I’ve Cracked My Dental Crown, What Should I Do?

June 21st, 2015
Q.

Hello Dr Moore.
I had a crown placed over a dental implant about 3 years ago, but now it’s cracked! It’s definitely going to fall out, it doesn’t feel secure at all now, and parts of it have started to come off. Obviously I can’t go on like this because I don’t want to cut my tongue or anything and it’s difficult to eat now. I’ve got an appointment with my dentist next Monday, but what should I do between then and now? And what will he say? Thank you.

Will Smoking Discolour My Crown?

May 4th, 2015
Q.

I’m having a dental implant with a crown fitted in 3 weeks time, but my dentist has been a bit unclear about how long the procedure is going to take. Also, I’m a smoker so I’m wondering if the crown will get discoloured over time? Thanks in advance.

I Had an Infected Molar Removed But the Sockets Keeps Getting Infected. Do I Need Antibiotics?

April 25th, 2015
Q.

Hi, I hope you can be of some help. I have recently had one of my top molars (which had been crowned) removed after getting infected twice, because my dentist said there’s a high risk of it getting infected again and again. He cleaned the hole left by the molar but about a week later it was infected, so I went back and he used an antiseptic to clean it again. I’m due to go back in 5 days because it feels like it’s getting infected again, should I ask for antibiotics this time? Thank you in advance.

I’m Anxious About Having Dental Treatment But Really Want My Smile Back. What Can Be Done?

April 6th, 2015
Q.

Hi there. My teeth are awful, and many are missing. I’ve never been able to get them sorted because I didn’t have much money but I feel as though now I’m doing much better financially so it needs to be done. As desperate as I am to have a beautiful smile, I am terrified of the amount of dental work I’m faced with because my teeth have gotten really bad and I suffer from general anxiety, which I suppose has stemmed from my lack of confidence with regards to my appearance. What options are available to me and is there support available for anxious patients? Thank you.

Why Does My Crown Keep Falling Out?

February 2nd, 2015
Q.

Hi Dr. Moore. My crown has fallen out 7 times this year. My dentist glues it back in and doesn’t charge me but I am tired of having to have it glued back in every 6 weeks. I’ve stopped eating real sticky foods and I floss down and out, never pulling up. I told my dentist I thought she cut the tooth too low when she did my root canal treatment, but she says it might be because I chew too hard. Is this my fault or hers, and what can I do?

I Want A Couple Of Implants To Support My Partial Dentures As I Regret Having My Top Teeth Pulled. Is This Possible?

August 28th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Moore. I have a full upper set of false teeth and only a few teeth remaining on the bottom and I was wondering if I could get just a few implants or crowns in order to help me return to wearing just a partial denture at the top like I had previously before getting all my teeth at the top removed? I’m getting so depressed through it that I can’t even leave the house and I find it hard to talk properly, I have saved up a couple of thousand pounds and was wondering if there was anyway to help relieve me of wearing a full set of dentures? Could I have a few crowns or implants fitted that could then support a partial plate with the other teeth as I really regret having all my top teeth pulled out as I’m now lacking self confidence and I feel helpless, any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

I Have An Infected Molar And I Don’t Want Complications. Should I Go With Antibiotics?

July 3rd, 2014
Q.

Hello, I have just had a crowned molar extracted because it got infected for a second time and my dentist said that recurrent infections were highly likely so it should come out. He cleaned the remaining hole but two days later it was infected. So he cleaned it again and put a swab in it with antiseptic on it. It feels like it is getting infected again though not as badly as the first time. I am going to see him tomorrow, two days after the swab went in. Should he give me antibiotics now or just clean it again. I am breastfeeding. I don’t want unnecessary antibiotics but I don’t want complications either. Many thanks in advance for your help.

My teeth are a mess, help?

July 7th, 2012
Q.

Hi, my top teeth are a mess! I have a mini denture for 5 missing teeth, I have 2 gold crowns at the back, 2 crowns at the front which keep coming detached from the posts, 1 crown to the left which is working loose, 1 crown to the right which came out completely, and 1 crown at the front which broke off and I swallowed it. My bottom teeth are not much better. I have no teeth at the back, and all of my front teeth need work! HELP! If I were to look at implants to help me feel human again, what costs should I expect? Would I need to win the lottery?

June 1st, 2012
Q.
i am a 56 year old female andI have just had my front tooth – crown, post and remaining tooth removed. When will I be able to start work for an implant? The temp plate is badly fitting and uncomfortable and the sooner I am able to start the better. Could you also give me some idea of the costs involved. My other front tooth is also a crown, but to avoid costs I would be happy to have a replacemnt for this.,
