Can a spring retainers fix a small gap in my front teeth

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I had braces about 5 years ago and have recently started to notice some movement. A small gap (0.5mm- 1mm) has developed between the front upper two teeth. All other teeth are fine. Could this gap be closed and then maintained by getting a retainer made? i have heard a spring retainer can be used without the need for fixed braces? what would the cost be for this? Many thanks

Is there any alternatives for veneers for my darkened front tooth

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
Q.
Hi i’ve got a darkened front tooth, that came out about 22 yrs ago, i pushed it back in myself, it has started darkening over a period of some yrs and is now looking bad especially in photographs where it shows up very bad i don’t like smilling for photos anymore. My last visit to my dentist told me that it was a lack of oxygen getting to the tooth that is the problem but he would not take it out or crown it as it was still healthy otherwise. i would love to get it capped or have a veneer over it but how can i go about getting it done, privately would seem the answer but the cost is off putting, are there any other alternatives to this ? how can i persuade my dentist to do the work for me ? any advice would be good
