If I got a denture to replace a broken crown, would I be able to have an implant later on if I didn’t like it?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
I had a seven crowns fitted in 1978 to replace my front teeth. On monday one of these crowns snapped off leaving the remainder of the tooth insitu. My dentist told me that an implant would be quite expensive and suggested a denture on a plate which is currently being made on the NHS. He told me that in a week or so time he would need to remove the remainder of the tooth and fixtures from that area. What I would like to know is if this is done and I cannot get on with the denture could I then have an implant done, should I find somewhere reasonably priced. Many thanks,
A.

My dentist said that a denture is my only option to address a dislodged tooth. Is this true?

Monday, August 16th, 2010
Q.
I have a bridge which is one front tooth a missing tooth then the next tooth forming my bridge. I have had this for some 37yrs. Last yr a had a blow to the mouth that knocked the middle tooth out of my bridge and dislodged the front tooth so it is out of line and slightly loose. My dentist has fitted me with a denture, which I hate and do not get on with at all. My dentist tells me this is my only option. i know it is difficult to have an opinion without seeing the problem, but do you think this could be made to look good and also feel good without breaking the bank. i look forward to your comments.,
