What are the best possible treatments for yellow teeth?

Saturday, October 10th, 2009
Q.
I have quite yellow teeth,always have since a child. I have recently had bone grafts in both upper and lower jaw due to peridontal disease.Which i am told has been stopped.Now i need 4 crowns.I would like whiter teeth before the new crowns are made.The dentist told me that as i smoke the results will only last a few months?.So i may have to opt for two veneers on the canine teeth,which are the darkest teeth. I live in Cyprus ,so a UK visit is not an option with dental costs involved. What do you think about whitening as opposed to the 2 veneers. Do you have any contact info of a clinic that uses the enlighten system in Cyprus. For over 30 years all i ever wanted was a nice smile, now im confused and wary!!!Please help.

what can be done to fix large gap after porcelain veneers

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
Q.
Good Morning, I wonder if you can help me? 10 years ago, I had porcelain veneers put on 5 of my top teeth(I have a missing right lateral incisor) The reason for the veneers,was to close up the gaps in between my teeth and to make the gap from the missing tooth smaller. However I still have a large gap, due to the missing lateral incisor and I am wondering what can be done to fix it and give me a symetrical smile. I have been told that I may have to wear braces, but I wonder if there is anything else that can possibly done?

A.
I would need to see you for an… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Any alternative to place temps after removing old crowns and veneers

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
Q.
I am having some old crowns/veneers replaced. I have had a consultation and wax-up. My next appointment is to have my old crowns/veneers removed and temps. fitted. What if I don’t like the temps. Will they be what the permanents are going to be like and will I have any control over the shade and shape etc. at this stage. I always thought that temps were made and you could look at them before old crowns removed and be happy with them before proceeding. I am puzzled. Look forward to your reply

I agree the purpose of the tem… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Need to numb again for reshaped or filed down broken teeth

Tuesday, October 6th, 2009
Q.
Hi there. I had to have a tooth refilled yesterday as half of an old one came out whilst eating an apple. Everything went ok, but today above my teeth is very sore and the bridge of my mpouth is very sore, I presume this is because it’s the same place i was injected to numb the area?? I am a very nervous patient, and my main concern is that the replacement filling feels too big and is stopping my teeth come together properly. Is this something that will sort itself out, or will i need to get it ‘reshaped/filed down’? Also will i need to be numbed again for this to happen? thankyou
