  Composite fillings need replacing. Is this urgent?

  When I lived in Ohio I had a dentist that was doing composite fillings 18 years ago. I haven’t had any problems with them until now. I had my first visit with a dentist since I moved to Georgia and she says that three of the filling on my bottom teeth are leaky and need…

  I’ve been wearing dentures for about 15 years now and I have never been fond of them. I moved from Georgia to Tennessee three years ago. About a year and a half ago I paid my new dentist a lot money for a new denture that I hate. I know that’s a strong word but…

  My dental implant crown color is way off and my dentist can’t get it right

  I got a dental implant crown five months ago. I’m pretty frustrated because the crown is on a left incisor and the color is off. The crown is darker than my other teeth and it actually looks worse now that the natural tooth did. On the first try, my dentist didn’t get the color right…

  Need some advice on teeth implants

  The crowns on my teeth implants look fake. I’ve had them for almost three years and I hate them. My dentist says that I’m being too picky, and that I should give it some time. How much more time do I need after three years? Am I being unreasonable, or am I right to make…

  Can I switch to a cosmetic dentist, if my dentist already started the work?

  I’ve been going to the same dentist for years, and I trust him, at least with the work he previously did. I recently decided to get a smile makeover, so I figured he could do it. I’m wearing my temporary veneers now, but I don’t like them. He’s made several adjustments, but it just looks…
