Treatment for missing teeth that are causing me misery?

Thursday, January 14th, 2010
Q.
Hi there, I am 21 years old and had braces when I was around 19. I used to live in Spain and had them put on and checked rugularly when I lived there. After about 9 months of having them on I moved back to London and therefore didnt really complete the procedure as its was hard getting to Spain because of work etc. I had 2 teeth removed so there are two large gaps on my top gum. My bottom teeth never had a brace as theyre alright, I had it basically to push my teeth back into my mouth. So now my teeth are a little more pushed in but Ive got these two big gaps. I am really uphappy and it’s really affecting my life more than anybody could imagine. I dont want to smile or laugh I hate having my picture taken and am scared people will see I’ve got missing teeth. I work full time but doubt I’ll be able to afford the procedure to fix my teeth. What do you advise? Many thanks,,

Can boyfriend get cosmetic treatment through NHS?

Thursday, January 7th, 2010
Q.
Hello Dr Patel, i am writing this on behalf of my boyfriend. My boyfriend was a bar manager two years ago and he was attacked two years ago by a drunk customer who consequently broke two ribs and knocked out my boyfriends two front teeth. At the time his teeth couldnt be saved and the company he worked for promised they would pay, however they went bust and this never came to fruition. He has spent two years never smiling and is painfully self concious of his missing teeth and has knocked his self confidence. We have tried to see if we could get it done privately and were quoted £3000 pounds for the work that need to be done which is way beyond us. Is there any chance the NHS will do this for free at all? or is it considered as cosmetic surgery. I look forward to your response Thankyou Rebecca,

Can I have silver fillings to be replaced with composite materials in molar tooth?

Monday, November 2nd, 2009
Q.
I thought of going to have my silver fillings to be replaced with composite materials in one of my molar tooths. But some of the current silver fillings stick to my gums, how does the dentist going to remove it? Will it cause my gums to bleed during the drilling? I am concern that the harmful silver particles will get into my gums.
