Monday, May 4th, 2009
Q.
Hello. I have recently had somem composite fillings to fill the gap between my incisor and canine. The fillings have started to chip at the sides and near my gum. Can anything else be done for these fillings to be a sucess as I am really happy with the way they look, but not it they are going to keep chipping! I think that my bottom canine may be hitting the fillings when I eat – can this be shaved down? And is this likely to solve the problem? Thank you for your time,

Q.

I am 15 yrs old is it possible to get a white filling at this age?

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009
Q.
Hi…im 15 years old and i have a small gap between my front 2 teeth about 1mm-2mm wide, the rest of my teeth are straight and healthy its only the gap in my front 2 teeth that is causing me problems and i am not comfortable when smiling because of it and its really getting to me even though everyone says its not that noticeable, also it has increased in size slightly in the past year…when i visited my orthodontist i was told that it was unlikely that my teeth will push together in the future and i was offered a top brace plus further retainers for a cost of £1000 (as it is not severe enough to be included on the nhs) and this is a very high price for a small gap…i was wondering if it would be possible to get a white filling inbetween my gap at this age? what would be the rough cost for a gap this size? does it look very effective and unnoticeable? thank you please reply back with your advice, i really want to get rid of my gap!!
