I have had the same dentist for 20 years. He did a root canal in 2000 and then crowned the tooth. Two years ago, he did a full panoramic film and didn't mention any problems. Six months ago, I went to him and said I wasn't feeling well and that the tooth was loose. I had been sick with a fever since the surgery but my docs didn't know why. He said the tooth wasn't loose and then attempted to get me to have a root canal and crown on a healthy tooth because I said it was sensitive to hot and cold. Last week, I was given a complete oral exam at a dental school. It turns out that my trusted dentist failed to tell me that the film showed an abcess on the tooth where he had done the root canal. He had denied the tooth was loose six months ago and didn't tell me about the abcess. This tooth was deemed mobile and pulled immediately. The dentist admitted in a phone call that he didn't tell me about the problem. A few years ago he lost his license when he did the same thing to someone else.

My daughter (15 months old) has halitosis and bleeding gums and tonight I noticed that the gum over one of her front teeth is pulled back and that her gums are red. I read that these symptoms are associated with gingivitis. Isn't she a little young to have this disease?

hello, i sustained damage to 2 of my teeth a few months ago - 1 i feel needs a dental implant and the other i feel can be saved with a crown. The damaged teeth are next to each other, but i'm thinking would i be better off just getting 2 implants and instead have them both pulled?

ive done some research around the net and found if you order 1 or more implant/s they tend to be cheaper, so in the end it may be a simlar price than what it would cost me for an implant and crown (together).

implants sound the best thing as they seem stronger than natural teeth (from what ive read) so id give serious concideration to that option, can someone also give me a rough extimation to what it would cost me for 2 dental implants (next to each other) - england.

ive heard its cheaper to go overseas and have a holiday out of it, but id rather stick with my home because at least they will be garrented if anything goes wrong, thank you.

I had braces for 4 years and I haven't had them for at least 2 years now and I wear my retainer once in a while. I am aware that my teeth moves and my wisdom teeth is growing....so if you can wiggle your teeth is it normal?

Does anyone know who i complain to about a dentist? I was 8 mins late for an appoitment yesterday and was told i would have to re-book! Well why is it ok for mr dentist to keep us waiting 15-20 mins and not even a sorry! Also my wife went to the same dentist with toothache and was told she needed a crown @£280. Well it turned out she did not need thecrown , she went to another dentist, found out she had sinusitus and a small filling was needed £24! I feel a complaint is in order!!!!!!

My dentist gave me a Sonicare Elite toothbrush to try out for a couple of weeks. It feels great. What is the difference between the Sonicare 7300, 9500 and 9800? The differences seem pretty small (the 9800 is only available from professional dentists). What are the differences?

after researching on the net ive found out a dental implant costs around £200 from the manufacturer, yet a dentist will charge the patient in the region of £1500-£2500 per tooth.

so i ask this question why charge so much? it's all good making a profit (afterall dentists are in business the same way as everyone else).

but thats like a 1000/1200% profit, don't you think this is bleeding the public dry?
