Good Day. I Would One Day Like To Become A Dentist But I Am Confused. Could I Own My Own Practice If I Specialized In A Particular Subject?

Friday, July 18th, 2014
Q.

Good day, Dr Moore. I want to become a dentist, but I am confused. Is general dentistry a speciality among the 9 specialities because I want to one day own my own private practice as a dentist? Could I own my private practice if I specialize in any of the 9 specialities like orthodontics or periodontics? I am good at chemistry and maths but not so much at biology. I know all subjects are important but which are the subjects that are really important for dentistry? If I decide to become a doctor of dental medicine, would I be able to carry out operations like cleaning and others? Thank you in advance for your reply.

What are the options for treating advanced gum disease?

Thursday, August 16th, 2012
Q.

I have advanced stage gum disease and have lost teeth due to it. I am currently seeing a dentist who has removed the 4 front lower teeth and did deep scale cleanig with bone scraping and now am wearing an interim partial. My question is, are there any other options to advanced gum disease other than tooth extraction? When is laser gum surgery still an option? And is most dentist skilled in this procedure?
I am very self conscious about my appearance and just the removal of these front teeth has weighed heavy on my when I look in the mirror without my partial in.
Thank you in advance.

What can I do about bonding that has become discoloured?

Friday, December 3rd, 2010
Q.

I am a 47 year old female. I had peridontal surgery 22 years ago and am fortunate to still have my teeth, however I am not happy with the looks of them. Some years back my dentist bonded them to make the more stable. The bonding has discolored from the color of my teeth and no longer looks very good. I have had it redone a couple times but he says it doesn’t adhere well after the first time because of not having the porous tooth surface to adhere too. I do have a lot of bone loss, but it has held its own for all these years and when I smile you really can’t see that. Guess the discoloration is my main concern. He talked about a partial but I’m not ready to give up my teeth yet. Thanks

I don’t think there is a lot m… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I have periodontal disease. Is there anything that can be done?

Monday, November 22nd, 2010
Q.

I was recently referred to a dental hospital by my dentist, the consultant says I have periodontal disease and there is nothing that can be done. Not even implants due to extensive bone loss. I wanted veneers and my dentist had discussed fitting a splint and then veneers. Are there really no options available to me cosmetically??
