Plz advice on the rules for NHS dentistry in regards of crowns

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009
Q.
Hello. I have a crown fitted in the front of my mouth. the gum line has receeded and the crown is now cracked (having been filled down to slim it by a dentist after It took too long to refit it when it dropped out and the other teeth had moved). it looks unsightly and the crown is partially shaven on one of the sides. My dentist says I would have to have a private crown to replace it, as its only a cosmetic problem. however, surely a less than complete crown is a little more than cosmetic. I have also developed a gum boil above the tooth now and I beleive this is becuase the slimmed down crown has allowed food to compact and enter the gum. where can I find a copy of the rules for NHS dentristy in regards to crowns? thank you

The right central incisor is chipped with slight gum recession, the lateral and canine on the upper right seem to be slightly longer and have slight gum recession, the next 2 molar seem ok, mising the 1st molar and 2nd molar seems ok.

Will the root canaled tooth be sensitive if it cracks Plz advice

Monday, October 12th, 2009
Q.
I had gum contouring done 3 weeks ago. On Friday (3 days ago), my dentist relined my temporary to add more acrylic along the gum margin where tooth was exposed. He tried to adjust the tooth (which had been root canaled) and the bur hit the tooth. After that, he applied bonding material to the tooth before replacing the temporary. Now the tooth is sensitive. He inserted the cord on gum when he relined the temporary. Could the sensitivity be from the gum tissue? If a tooth that had been root canaled crack, will it be sensitive? I am afraid to ask him but I hope it did not crack.
