My papilla have reduced in length is there a way to reduce the gap caused by it

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009
Q.
I have had some gum inflammation recently and have noticed that in some places the papilla have reduced in length creating some black triangles. These are not in the front teeth but more the small molars after the canines. My gum inflammation has gone now but really have a complex about these gaps. My periodontist told me that that because i have no bone loss the papilla should grow back. I have had a look on the internet and seen nothing that gives evidence to this. If they do not grow back is there a way to reduce the look of these gaps. I am looking to straighten my teeth can this help in any way? Thanks in advance for your help

can composite bonding be removed easily and will the underlying tooth look normal?

Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Q.
I had a small 1mm gap in my upper two front teeth filled with composite bonding a year ago. The results are great, and it looks really natural. However, I have recently decided to investigate braces as I have come to the conclusion that i would like to straighten my teeth. With this in mind, i would like my dentist to remove the composite bonding, so that a brace can be used to close the gap permanently. First, can composite bonding be removed easily? My dentist did the filling so well, it seems impossible to tell which is tooth and which is bonding? So, is it possible to remove it? And will the underlying tooth look normal? Also, when the filling was done, the bonding was polished and i can see a less shiny surface on some of the surface of my teeth. I will ask the dentist to polish this after the gap is revealed again, but If some bonding remains, does this effect how well fixed brace brackets would stay on? Also, when the brackets are removed at the end of treatment, would the bonding have stained, is this permanent, or would polising after the brackets are removed get rid of it? Thank you for your time.

my top teeth have moved in that my fluency of speech is being affected your thoughts on this

Thursday, May 21st, 2009
Q.
I’m a trained Opera Singer but my teeth have been moving slowly inwards (so they are slanting inwards) for many years due to having a ill fitting crown fitted. My top teeth in particular have moved in so far now that my fluency of speech is being affected and when I sing I look terrible as the sides of my mouth are pulling in too far. My singing is also being affected enormously (not enough room for my tongue to work properly, the sound is also being trapped too). I saw a local orthadontist but he said that if he moved my teeth the bottom teeth would pull the top teeth in again. Is there any hope for me as I’m going to have to give up any possibility of continuing life as a performer if I can’t straighten my teeth, and after 5 years of training and a great deal of hard work, this would be devastating. I’d be grateful for your thoughts on this. Many thanks.
