But the Danish Dental Association has also created a website which will make it easier for patients to complain about the dentist, seek compensation, etc.

Answer:
Dear Christina
It is very normal that there is a difference when children get their permanent teeth. It is typically only when you are 12 years you have most of your adult teeth, but there are obviously differences in children.
Hope you can use my answer.

implant sits a little loose
19th September 2011
Filed in Other Questions
Question:
For 3 weeks after sitting, I have an implant in my front tooth. Gums
looks fine, but I started to feel that it may move slightly
If I push it with my tongue. It's not much, but I am
worried. Is it about to fall out?
Answer:
Dear Jurgita
It's not a good sign if it is therefore the implant that moves. The implant is screwed into your bone, which means that it will not be able to move. I think you should visit your dentist as soon as possible.
Hope you can use my answer.

Removed wisdom, but not the stitch?
19th September 2011
Filed of Treatment
Question:
Hello Dentistry Correspondence,
I had surgery a wisdom tooth out today, there was almost horizontal in the jaw on the right side. I have not particularly bad, I can chew and speak without problems, but is very sore up under the jaw, even when I turn my head. I guess what you can expect after an intervention, but I've read other people's spots, and it seems like they have all been made? I'm not - it bleeds a lot, if I sneeze or span my stomach muscles and there is a large black hole down the right side of my lower mouth. Is it necessary to be made after such an operation for a little nervous on the consumption of eg colas, as I have a close relationship with (I am familiar with syreskader, so it is not part of my question) but is there any kind of food or beverages at any time may not come into the open crater?
Sincerely Cæcilie
Answer:
Dear Cecilia

Grants for ceramic bracket
19th September 2011
Filed in Grants and Finance
Question:
Hello dentist!
I am young boy aged 17 who are about to correct my smile and my jaws. Right now I'm sitting with a sign with cleft palate clamp to expand my upper jaw. Then I have put train tracks and corrected my teeth. Since I'm still under 18, it is all paid by the municipality.
Now I looked at my second year of high school, and I would be much happier for a little more discreet headband. My dentist offers probably an "interior" togskinne. Now my question, Is this something I can get that 17th years of municipal account? Or will it to pull your wallet out?
My cousin in the U.S. also has tracks, but he has normal railway tracks at the bottom and top, he has a togskinne pottery. Are these ceramic rail way something can get done in Denmark? And if you can, it is again at the town or at their own expense?
Thanks in advance
Sean
Answer:
Dear Sean

children 5 years

Filed in Children
Question:
My grandson at 5 years has a few holes in the teeth, but do not like to get the mask on so he can get nitrous oxide. He sits well up in his chair but when the mask is approaching, he is very sad. Why can not they give him something soothing before he is to have the mask on? I've heard other dentists do. Dentists are talking about hypnosis?? What can you do the boy no one gets a total fear of dentists. ?
Answer:
Dear Susanne
There are many ways to treat a child who is afraid. There are also several opportunities to give the child something comforting in dentistry. The cases which are quite impossible to treat in the dental chair, may be referred for dental treatment under general anesthesia, but there is much to this happening. I think you should have a chat with dentists who treat your grandchild to hear what the options are and why they might. does not make use of them.
Hope you can use my answer.

Hello
By prior root canal treatment was 17 January 2011 placed a crown on my molar. (Price £ 5119). By Dentist inspection August 24, 2011 were found inflammation in the tooth root and bone loss in the leg. The tooth was removed on 30 august (price £ 1000). The price for installation of a bridge will be of $ 14 thousandth This is the same clinician who performed the crown treatment and extraction of the tooth. There's just the problem that the clinic has changed ownership on 1 May 2011. Follows the warranty on work performed by the owner to owner. Or can you just wash your hands and fold. How and who can complain. Is there any possibility of damages.
Sincerely
Bente
Answer:
Dear Eleanor
I must be you answer guilty. But I do not think that 14,000 crowns is unreasonable for a bridge. Try to talk but your new dentist if you have the opportunity to get some reduction in price because of the problems you've had in the same region.
There is usually no guarantee of dentistry.
Your new dentist should be able to inform you of your appeal, you can also read more about here: Patientombuddet

