Friday, September 4th, 2009
Q.
Hello, i have been to see my dentist today for a filling and he gave me lots of injections which alot of it went down my throat. My tooth could not be filled as the sucker was making it very sensitive. I am worried now as he says he is goin to refer me what does this mean. I spoke to the receptionist and she was not very customer friendly at all. I couldnt have an x ray as it was diggin in my jaw i know a wimp but she was like i seen people gag and be sick i like that not nice. Long winded sorry just worried they will remove my tooth as it very sore when i eat and that sucker hurt even more which the manager said does not make your teeth sensitive. any advice would be grateful

Can you gimme some information about expandable jaw retainer?

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009
Q.
Hi Dr. Moore, I,ve heard of a new type of expandable jaw retainer that you wear behind your teeth to widen a narrow smile. I’m very interested in learning more about this, but I’m having trouble finding any info on it. Is it just too new right now? If you know anything about this, I’ll take all the info/suggestions you have. How long do you think it would have to stay on? How much would it cost? What’s it called? Could any Dentist/Ortho do it? Also, are ALL dentist’s considered cosmetic dentist’s or should I look for one that specailizes in it. Thank You.

You should look for a dentist … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Is there any other alternatives for removable braces?

Friday, August 21st, 2009
Q.
My child has just had a removable brace that she should wear 24hrs a day and she is completely refusing to keep it in her mouth for more than ten minutes. Its a brace that will bring her bottom jaw and teeth forward due to faces she used to pull as a younger child. I am wondering if there is a way to have a similar brace wired inside the mouth? She is autistic so she refuses to wear it more than an average child as it is. Thank you for your time

My jaw is bit to forward can I get it fixed in NHS for free

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I have a cannine tooth stuck up under the roof of my mouth, I was told this when I was 13 & needed fixed braces as my teeth were in very bad shape and over crowded, I wouldn’t go ahead with it as I was terrified of needles and the operation I had to have. Since then, I have been bullied my way out of comprehensive school and had to move schools, but the bullying still continued. I am now 19 and still get nasty remarks made about my teeth, which has destroyed my self esteem badly and even caused depression. So I decided to ask my dentist to refer me to the orthadontist at a hospital. I had xrays taken and he said that the tooth is still there and would need further xrays to see if the tooth that is stuck has done damage to roots of my front teeth and I would need a couple of teeth taken to make room for the cannine tooth that is stuck. And also wear fixed braces for two years. He also said that my jaw was a bit to foward. As I am 19, the braces I will have to pay for myself, but cannot afford them. The orthadontist at the hospital said as I needed alot of work done, I might be able to get them free of charge under the NHS, so I phoned the Local Health Board up, but I don’t think they really understood my problem. Now I am really unsure on what to do, and if I am covered for all of this under the NHS and how would I find out. Thankyou for your time 🙂
