of my new front teeth.
Is there a way to fix that crown in my mouth by using a veneer or

I qualified from Kings College with a merit (BDS). I got a distinction
viva, but didn't get honours. (I am just glad I passed)
I struggled initially with some of the academic work, but did really
well in all clinical disciplines.

Aimar destroyed my molar during a root canal by drilling right through
the tooth, creating a perforation. I had to go to another dentist to
repair the damage, which Aimar had not told me about, even though he
knew he had done it.  He agreed to pay for the repair.

Hi, I have had root canal procedures twice on one tooth over the past
two years. I only had temporary filling both the times. The last time
I lost the temporary filling was about 18 months ago and the tooth has
been open ever since. Now I am having pain and not sure whether it is

My rear-most molar has a cavity at the gumline, and my dentist
says it isn't clear what to do about it.
According to him, a filling might cause more problems because
gum tissue does not adhere to fillings. Normally, he would

Hi I need some serious help. I'm a 25 year old female that has severe bad
breath. It smells and taste like sulphur. I don't know what to do- 10 years

I'm having a hard time finding a soft bristle toothbrush.  The ones that I
find in the store are all labeled "soft" or "medium" but when I get them
home I find that they are all relatively stiff.  In my time I've encountered
a smattering of truly soft bristle brushes, Gum brand ...

How bright is the blue charging light?  I live in a dorm so I keep my brush
charging in my room, and the last thing I want is a nightlight (which is
what I've heard it referred to as).

I had a root canal in my rearmost upper molar, and my dentist irrigated
with a strong solution of sodium hypochlorite.  Accidentally, some of it
dripped out and dripped right into my rear upper palate and throat,
which now burns like hell.

This question is to Dr. Bornfield (and any other dentist that may have
an opinion)

drilling a nerve).  HOwever the exact tooth where the pain originating

My dentist seems to think I am grinding my teeth at night.
I have never noticed myself doing this, but I don't think I do. I
don't do it during the day...
The dentist didn't seem to be sure that I was, only speculating.

I had a single tooth extraction, upper in front of molars, and dentist
put in post for implant. After several months when fitting the tooth,
it was apparent that the post was loose. So he wants to put in some
different post. I question the success of trying another procedure and

I had the surgery yesterday and today all day my eyes have been
hurting. Light seems to hurt them, and it hurts to keep my eyes open.
I've also had a splitting headache all day. The eye problem is kind of
like if you stare into the bright sun, it hurts your eyes so you stop
