How much would it cost to get my implants replaced?

Wednesday, July 13th, 2011
Q.

Thinking of having the whole of my top teeth replaced my implants could you give me any idea of the total cost of this or is it possible to have a few done at a time. Is there any reasons why I may not be able to have them. I have a very old bridge at the moment which I have recently had repaired but this is very temporary so I need to make a decision soon as I am unable to eat anything hard to cause it to break again which I am very worried about. Dentures are not a option for me. How long a process is it for the implants to be complete?

Regards
Jane

Who’s the best dentist to fix my teeth?

Wednesday, July 13th, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr.Hughes,
I had a bad accident whilst  I was living abroad for a short while at the end of last year. As a result I received problems such as fractured roots to some top teeth, I also had to have a bridge removed and teeth implanted which Im not currently happy with. Two other teeth top left hand side are now badly abscessed which means in me being in a lot of constant pain, in result I have been told that these teeth may need to be removed. But as I am a Flight Attendant and we are not allowed to wear dentures leaving my only choice as implants. Although luckily Denplan have told me they will pay for all treatment including more implants but I cannot find the right dentist for me. Please can you help me.

How can I correct my overlapping teeth?

Wednesday, July 13th, 2011
Q.

Dear Dr Hughes,

I have noticed that my right hand front tooth is starting to slightly overlap the other tooth and I am wondering what my options are to correct this. Obviously I am not keen on a permanent brace which would be installed for a year or more, I notice the 6 month option on this website.

For your information, as a child I had several teeth removed due to overcrowding, I believe 6-8 teeth were removed, this involved a hospital over night stay and general anaesthetic.

I presume I am best to address this as soon as possible before it becomes a more significant overlap.

Any advice you can offer would be appreciated.

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011
Q.

I have receeding gums and sensitive teeth.eg eating icecream one day is fine the next terrible pain. always have sensitve teeth even when i have not ate or drunk anything for a couple of hours.wake up in the morning sensitive teeth not painful but pain always in the background. dentist told me my brushing is perfect but i have to admit many years ago i use to scrub my teeth very very hard hence why they are probably the way they are. hospital told me to see my dentist soon so that he can put something on my gums and use a type of light on them which will happen in a couple of weeks then back to hospital in october to see how they are. hop you can help as i want them whitened.

Are my veneers fitted correctly?

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011
Q.

Hello recently  I have just had veneers fitted  as one of my front teeth had died and had turned yellow .Also there was a gap between my teeth which has been closed slightly and the front four teeth have been capped . But now i cant close my mouth properly and the teeth rest on my bottom lip and my top lip sticks out more. The my teeth did do this slightly before I’d gotten veneers fitted but not as much as they do now . Also when i put my bottom and top lips together it feels as if I have to stretch my lip to get it to cover my teeth, for example when you stretch your lips to rub together after you’ve just put a fresh coat of lipstick on. Surely this cant be right ?
Thank you for your time

How much is it fro implants on my 4 missing teeth?

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011
Q.

Hello,

I have recently been told that I need to have a 2 implants fixed for four of my missing teeth. But to be honest I agree with my dentist as I have had a four tooth metal plate for a long time now. I am 50 years old. I went to a private specialist a few weeks ago and have been quoted for placement of two implants at £1,900 and £180 for extraction of broken canine.

In addition the cost for a four unit porcelain bridge is £3,600. In total this comes to £5,580 – which feels a lot for me and is slightly more than what I was expecting to pay. I would like to know if this sounds about right in your opinion?

Many thanks
