My new has not grown much is it possible to have an implant to replace the lost tooth

Thursday, July 9th, 2009
Q.
HI i’m 50 years old and last november had to to have a front tooth removed to make way for a new tooth coming through, unfortunately 8 months on the new tooth has not grown much.

I would like to know if it would be possible to have an implant to replace the lost tooth,but as there is already a small part of the new tooth visible but not fully grown, would it make it a more difficult job to do.

Monday, June 22nd, 2009
Q.
3 months ago I went to my dentist with a painfull tooth. He filled the tooth and as soon as I came home terrible pain started. I stayed 2 weeks with the painkillers help and I went again to my dentist. He changed the filling and I was OK for 2 weeks and my pain started again.

Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Q.
I currently have two teeth which by dentist said will benefit from being crowned. However he said that if I have these crowns on the NHS, they will have to be done in metal and will be seen as metal in my mouth, rather than porcelin and that to have a porcelin crown I will have to pay privately. I have tried looking for this information on the NHS website, under the band 3 information, however nothing is stated. Could you give me any information regarding this please.

is it true that dental hygenist should use instruments pastes technique to clean bonded teeth

Thursday, May 21st, 2009
Q.
I had my 2 front teeth bonded (for a small space and a little chip on one front tooth) a year ago and was told it doesn’t need any special care and can be cleaned normally by the dental hygenist every 6 months (which it has been), but I have recently read (online) that a dental hygenist should use different instruments/pastes/techniques when cleaning bonded teeth in order not to damage the bonding. Is this true? I actually have noticed less shine on my bonding (I can see where the bonding is when looking in a ceratin light) and wondered about the cause and what can be done about it. Also, I was wondering, is there more of a chance a cavity can form around a bonded tooth? I would really appreciate information about all this, thanks!

A.
Gentle cleaning by the hygenis… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
