My gold crown has a hole in it. Now what?

Replace
Sep 27, 2023

Sometimes crowns can be repaired but if that’s not possible I would advise replacing the crown with a new crown. As there is a hole, there is an increased chance of bacteria entering which can cause decay to your tooth and lead to more problems down the line.

Am I missing teeth? And will I need braces?

Here to help
Jul 9, 2023

I highly recommend you go and see a dentist and have a full mouth x-ray taken. This will determine where the teeth either side of your two front teeth (where the gaps are) are positioned. These teeth are called lateral incisors and they should have come through by this age. So it might be that you need orthodontic treatment to help them to come through or more rarely they can be congenitally missing which means they are not present at all. In this case your dentist could make you with a…

How can my overbite and tipped front teeth be fixed without compromising my veeners? (phot

Side profile fix
Jul 3, 2023

Hey thanks for putting your question out there! Your best option is to orthodontically reposition your teeth with braces or Invisalign clear aligners to correct the inclination of your upper front teeth. This will improve the “collapsed” profile of your teeth, widen your smile and improve the support to your upper lip and as you age it will prevent your smile looking as aged! You may need to replace your existing veneers once the teeth are in their new position but the dentist you see sho…

Texture on teeth. Leftover from braces or erosion?

Old Composite
Jul 3, 2023

It looks like it quite possibly is old composite due to where it is on your tooth surface. I would see a dentist to get this polished off. It will feel much smoother afterwards, look better and will avoid surface staining building up around that area.

Invisalign before gum reduction?

Smile Makeover!
Jul 3, 2023

Such a great question! I would suggest if you are considering Invisalign regardless to correct the alignment of your teeth and correct the crowding of your bottom teeth, to do this first. You may find the lip positions change slightly with the new position of your teeth and so might the gum height of your upper teeth. Maybe not much but maybe enough to be happy with. If you think you still have a gummy smile, then you may consider Botox to relax the upper lip muscle which will reduce the…

Will retainers straighten my teeth or do I need braces?

Let’s get them straight!
Nov 28, 2020

Hello! Unfortunately a retainer won’t straighten your bottom teeth, it will however prevent your teeth from moving further and worsening the crowding as it will hold your teeth in their current position. To straighten your teeth you could opt for Invisalign, you would only need a few aligners as it seems like only minor movements are needed to straighten out your bottom teeth. You could have a fixed brace but worth weighing up prices and appearance. If you want something discreet, clear a…

My crown just came off with my little tooth inside it. Now only the small base of my tooth left,

Snapped!
Oct 26, 2020

Hello,
It’s not clear from your photograph exactly how much of your tooth is remaining. If there is enough tooth remaining a post can be fitted into the tooth to allow the placement of a crown. If there isn’t enough tooth left, you have other options such as a bridge, implant or denture. As your tooth has snapped along with the crown, you will most likely require a new crown that will be a better fit to your tooth as it is now.
Hope you get it sorted!