pain / inflammation after tooth extraction
19th September 2011
Filed in Pain and Anesthesia
Question:
I hope you can help me with an explanation of the following:
I have a plastic filling in right under the mouth (cheek teeth), which repeatedly has been built up because of the tooth was well worn and not much left.
but it happens to break something off again and go enough with it for too long until I get a sudden pain in the tooth and it looks like the neck and ear.
comes to the dentist, which takes an image x-rays which do not show inflammation, and the hole is made again with the plastic, which is quite a large tooth.
after 2 days it's crazy with pain .. get penicillin on a Tuesday and Friday, I must stay at the dentist ... where it is either root canal or tooth extraction ... I choose the latter because of the worn teeth, etc.
dentist tooth looks so great a hole in the middle of the tooth as he says goes down to the nerve
is there inflammation in the roots and the jaw? and a root canal would have been better? or what does it mean??
but despite the draw ... I still get terrible pain and could soon be in some places, eat lots of painkillers each day.
is thick lower jaw and feel the glands are swollen and the ugly pain running up along the neck next to your ear and the back of the head and temples.
come back to the dentist and he looks after there are clots of blood Cost tooth, but it's not ... but talk about a ensym and bones ... did not understand this completely .. there are loose pieces of bone? was put gauze with clove down ... did not think it takes the pain enough?? and he talked about maybe going to every day?
He explained something that had to grow something on the bone before the pain would not stop ...
but can you explain me a little more about it last?? went so fast so I could not follow all of this ..
thought you just went to the dentist and got a tooth out and then it was over ;-( never had such problems before?
it's because I've gone too long with the hole or tooth wear? (I am 55 years old)
just forgot the dentist said that about 1 in 10 got those genes?
MVH Mia
look forward to your reply ![]()
Answer:
Dear Mia
They call it "dry alveolar" or "alveolitis sicca dolorosa" which is what gives you so many genes now. It happens rarely. When you pull a tooth out, formed a blodkoagle where the tooth has been. It grows over time into the blood and eventually is completely filled with bone and mucosal again. Rarely it happens that this blood clot is lost. When this happens, the bone bar, and this gives so much pain because of that out through the bone there's a lot of nerve endings that are very sensitive. The dentist can alleviate this pain by putting eugenol into this empty alveoli (here, where the tooth has been sitting). Forålet of this is to "burn" the nerve endings of which relieve the symptoms somewhat. It also helps to rinse well in its socket. Your symptoms should be declining, and you can get a prescription for some stronger pain killers to your dentist.
A speedy recovery.
Hope you can use my answer.

Transparent clamp
19th September 2011
Filed in Other Questions
Question:
Hi,
I am a girl of 18 who need braces within the next month. It's not something I look forward to, but it is part of a treatment that include also includes a jaw surgery.
I have searched a little on the web where I have seen that it is possible to get a hanger that is more "transparent" and goes more at one with teeth.
Throughout my treatment is paid by the state when it was started when I was under 18, but they would wait with treatment until they thought my jaw was fully developed.
Now my question then, is whether there could be chances of the state also will pay for the "transparent" bracket?
And if not, how much should I even expect to pay for it?
If I decide me for the "transparent" frame, when and how should the dentist know?
Answer:
Dear Trina
I think you should ask the dentist to treat you. I can not say anything about what options they have.

Bro 3 joints
19th September 2011
Filed in Teeth
Question:
I have made a 3 part bridge, the posterior molar + the next 2 in the mouth.
When I chew with the 3 part bridge, it does not seem quite right - Did not quite the same bite. It is as though it harder to chew on the side where the bridge is part 3.
Externally, my teeth nice tightly closed, but when I feel with your tongue, I can feel there is air between the teeth (at the 3 part bridge) on the "inside". At the other side where my real teeth are the teeth with no air on the exterior and interior side.
May there be space between the teeth inside?, If not the symptoms and damage it can cause?
Answer:
Dear Flemming
I can not comment on without seeing you in the mouth. I think you should visit the dentist when you have made your bridge.
Hope you can use my answer.

Filed in Complaints
Question:
I have as a child has braces on the teeth (dental palate and neck pull) I have after I filled 18s had problems with my one wisdom tooth in the mouth (had the second surgery out before I filled the 18s) It turns out that there is no room for the tooth and the tooth has been round / curved possibly due hoops. The tooth is such that it becomes difficult to get out, because it sits very close to the nerve, and that I was risking an injury to the nerve, where it should be removed.
Is it possible for me to get a replacement for my tooth is now causing problems because of previous treatments?
Regards Christina
Answer:
Dear Christina
All treatments are given from which it is best for the patient in the given situation. You can investigate why your tooth is not removed early, but I doubt that you can claim compensation.
