Tuesday, August 12th, 2008
Q.
I suffer with severe mouth ulcers but have crooked teeth that i am very concious over and would like to be straightened but i have been told that having a brace would just cause even more discomfort for my ulcers. is there any other alternative brace other than having a ‘train track’ type that would cause me discomfort, or any other type of surgery that could straighten my teeth.

my teeth are falling out and i cannot afford implants

Thursday, July 31st, 2008
Q.
Hi.my bottom 4 teeth are all but ready to fall out.i think they are only held in by the plaque behind those teeth.when i was last at dentist he said he couldnt realy clean them because they were slack.but they have got worse.i am dreading losing them though i know it is inevitable.he wouldnt crown my top 2 teeth either because he said they wouldnt last 5 year.i am not in a position to pay for implants and it seems that if you get free treatment the options are poor due to lack of money.i would like replacement teeth to look at least real.my mam has recently had a full set of false teeth and they look realy fake compared to some people that look real(why is that?)what are my options.thanks in advance
