avoid having to wear dentures as my teeth gradually deteriorate and wonder if I should have some cosmetic treatment now so I will never need dentures. What is your opinion on this please? Thank you.

using super glue to stick my bridge back gives me a trout pout

Thursday, July 24th, 2008
Q.
I had my three teeth at the front bridged, which was fine, but it only lasted for about a year, the spikes broke ,they are still in my gums now. i am using super glue gel to stick them back in, my dentist went back to his own country(Sweden)I saw another Dentist and was told i would have to pay £1175. to have another bride done, as i receive disability allowance this is impossible to find, or i can have a plate made free, this is something i am not keen on as a few years ago i was told by a dentist that he thinks i will be one of these people that will be unable to have false teeth, i don’t know why may be it is because i have a very small mouth (yes it is true i have honest)i really don’t know what to do other than keep on with the super glue, which gives me a trout pout as my lips and some time tongue swell up any way thank you

I want a cosmetic denture like in 10 years younger

Sunday, July 13th, 2008
Q.
Over the last 10 months or so, I have lost all but 3 of my bottom teeth. (Im 39). The denture I have been supplied with not only looks awful, as the teeth are smaller and shorter than my own, but is very uncomfortable, loose and ill fitting. I asked my dentist about a cosmetic denture, meaning the type you see on tv shows such as 10 yrs younger. He quoted a cost of approx £300, which I find hard to believe. Is he thinking of the same thing as me, or would I need to see a specialist to get what I am looking for? Also what sort of cost would I be looking at realistically?

My teeth are falling out I smoke and I am seeing a periodontist

Sunday, July 13th, 2008
Q.
I have had periodontal disease for several years now and despite seeing a periodontist for treatment, nothing has really improved. I have lost several teeth and know I will lose more as several are now very loose. I have been looking for info and options on the net and REALLY DO NOT WANT DENTURES! I’m thinking of implants but realise the bone density is an issue but also learnt about bone grafts.If my teeth are removed and I need grafts how long would it be between treatments and before I could possibly have the implants. I’m sorry I smoke – would this prevent this treatment? What treatment could you recommend? I can’t eat properly and certainly don’t smile and I’m finding this situation very depressing. Many thanks for your reply.

My front tooth is loose due to gum disease should I have a Maryland bridge or denture

Thursday, July 10th, 2008
Q.
Hi, I have a front loose tooth due which I am about to lose due to Gum disease. I have been offered the option of replacing the tooth with a denture (dont want this) or a Maryland bridge. Only problem with the bridge is that I have read that the metal can show through the teeth & that a gap may be visible due to gum shrinkage. In the long term I would like an implant to replace this loose tooth but have been told that the gum diseases in that area has to clear before an implant is possible. Would you advise me to go with a temporary denture or the maryland bridge, how long would you recommend i wait before going for an implant?. Thanks

If the tooth is infected by th… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
