Top part of my teeth is whiter than the rest of my tooth and now it chipped. How can I fix it?

Gumline decay and decalcification can lead to serious problems.
Oct 13, 2015

If you’ve lost teeth due to the gumline discoloration (looks like decay or severe decalcification) then it’s definitely a severe problem. The decalcification right at the gumline usually comes from plaque staying at the gumline for long periods of time which allows the bacteria in the plaque to create acidity in the area which weakens the enamel and changes the color. This weakened area can then be an area where decay can burrow in deeply and weaken the tooth enough to crack off….

Can my crown be safely removed and put in the right way? Who should pay for this to be done right?

Crown feels strange after cementation.

Hello, it’s unfortunate that the crown is not comfortable in your mouth. My guess would be that the contours of the crown are not matching that of your surrounding teeth which definitely would make it feel out of place. The best thing would be go back to your dentist and see if they can adjust it until it feels better. A worst case scenario would be to remove it and remake another one that feels more comfortable. Good luck!

Hello, it’s a tough situation that you’re in. Your teeth look to be in great shape from your photo and it’s clear that you don’t have much space to work with.

Hello, there are many ways to tackle your situation. These are just a few suggestions from the picture you posted. For any dentist to really go into what’s possible or not, they’d have to do a full evaluation of your bite and function. But, you could have a dentist bond the bottom corner of the tooth to fill in the gap. Just be aware that the same tooth on the other size also is a little more pointed than usual. So if the lower teeth don’t slide into that gap…

I am trying to understand why returning teeth to original size is now complicated?

Veneers for 17 year old.
Oct 13, 2015

Hi Maya, from my perspective I don’t think it would be terribly complicated to restore you to your original tooth size. Although I don’t have xrays or pictures to see how much tooth structure you’ve lost, I can’t imagine you’ve lost a significant amount of tooth by age 17 unless there were some extreme circumstances. If you’re teeth have moderate or severe erosion, then veneers or crowns may be a good option because it’s a way to fix the problem with the tooth and also restore…
