My Wisdom Teeth are Causing a Lot of Pain. What Can I Do?

Wednesday, October 29th, 2014
Q.

Hello,

A few months ago, I went to the dentist as my wisdom teeth were causing a lot of pain. They took x-rays and found out that all four of my wisdom teeth were growing wonky and into the teeth in front. They said as the teeth have not yet broken the gums, there is not anything they can do yet.

Recently, my wisdom teeth have become painful again and is very uncomfortable. I have also notice a gap appearing between my two front teeth which is causing the skin inside my mouth to become sore as it keeps getting caught in the gap and is making sores in my mouth. I don’t know what to do as it is very painful but I do not want to go back to that dentist as they have said they won’t do anything.

Please can you let me know what can be done as I am worried the gap is just going to get bigger and my wisdom teeth more painful.

Thank you.

I Have An Impacted Tooth On The Upper Left Side. Can This Be Easily Removed? I May Need My Wisdom Teeth Removed Also.

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Gambroudes, I have an impacted tooth on the left side on my upper gums. My wisdom teeth have also not been removed yet. I don’t know if that has had an impact on the way they have to be removed. I want to get this extra tooth removed as soon as possible. I also haven’t had a dentist appointment in a while. I have heard from some that it is not possible but I have also heard that it is possible. I am undecided I need to ask someone who actually knows what they are talking about. Can this easily be removed?

I Have Four Front Teeth Missing And Would Like To Know My Denture Options As I’m Getting Married Next Year?

Friday, August 15th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Moore. I have had my 4 front upper teeth missing for a number of years now. I had bad teeth ever since I was a child and my 2 back teeth each side on lower(wisdom) are also missing. What options have I got as I don’t know which denture treatment I need and the costs as I’m self employed? They get me down and I need to do something about them as I want to get married in the next year and want to be able to smile. My teeth are bad and I feel ashamed to go to local dentist. Thanks.

My Root Cracked After Root Canal Treatment. Would A Cantilever Bridge Be A Suitable Option For Me?

Monday, March 24th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Hughes. I am 80 years old. My dentist tried to do a root canal on one side of a bridge that holds a false tooth between two crowns. He had a problem that resulted with the root being cracked. This is on the lower left side. I have all four wisdom teeth but when the cracked root tooth is pulled that will leave two teeth missing with only a wisdom tooth and the original crown on the other side.

Will a cantilever bridge work for me? I do not want an implant and would like further treatment options suitable to me? Thank you.

I’ve Not Been To The Dentist For 20 Years And My Teeth Are Becoming Discoloured. Does This Mean I Have An Underlying Problem?

Tuesday, December 17th, 2013
Q.

Hi, I was wondering if you could help me. I havent been to the dentist for 20 years so a little bit worried about going. I have noticed of late I have a back tooth that is very sensitive and causing issues when I am chewing. I also have 1 wisdom tooth that doesn’t look great it looks really discoloured and another which hasn’t yet come through but you can see it. I am starting to get worried about my teeth as they all seem to look a little discoloured these days. Does discolouration mean I have bad teeth. Please help.

Regards.

I Am Worried That My Wisdom That Certain Teeth Will Be Pushed Out By My Wisdom Teeth. How Can I Get Straightened Teeth?

Thursday, December 5th, 2013
Q.

Hi, I am 28, and for years now I have not been happy with my teeth. When I was 15 I had teeth removed to make room for a brace. The brace seemed to do nothing and my teeth are now misshaped. I also have wisdom teeth coming through which have been coming through for years now and don’t seem to be growing much further. I am worried that certain teeth in my mouth will be pushed out by my wisdom teeth. I am wanting straight teeth that are not misshaped but not sure of the cost involved could you help?

Can an extracted wisdom tooth be used to replace another?

Thursday, January 13th, 2011
Q.

Hi,

Is it true wisdom teeth can be reused, I have to have an extraction but also have a wayward wisdom tooth needing removal – is it possible to put the wisdom tooth into where the extracted tooth was and avoid the cost of a dental implant.

Thanks.
