With removable partial denture I am not able to speak or eat

Sunday, November 8th, 2009
Q.
I had a removable partial denture fitted 3 days ago. I can’t speak or eat with it and I’m sure the problem is because of the acrylic palate. Is it possible to have the palate removed? I have four teeth on the denture which are held in with two clasps and it is so hard to remove it. I haven’t put it in today, because its too difficult to get out again. Please advise. Many thanks

It sounds like it needs adjust… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Tooth bridges has caused lot of problems

Saturday, November 7th, 2009
Q.
My 23-year-old daughter has a 6 tooth bridge across one incisor to the other. This was because she was missing 2 laterals. This was done instead of implants because of severe bone loss of the missing laterals and not enough space for implants. She did have braces but unfortunately had an orthodontist that didn’t know what he was doing, causing these problems. An excellent prosthodontist suggested either redo braces and gum grafting or a bridge. For monetary reasons and my daughter not wanting go through this all over again for years she chose a bridge. This is when she was 19. Is it possible for her to get implants and crowns or once a bridge, always at bridge?

It doesn’t sounds like anythin… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

What can be done to a half broken tooth surfacing below gum-line?

Friday, November 6th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I have just returned from a visit to my dentist today. My appointment was for preparation for a crown on upper molar, second from back. This tooth had broken in half followng root canal treatment and filling 5 years ago. My current dentist put a temporary cover on it and we left it for six months to ensure that the seal hadn’t been breached. When he removed the temporary today he advised he would be unable to save the tooth as what was left of the tooth was partially below the gum-line rendering a crown that would not be viable. He suggested either a bridge, which he felt was not a good option due to the grinding down of the adjacent teeth and suggested an implant at a cost of £2,000. Having done some research on the internet some sites have said that crowns can be placed even if there is only a root left (that has had root canal treatment) and a post can be inserted into the root for the crown to be attached to. Can you advise if this is a possibility please? I look forward to your response. Many thanks.

Could nightguard be possibly causing pain in my gum?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
I have been trying to wear a nightguard /splint. But it’s causing me pain especially on one side where I have a bridge. In the morning it seems like the pain is in the gum under/behind the bridge area. It’s like one side feels alright but this side isn’t. I was hoping maybe you could shed some light on why this might be happening. Your thoughts on this are much appreciated. Thank you.

Is bridge treatment the answer for my jaw gap?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
I have a gap on my bottom jaw. The 2nd tooth never grew when I was growing up. My dentist says I could have a bridge but I am reluctant to have good teeth either side filed down. The gap is not very big but is annoying and the tooth from the upper jaw is growing downwards to fill the gap. Would an implant work? I had an implant for a bigger missing tooth on the uppper jaw which is great but this gap is smaller.

A.
If the gap is less than 5mm wi… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Can not cleaning between the bridges cause bad breath?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
My husband had a bridge fitted last year (4 front teeth). He does not floss the area between his bridge teeth and gums – saying that his dentist said it was not necessary as the bridge was tightly fitted and there was no “gap”. He now has bad/stale breath and I believe it is to do with him not cleaning his bridge work properly but he won’t be told. I too have a bridge (1 tooth) and my dentist showed me how to floss the “gap” between bridge and gum. So who’s right?

A.
I would advise that your husba… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Cost for reconstructing my teeth following periodontal disease

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
I am about to start looking for a dentist to do some reconstructive work on my teeth. I am about to lose many teeth due to genetic periodontitis. I am willing to have some existing teeth pulled if it makes the procedure easier – I do not hold out much hope for most of them. My preferred option would be bridges secured by implants, if possible. Can you advise me of the options I may have and the cost implications of same.
