Can a Filling Make You Feel Unwell Afterwards?

Wednesday, April 8th, 2015
Q.

Dr Moore, have you ever seen patients complain of illness after a composite dental filling was placed? I had a filling done behind my front tooth and have been feeling very unwell ever since. I felt absolutely fine before the filling was placed but since then have been getting very bad headaches, brain fog and a general feeling of un-wellness. The material used was called Venus Flow but I am told it cannot be removed. Can a tooth be removed to rid the problem if the material is impossible to remove? Thanks.

What Kind of Monthly Payment Plans are Available for Cosmetic Dentistry?

Thursday, March 26th, 2015
Q.

Hello. My teeth need completely sorting out. I am 23 and have two root canals that need doing, I think they both have an abscess on the as well. Also, my mouth is filled with metal fillings and I would love to just have white fillings. I think there is a lot of work that needs doing. They look nice when I smile but they are ruined. Do you know how much it is likely to cost, would I be able to get the work done and pay back monthly?
If you could let me know any information that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

What Treatment is Available for Receded Gums?

Monday, March 16th, 2015
Q.

I have receded gums and have gaps in my teeth where the gum has receded. Can you suggest any treatment for this please? I also have grey fillings, can these be replaced with white ones and how much would the cost be? And can I get this done at my own dentist or will I need to see a cosmetic dentist? I am really in need of something done as it’s so depressing because I am worried I might lose all my teeth because of this problem. I am 55 years old. Many thanks, I hope you can help.

Can I Replace my First Molars With New Wisdom Teeth?

Thursday, February 12th, 2015
Q.

Hi, can I replace my 1st molar (which is full of amalgam) with new wisdom teeth? I am 18 years old and my second molar is fine. Does such treatment exist? If so could you tell me of a possible price range and whether I need to go to a specialist (or can my normal dentist do the job)? I have a filling on all 4 first molars, will I be able to replace them all with wisdom teeth? Thanks in advance.

I No Longer Trust My Dentist. Do You Have Any Suggestions On How To Find A New One?

Tuesday, April 1st, 2014
Q.

I went for a dental cleaning and while I was under nitrous and the Dr. came in & showed me “close ups” of my teeth and told me that although they looked beautiful, that all the white fillings and crowns I had, from eye teeth back, had to be replaced. I needed 26 appointments or I could do it all in 1 shot under sedation which of course, I chose sedation since I had already explained to him my severe anxiety. 2 days later I questioned the necessity of this treatment plan and I was tag teamed by his sales team who made me feel even more nervous when they told me I was at risk of losing my teeth. I went through with it but thank God I only let him do one side. The temporaries were a disaster and I told his assistant that they were going to break if she didn’t get the bite correct but they broke 3 days later. The permanent crowns don’t touch each other (side to side), my upper teeth only meet my lower teeth at half of one crown with half of another along the whole span of entire right side of my mouth. I have pain in a tooth that previous to his work had no pain, they are yellow, short, they are flat (no contour what so ever). I have not had any dental work done for 3 years. I have asked him to fix them and had an orthodontist write him a letter as to the importance of restoring my bite. He keeps telling me I would need to pay for the sedation again. First of all, does any of this sound like the work of a “Cosmetic” dentist as he claims to be? Any suggestions on how to pick another dentist?

I Have A Chipped Tooth And My Amalgam Filling Shows Through. Can I Have The Filling Replaced?

Monday, March 24th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Moore, I would like your help. My main concerns are with two teeth. May I have your view to what is the best solution as:
My bottom tooth is chipped inwards showing the whole amalgam filling? I would like to replace the amalgam filling with a white filling and I would like the chipped tooth mended without the crown in place. How is this possible and how is it mended? Also I would like to ask you what’s the best and strongest filling to mend the top tooth (near the gum). Thank you for your help and advice in advance.

My White Fillings Feel Bulky In My Mouth. Can I Have Them Safely Removed?

Monday, March 3rd, 2014
Q.

Hi. I recently had two front teeth filled with white filling and I’m not satisfied with the results. It feels bulky in my mouth, and I can feel pressure dragging down on my teeth constantly. There is also pain in my gum, right above the middle between the two teeth.

Can I safely remove them and have my original shape back? If the dentist has only “smoothed” the surface of the chipped tooth, does this mean my original tooth is shorter in length or not? I am very stressed about this, it has hugely impacted my mood and I wish I didn’t do it. If they fall out, do I have to replace them or not and do they stain over time?

Thanks.

Can I Get Veneers On The NHS As My Teeth Get Me Down And I Don’t Smile A Lot?

Tuesday, February 11th, 2014
Q.

Hi Andrew. My teeth are slack, some are broken and others have holes in them. Can I get veneers on the NHS as it gets me down and I don’t smile a lot? Whenever I eat I get pain in my teeth and I have dentures, do I need my own teeth to have veneers? All of my bottom teeth are my own and a few of the ones on the top set. Most are either rotten decaying or slack, I do feel as though it would boost my confidence greatly and also my self esteem. Any advice you can offer me would be greatly received. Thanks.

I Would Like To Know How Much It Is For White Fillings And Whitening Treatment?

Thursday, January 2nd, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Moore, I had a filling in one of my back teeth on left side upper set. But randomly the front of the tooth has gone so I can feel the filling and looking at it I can see the black filling. Quite gross! I wasn’t sure what can be done but I wanted to know if a crown or a white filling could be done and wondered how much it would cost. I also wanted to ask the cost of having white fillings replaced on another tooth, and also a deep clean and possibly whitening all over. I hope you can help.

I Think I May Need Composite Bonding As I Grind My Teeth At Night. Is It The Right Option?

Thursday, October 17th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Shaffie, I am 17 years of age. I am interested in White fillings with composite bonding. If I decide on having this done to my teeth how long does it last, does it wear off in time? Also does it blend in with the colour of your teeth? A few of my teeth have worn down due to grinding my teeth at night and want to know if this method is suitable for my teeth. Also, I want to know how much will it cost because I am hoping to do it to all of my teeth as I am very insure about them whenever I smile. Does this method still work if you have gaps in your teeth and does it cover these gaps? Thank you.
