is there any other options for having false teeth other than dental implant or dental bridges

Monday, May 4th, 2009
Q.
I receive my dental treatment from an NHS dentist and whilst I am happy with the treatment I receive from him, he isn’t really helping me with a difficult decision I have. I have a lot of crowns already but also have a three tooth bridge on the upper right side of my mouth. The problem is that the bridge is coming loose and although my dentist has put it back in for me it has come loose again. He says that I only have two options: 1. To have a 5 tooth bridge which I feel would compromise two good natural teeth 2. To have have the bridge removed and what is left of my natural teeth underneath removed a plate with three false teeth. I am a very nervous dental patient and dread the thought of any treatment at all so implants would be out of the question for me as I couldn’t endure the treatment What I want to know is are these the only two options open to me, or would there be any other option as a private patient. I really don’t want to lose my NHS dentist as they are really hard to find but am sure there must be a better alternative for me than what I have been offered. Hoping you can help. Many thanks

my top front teeth are pushing backward would invisalign be an option for this problem?

Sunday, May 3rd, 2009
Q.
I am 35yrs old and my top two front teeth are pushing backwards, making the teeth next to them stick out. I can feel the pressure of this and am sure they are now moving backwards more rapidly that ever before. I asked my NHS dentist who checked my bite and said they are fine. My smile is quite big and I have always looked after my teeth. Would invisalign be an option for this problem?

my top teeth seem to go inside of my bottom teeth and crooked could nhs cover any of this

Saturday, May 2nd, 2009
Q.
Hi Kailesh, I came to see you several months ago, with regards to having several veneers and crowns fitted, to help straighten my teeth. My top teeth seem to go inside of my bottom teeth, and are crooked, partially I believe due to wrong diagnosis when I was younger, and teeth being removed incorrectly & a brace which created the ‘underbite’ effect. You very kindly spent a quite some time with me, and explained how a combination of whitening, veneers & crowns could really give me what I am looking for, as it really does effect my confidence, which isn’t great as my career in finance requires utmost confidence! My question is, I never proceeded with the treatments at the time, as firstly it was expensive (over £10k in total) which I didn’t have, and secondly as I found out I was pregnant with my first baby! I am now 7mths pregnant and wondered if at all, any of this work could be covered by the NHS, as although it is mainly for cosmetic purposes, it would help me massively with my confidence. I desperately want the work done, and have even considered having it done abroad after I have had my baby to cut costs, and any pointers on me finding a way to proceed without the massive costs would be greatly appreicated (especially as I will soon have a little mouth to feed!) Many Thanks

I need braces and my teeth has alot cavaties what can i get done about this on the NHS

Friday, May 1st, 2009
Q.
Firstly when i was younger, approx 9 i ahd my four canines taken out, due to over crowding. This hurt immensly, and i did not go to the dentist for about 8 years. When my canines came back through (adult teeth) they came through at the top, through the gums at the front like vampire teeth. When i went back to a dentist, they refered me to an orthodontist, who told me even as a student i had to pay for a brace, approx £4000-£5000. I did not agree to a brace, when i was younger, neither did my mother. they just used it as a remedy, now i am so self-concious, always cover my mouth etc. Also due to not going to the dentist for 8 years, i had alot of cavaties, and had to have my bottom far back tooth out, and my far back left, making it hard to eat. What can i get done about this on the NHS, as i am a student and cannot afford thousands of pounds. Also if nothing what can i get done privately and how much would it cost? thank you in advance
