Can smoking and drinking affect my teeth?
Friday, September 25th, 2009Why is there dark staining on teeth inspite of adhering to oral hygiene standards?
Thursday, September 24th, 2009Q.
Since moving back to New Zealand 2 years ago I now suffer from dark staining on my teeth.I have not drunk tea or coffee for over 25 years , no red wine either.I do drink cammomile or peppermint tea. I use a good electric tooth brush & brush for over 2 mins twice per day & floss at night, my husband can attest to my oral hygeine standards, I used to nurse in the dental department of my training hospital.I am dairy & gluten free. Could it be something in our water? We have filtered on the fridge but not for the kettle on the main tap? We only used filtered water in the UK . Your advice would be appreciated as my dentist is at aloss to the cause, I see him every six months and the problem is getting worse between visits. With kind regards

What are the less expensive options for stained and crooked teeth?
Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009Q.
Hello. I am 40 years old and for as long as I can remember my teeth have been in a very poor condition. They are stained, crooked and badly worn. I would love to have them all taken out and be fitted with dentures or something similar. I am not registered with a dentist and not entitled to NHS. I am on a low income and am desperate to have this problem fixed. Could you please tell me how i can get this done and an approximate cost. Its ruining my life now. Thank you in advance

How to repair crooked teeth without extracting them?
Sunday, September 20th, 2009Q.
Hi i’ve had crooked teeth for a long time. When i was a teenager my parents couldn’t afford to get me braces, back then i didnt mind the way my teeth were i guess because i was so young i didnt care, but now i do not like smiling because my left front tooth sticks out ( i have an overjet) and its really unattractive. i am 21 years old now and i want to get them fixed but in a way scared because 3 years ago i went to an orthodontist and he told me i need 4 teeth extracted because i have severe crowding, over jet, and an over bite. i was actually hoping i would be a candidate for invislign but i wasnt. so here i am 3 years later and i want to get them fixed so bad. i just do not want to get teeth extracted. Now my question is when that orthodoctist said all that to me 3 years ago. Do you think i can be able to fix my teeth with out getting any teeth pulled out? and i just read about the 6 month smile, do you think i will be a candidate for that?.

I have a loose implant which on X ray today shows I have a bone infection, is there anyway this can be treated other than removing the implant. Would it really need to be removed for 3 months, mortified

Can u advice me on the best products/procedures available for whitening?
Tuesday, September 1st, 2009Q.
Hi Rob, I am considering in-surgery whitening and wondered if you could advise on the best products/procedure available? (highest quality/results possible) How long it lasts? A good cost benchmark etc? My teeth are in good shape so i have ruled out veneers as i think whitening will give me the results i’m after. In particular i have heard of a “bio” laser treatment but have found very little info (I assume then that this is just the normal Zoom style treatment of gel + laser). I am based in Birmingham so would appreciate any recommendations for a surgery to go to! Many thanks in anticipation of your help! Regards
