Q. I have bone loss, non smoker all my life and no medical conditions. I am awaiting 3 top front teeth extrations (have been waiting 2 years), one hanging on by a small thread! hopefully I will be measured for a small plate. Taking daily pain relief and limited in what I can eat and very embarassing talking to patients myself as, I have a fractured tooth and it has dropped. Am I able to have implants if I have bone loss? was offered by dental hospital to have teeth splinted, but was told not a pretty sight, what do you think? Kind Regards

A. It sounds like implants might be the best option although you’ll need x-rays and an assessment to decide if you’ll a suitable candidate. Let me know if you’d like me to take a look.
