My Dad Is Suffering From TMJ, Is Surgery The Only Option?

Wednesday, August 14th, 2013
Q.

Hello sir,
my dad aged 68 is suffering from TMJ. We have tried almost most of the suggested treatments except surgery. He is not able take anything other than liquids. He has severe locking/ unlocking problem both jaws and unable to close mouth easily. This is knocking his confidence. Also, mouth keeps opening up…..we are being suggested that only surgery can help. Could you please suggest if this is treatable and if yes, how much would it cost please? He is not a resident of UK. Any information you can provide on the matter would be greatly appreciated as it is severely affecting not only him but his family also.

Can cosmetic dentistry correct the position of my chin?

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2012
Q.

Hi, I am considering having cosmetic dental surgery because allthough my teeth are not terrible i have neglected them over the years more than i should and they are quite stained, i have a small gap between my front teeth and my bottom front teeth are quite crooked. Which leads to my question. I hate my side profile because i feel like i have a weak chin, i think this may be caused though because when my teeth are clenched in the normal position my bottom teeth seem to be further back than most peoples appear to be. Would cosmetic dentistry align all my teeth perfectly so that when my mouth was closed my teeth would all rest in the correct position thus aligning my chin correctly, or would something like that require a more drastic kind of surgery? Thankyou for your time.

I had an operation to remove a cyst and because it has destroyed my mouth, I lack confidence, can you suggest treatment to correct this?

Monday, January 17th, 2011
Q.

Hi, i wondered if anyone could help me. I am 37 and gone through alot with dentists. I had a cyst growing in my mouth and was left to grow for 18yrs or more, when a new dentist came along i was referred to the hospital but i had to have a big operation. I had crowns already and missing teeth from the old dentist and lost all my confidence i hate my teeth. But, i have now no bone left in the roof of my mouth and the case was lost because of causation. I havent alot of money and i dont know where to go but my mouth is such a mess, i dont go out much apart from work cos i have really lost all confidence. Do you know any work i can have done that will reconstrut my bone, fix up the 4 front crowns and fill in the gaps along the top where my teeth are missing and sort out the fillings and discolouration from the rest of the teeth…or am i always going to be like this? i have been told my teeth have a life expectation of 3 yrs since the op which took place in feb 09…am really worried.
