Thursday, November 6th, 2008
Q.
I am 18 years old and have recently been told by my dentist that i would need to have 2 dental implants fitted on my bottom jaw I was also informed that i would need a bone graft from my hip to build onto the thin bone that was left. i have had the two Gaps (which are towards the back of my mouth) for about 8 years when my adult teeth were removed (but i do not know why they were removed at that time)I am a student, can i get the implants on the nhs since it was not my fault the teeth were removed?

I have a small chip in one of my front teeth

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008
Q.
I have a small chip in one of my front teeth. As it’s not too big (and my front teeth are quite large) filing the front two teeth would seem to me like the simplest and cheapest way to go about fixing this. Does this kind of treatment even exist and if so what are the prices? I also know the cause of the chip and it comes from another tooth on the bottom of my mouth that sticks out a little and the chip was obviously caused by that as this tooth fits in the chip. So i’d need to get that sorted too.

on an old root canal treated tooth and that no NHS

Thursday, October 30th, 2008
Q.
I am informed that I need an apicoectomy on an old root canal treated tooth and that no NHS Dentist can perform it also the local Dentistry Hospital can not perform it. Questions: Is the treatment really going to cost £500? What is the cost or is it a lottery? Where can I find a private dentist who is able to offer this specialist treatment without telephoning every entry of yellow pages? Why is it that an NHS dentist can’t perform the treatment but a private one can afterall they all have the same training ?

can you recommend a good NHS dentist in ESSEX

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008
Q.
Hello Dr my question is,i had a bridge done about 20yrs ago, within the past 6months the bridge partly broke away and just yesterday whilst bitting into a french stick the whole bridge come away,it was on the right hand side of my mouth(front tooth then another tooth then a gap where the bridge was then 2 teeth that where ground down where the bridge was fixed to)which i must say are very sensitive at the moment,now the thing is i have been to several NHS dentists who say they can do it on the NHS then only to turn round and say they cannot do it, but can do it privately, this is frustrating due to the fact that each time i have to pay for them to look only for them to turn round and say they will only do it private,how can i know that they can’t do it on the NHS and are not just trying to make money out of me, as you know it is not cheap to have this work done privately, and if i had plenty of money i would have it done, but could you recomend a NHS dentist in my area that is trustworthy and reliable, or what would your reccomendation be, thankyou for your time.  Halstead Essex.
