How Could My Smile Be Improved?

Thursday, August 20th, 2015
Q.

Instead of having 4 front top teeth, I only have 3. What is your recommendation to get a nice smile? I have no gaps/spaces between any of my teeth. My 4th teeth never grew in. I don’t believe I have a 4 tooth at all. I am 36 years old and never take pictures with my family. I have 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls, and husband. They all love to smile and take pictures, however I don’t. I would love to take a family portrait, but I am not comfortable with showing my teeth. I have recently been going to the dentist to get my cavities taken care of. I would never go to the dentist in the past because I am afraid to let people look in my mouth.

I Used To Have Braces And My Teeth Need Straightening Again, What Can I Do?

Friday, August 2nd, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Kalpesh Bohara I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I have had for some time, I had fixed braces put in when I 13 years old I am know 23 I got these from an NHS surgery, I wore a retainer for a year then, a fixed brace for a year. My first four top teeth have returned to the way they were before I had the fixed brace. This frustrated me no end as I now feel like all of the treatment before was a complete waste of time. My confidence has gone right down, what would be the best thing for me to do? I’m on exception at the moment due to having a baby so wouldn’t be able to afford the huge costs. Any assistance that you could provide would be helpful. Thank you.

My New Dentures Cause Me Pain And Make It Difficult To Eat, Is There Another Option?

Friday, March 15th, 2013
Q.

Hello. I have recently had my top 4 front teeth extracted and dentures fitted immediately. However I am not able to chew my food as my bottom 4 teeth prevent me from a full bite. I having to drink soup or eat very soft food as I can only use my tongue to ‘cut’ my food. The plate in my mouth is making the roof of my mouth sore and unable to bear pressure. Due to poor bone density I have been told my other teeth will not support a bridge and I don’t have a lot of money for implants. I was wondering if there is any other way or a thinner or more flexible denture (that is provided by the NHS) or is this my lot. I have the added problem of having a husband whose blood goes cold at the thought of seeing me with my missing teeth. Any response along with possible costs would be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in anticipation.
From a very sad 48 year old lady.

What Would The Cost Be Of Closing A Gap and Straightening A Tooth?

Monday, January 7th, 2013
Q.

I have a gap inbetween my 2 front teeth an a twisted fang. Would you say this was a simple straightness of teeth or a more complicated.
I have had the gap all my life but would really like it closed. The twisted fang is not bothering me as much but if I could get them both done that would be ideal.
Is there a price range depending on if I just get the gap closed or will it be pretty much same price for both gap and fang. I Look forward to reading your response, Thanks

Recently my top teeth have started pushing my bottom teeth onto a slant, what advice can you give?

Friday, April 8th, 2011
Q.

Hi, I have noticed over the last month or two that my top teeth are now sitting over my bottom ones and have now started pushing the bottom teeth back on a slant. To make my teeth meet I feel I have to pull the top of my jaw in and the bottom part out, its uncomftable and the teeth are starting to look noticeably changed and smiling is not comftable or easy. Can you tell me what has happened.

Many Thanks.

Can you advise how to realign my top set of teeth?

Thursday, March 3rd, 2011
Q.

I have one tooth pushed back from my top set of teeth, it’s right next to the left centre tooth. I’ve never been bothered by my other teeth which are also slightly wonky, especially my bottom teeth, but this tooth affects me so much I can only smile on the other side. I know I’ll end up paying for the treatment on it, so what’s the best option?

Sounds like a simple removable… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

What surgery could correct my inward-facing top teeth?

Wednesday, January 12th, 2011
Q.

My front, upper teeth move backwards (inwards iinto my mouth), I guess its quite opposite to those who have their top teeth moving outwards. As I am a teacher, any type of braces would be inconvenient. Is there any type of surgery that would fix this problem or are there any other solutions? And what are the costs of this

Thank you
