Hello. I cannot get registered with a dentist and haven’t for several years. I have no teeth and I need to have some false ones but I can’t seem to find a dentist to help me. Please, you are my last resort. How can I get some false teeth? I have tried everywhere in Shrewsbury but no one is taking on new patients. I cant eat my favourite foods because I cant chew things like steak or liver or pork chops, I feel like crying.
Hi. I have lost all my top teeth along with my confidence. I would be okay with false teeth but is there a more realistic option such as dental implants? Also, I feel ashamed of my situation and would like to know the best way to approach it. I also have a huge fear of dentists and needles etc. This stems from being a child and treated poorly by a dentist who removed healthy teeth for no reason and performed other unnecessary work.
Hello Dr Hughes. I have three upper teeth on a partial denture, and I really like them. However, I have a tooth on the upper left side that is causing me bother because when I smile the gum is very exposed, making the tooth look smaller and it doesn’t match up with my new teeth. Do you think I could I get it removed and have a bigger false one added to my denture to hide the exposed gum and make it match up with my teeth on the denture? The false teeth are two front and the one next to them is on the right side. I really don’t like the exposed gum on the left side, what can I do about this? Thank you.
Hello Dr Moore. I need some information. When I smile you cannot see my top set of teeth, they are too small and it really annoys me the way they look. I just want a nice, normal smile. Can veneers be made a little longer to show a set of nice white teeth smile or would false teeth be my only option? If dental implants are my only choice, could you tell me how much they will set me back? I hope you can help me with this. Thank you for listening, I look forward to your reply.
Hello Dr Hughes, I’d like your helpful advice. I have three teeth missing left side upper and two right side upper. I wear a denture which covers both sides. Looks perfect which is very important to me.
Is it possible however to have a wire fitting on both sides of the missing teeth, attaching the false teeth next to the good teeth thereby eliminating the need for a dental plate?
I would much prefer this as I am sure it would make eating so much easier to accomplish.
Thank you.
Hello Dr Moore,
I have a set of 3 false teeth at the front of my mouth (top set). And also I have one to the left side and one at the very back on the right side. I currently have the standard dentures with all the plastic which I really hate and I’d like to have this replaced with something else but unsure of what is available. What would you recommend and also what sort of cost would I be looking at if I had them replaced with something else? Thank you for your time and helpful advice in advance.
Hi
I have quite large front teeth which are fine but my gums are receding quite a lot which i revealing more and more tooth. I know ways to slow down the gum receding but am looking for permanent ways to make my front teeth look smaller. Could they perhaps be removed and replaced with false ones or perhaps a bridge would work? I don’t particularly want proper false teeth just ones that are slightly smaller.
Not sure if this is even possible but would appreciate your comments on the matter. Many thanks for your time.
Hello, I wonder if you could advise how do you deal with a person who has progressively receding gums and does not want to have dentures? I am 56 and one of my teeth at the front is already quite loose where my gum has receded so badly, I also have crowns at the top. All I can remember of my mums teeth from being a young girl is that she used to take them out every night and they looked false, just like the name. Help, I don’t want the same. Thanks
IM 19 AND IM AFRIAD THAT BY THE TIME IM 25 I WILL LOSE ALL MY TEETH. MY FRONT TEETH IS VERY LOOSE AND IS A BIT LONGER THAT THE OTHER BECAUSE ITS SLOWLY FALLING OUT. THE DOCTORS SAID THAT I HAVE MASSIVE BONE LOST. AND THERE IS LITTLE THAT THEY CAN DO. ALSO ONE OF MY BOTTOM TEETH ARE ALSO LOOSE, THE DENTIST PLACED A BRACKET IN TO HOLD MY TEETH TOGETHER. I WAS WONDERING IF I WAS ABLE TO GET FALSE TEETH TO REPLACE THE TWO TEETH THAT ARE LOOSE. IM NOT VERY CONFIDENT IN MY SMILE DUE TO MY SITUATION. IF I CAN GET THIS FIXED I WOULD BE A LOT MORE HAPPIER. ALSO WOULD IT BE COSTLY TO HAVE THIS PROCEDURE DONE? I NEED HELP ANY ADVICE?
