When i close my mouth it looks like my two front teeth bite into my lips and it looks weird and makes me feel uncomfortable, is there anything that can be done to correct this?

surfing the web, it looks like there is a lot of metal bridges being sold. for the extra money, is it extra worth it to go for gold? also what about gold foil? my last bridge -gold/porcelain lasted 20 years. i grind and wear a mouth guard every night.
thanks, akua

I have a small/recessive chin and that's because I have an overbite. My upper teeth covers about 90% of of my lower teeth when I bite. If I get braces to fix my overbite, would that also fix my chin so that it stands out more?

I just went to the dentist and in addition to a few cavities that I need filled, the dentist informed me that I will need an inlay.

How much should it cost for an inlay? How much for a filling?

Is it going to be more expensive since I'm in Los Angeles (I heard that dentists out here charge more than in other part of the country)?

It's on the side of my tongue, and I keep biting it repeatedly. Any suggestions as to what I could do to get rid of the soreness? It's making me CRAZY!

How long are you under it and how many times do you have to do it before your teeth are super white?

the plastic part is intact but the wire is broken.
Also it's been about 3 weeks since i wore them last so my teeth have shifted.
so can they make a copy of my retainer or do they need to take an imprint of my mouth?

I have a very, very small cavity in a molar, but after four shots of novicane I still felt it when the dentist started drilling, and apparently it's because I grind my teeth, not because of any infection. He said I should have a root canal to get it fixed. I looked up root canal information, but it's all in relation to an infected or heavily damaged tooth, which mine is not.

So, would it hurt in my type of situation?

I don't have health insurance and not enough money for a dentist. Will the tooth fall out and will the pain pass if I wait it out?

I've been unhappy with my teeth for a while. But i'm so nervous, even just thinking about. Not really about the pain but more about what other people will think. I also feel like it would bring unwanted attention to crooked teeth (well crooked at the beginning)

I had my wisdom teeth pulled yesterday and I have been extremely swollen since about 3:30 pm yesterday. I still have to go to school next week and I also have very very very important things to do. I was just wondering when the swelling will go down, or ways to make it go down faster?

I have the biggest fear of dentists. I have to go to one pretty soon and I shake just thinking of it. I don't want to tell my mom because she doesn't really help. I may need fillings and am really scared. Last time I went, they pulled a tooth out and only used laughing gas. It hurt sooo bad. What should I do to help calm myself?I want to be able to sleep easily at night! Should my mom come with me or not?

My jaw also pops and the pain is almost unbareable. It make my ear, eye, neck, and shoulder on my left side ache when it hurts. And at times it feels like its stuck shut.
