My Daughter Has 10 Missing Adult Teeth. What Kind Of Treatment Will She Need As She Gets Older?

February 24th, 2015
Q.

Hi Dr Andrew. My daughter had her first dental X-ray today – she’s 9. The dentist has told us that she has 10 adult teeth missing, so will only have 18 adult teeth. She has had 4 adult teeth grow through. She has been referred to an orthodontist for further treatment. Please can you tell me what options are available to her as she gets older. Obviously, having 10 missing adult teeth could impact on her eating and speech. We are worried about her future and her self-esteem.
Any advice would be greatly received.
Thanks.

I was told orthodontic treatment would be free for my missing dentist but now they say it’s not. Can you advise?

November 3rd, 2013
Q.

Hello! I have a missing lateral incisor and a crown on the other lateral incisor. My canine has been scraped small, so they could try to fit one big false tooth there but I refused because it looked weird. This procedure was made in Africa in 2008. Now I have a missing tooth and a crown which is starting to smell!!!! I went to my local dentist for a check up and asked them to remove the crown. I also asked them to refer me to the orthodontist but he refused to remove the crown. The reception gave me the orthodontist’s number. I called them and asked them to give me an appointment. They said because I was 20 years old that it was not free but told them that I have a HC2 form but they said it was private appointment . A dentist told me that the procedure would be free because I had a missing tooth!!!! please help? Is this right or wrong? Will I get a free treatment because of my missing tooth? If I have to pay for braces how much will it be? By the way I have not broken or damaged the missing tooth. After my baby teeth fell out x-rays should no lateral incisor on my left side and a very small lateral incisor on my right side(which looks like a baby teeth but now has a crown).

Would implants be able to close my front tooth gap?

November 18th, 2011
Q.
I have a gap between my two front teeth (approx 3mm). My two front teeth are each approx 9mm wide and I was told a while ago that they are two wide to be crowned and so close the gap. Would dental implants (involving either two, or four of the front teeth) be a way of closing this gap, and if so, how long would this treatment take? Thanks,

Would implants or veneers be best for my case of 3 missing and other overcrowded teeth?

August 25th, 2011
Q.
I have 3 missing teeth and am having a lot of trouble with some of the nerves on my teeth so am tearing my hair out and thinking of getting them all pulled out and some implants put in (I also have some crooked and misaligned teeth, especially on the bottom row as I have a lot of overcrowded teeth there) so would it be best to get implants or just veneers over my teeth? The cost is not a problem, i\’d just like to know which would be best, as I really dislike my teeth,
