My Fillings Have Stained My Tooth, What Can Be Done?

Monday, March 25th, 2013
Q.

Hi there,

I have two very large amalgam fillings in my first molar (?!) on ether side of my top row of teeth and they have stained what little remaining tooth I have left a horrible grey/black colour. When I first had them done I didn’t realise they were going to be so far forward and visible in my mouth (4th tooth along from centre on either side). Every time I smile and even speak they are visible and I absolutely hate them. They have ruined my confidence and I have seen my dentist about replacing them but he says they are too large and even more of the tooth would have to be removed. I guess he is right but after years and years I just want to be able to smile properly without covering my mouth!

What options are available to me please?

Thank you.

My Tooth Is Breaking Below The Gum, Can You Fix It?

Friday, March 22nd, 2013
Q.

hello, recently I have been experiencing problems with chewing, one of my teeth feels unstable and as though it could just fall to pieces. So I went to the dentist and they told me that I have had a tooth breaking (partly below gum line I am told), it is my upper left 4th one.  So I’d like to know really how likely is it that I find a dentist who will rebuild it?  I am reluctant to have the third tooth overcrowned as it has no filling so far and I can’t afford an implant this year and possibly not next – …
– would you agree with the option of a nesbit or should I go for a bridge (if I can’t find a dentist to rebuild) I have tried 2 so far and they just shook their heads).
Many thanks to you in advance for replying.

I Have A Gap Tooth That Seemingly Cannot Be Fixed By Braces, What Can Be Done?

Thursday, March 14th, 2013
Q.

Hi
I have a gap in the middle of my teeth and fit a lolly pop stick in it so quite large
I have had braces and it came back in a week while they are sorting my retainer out. Like I don’t know why or how this happened but it is very frustrating and knocked me quite a bit. To have it actually seem as though it is fixed and then be back to square one within a week is kind of demoralising and I need to try and get some expert advice or help on how to get it properly and permanantly resolved. Whenever I am with friends and stuff it affects the times I have negatively, like  it gets me really down, and hate smileing
the skin in the middle or the gap and get quite sensitive and sore at times
what is the best soultion for this?
and kind of costs im looking at?
any advice you be greatly apprectated
Many Thanks
