My gums have started to recede and it’s really embarrassing. Is there anything that can be done?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have got quite a big smile and I have always thought my teeth were my best feature. I must have been brushing too hard because the gum line has receded on the left side of my mouth. This is especially true for one tooth in the bottom left hand corner of my mouth which is giving me a lot of pain. The gum around my left top front tooth has receded a little and food keeps getting trapped between the tooth and the gum line. This is really embarrassing and is stopping me from going out with friends or eating in front of anyone without having to run to the toilet between every course. I am 25 and I don’t want to have to keep worrying about this. Is there anything that can be done? I don’t have a dentist at the moment as I have a bad experience a few years ago and I’m nervous of going back. Any help would be great.,

I have always had terrible oral hygiene and I am now paying the price. What kind of treatment can I have to get my confidence back?

Monday, August 9th, 2010
Q.
I have always had terrible oral hygiene since a child because I refused to brush my teeth. I am now 21 years old and I am now starting to pay the price. My front tooth has a big chip in it, the next tooth has a huge chip behind it, I’ve recently lost half of of a premolar and I’ve had to remove a molar for also losing half of it. My teeth are also very off-coloured , I have black stuff just where the tooth meets the gum, my bottom gums are starting to get a little black growing on it and I have terrible breath. I really want my smile back so I can meet girls again and be happy without feeling embarrassed about my hygiene. What kind of treatment would I have to undertake to fix my rotting teeth and bad breath?,

Bit of burying head in sand going on, I now do need to deal with the problem, and would like to have a consultation where I can discuss option openly with out feeling embarressed. Always feel rushed with usual dentist and very little time given to discuss. I do have Denplan insurance with current dentist but happy to pay for a consultation to discuss options, with an expert like your self.,
