I have bleeding gums on my bottom teeth

Monday, January 12th, 2009
Q.
I have bleeding gums on my bottom teeth and have noticed that in between two teeth my gum feels soft and is not firmly attached to my two teeth. The gum is covering the two teeth slightly more than before. I have also noticed a build up of plaque on these two teeth, behind at the back. I have made an appointment but am worried I don’t know what to expect? Can you help ?

I’m a 26 year old guy a couple of months ago my dentist told me I have gum disease

Friday, December 5th, 2008
Q.
Hi Dr I’m a 26 year old guy a couple of months ago my dentist told me I have gum disease which really shocked me, main reasons been I look after my teeth so much I don’t smoke and as far as I’ve found out its not in my family history. Only 3 months after the dentist informed me of this I had to get a tooth at the back of the right side of my mouth taken out which my dentist told me was due to my gum disease I’m now really afraid now that I’ll be left with no teeth by my 40s which would be awful for me as I really take pride of my teeth and it’s always the first thing I notice in person. I’ve only just had my orthodontic braces removed 2 years ago and now this. What can I do to stop this gum disease or prevent it and what is the worst case scenario???? Many

my wisdom tooth is loose australia

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008
Q.
Hi Doctor, and I am a single Mum two. I live in Melbourne Australia, I went to the dentist for the first time in years (like most people, I simply could not afford it) and was told I had gum disease, my lower back tooth nest to my wisdom tooth is loose and he also said I have it on the opposite side up the top. I have been flossing daily and and using a mouth wash, will I loose this tooth eventually or can I save it and the ones surrounding it if I keep up great hygene? I’m never going to be able to afford implants in the future, please help, I am really frightened. Thank you so much for your time. Kind Regards

I have gum disease through thumb sucking can I gave cosmetic dentistry

Monday, July 14th, 2008
Q.
Hi, I’m 23 years old. I sucked my thumb until I was 13. My top teeth were pushed out and my bottom ones were pushed in. My bottom right 1 tooth has even turned 90 degrees so it\’s perpendicular to the others! Because of this, the dentist told me I have pockets in my gums they harbour more bacteria than normal people. 3 years ago, I started suffering from gum disease. I\ve since had 4 gum infections, 2 abscesses, 3 teeth extracted and I now have another broken tooth. My gums are wearing away too. Most of my problems are due to the fact I didn’t see a dentist from the ages of 16 and 20. I\ve started going regularly again but I’m distressed at all the work that needs doing. Is there anything that can be done for me with cosmetic dentistry? I think I need braces to start with to straighten my teeth, but then I worry that they’re beyond repair because I have missing teeth. Please help me as it has had massive effects on my confidence and self esteem as I can\’t smile or even talk properly as I’m so scared of anyone seeing my teeth.

I am looking for a good reputable dentist and hygienist

Saturday, June 28th, 2008
Q.
Despite being a regular visitor to the dentist, over the years I have endured considerable dental treatments, some of which have been as a result of poor dentistry. As I approach my late 40\’s I am considering cosmetic dentistry to improve the appearance of my teeth but feel I first of all need a good regular dentist that I can trust and who will help me take good care of my teeth. My children have fortunately not suffered in the same way as I have and I am keen to ensure they are also receiving good quality dental advice. Other than searching through dentists registered with the BDA, is there any way I can find a very good reputable dentist and hygenist who will be able to provide appropriate dental advice/treatment to myself and my family. I am prepared to travel outside my immediate area if this is necessary.
