i have a cracked tooth after a filling do I need an implant?

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008
Q.
I had a filling replaced on the advice of my dentist. When the filling was drilled out she told me my tooth had cracked in the median plane (lower molar I think number 2- it’s the one that my brace was attached to) the tooth is now causing me real pain – the dentist says it has now partly cracked from the gum side and is infected – the only option is extraction and tooth implant. Is there any other option available – £2000 for something that stemmed from a filling replacement is a bit hard to swallow? How would I seek a second opinion? Many thanks for your time – it is much appreciated, A

bone loss around front teeth bridge or implants?

Sunday, February 10th, 2008
Q.
I have had been told by the Roayl School of Dentistry in Belfast that the bone supporting my two front teeth (both crowned due to injury as a child)is wasting away. I don’t know where to go from here as I would like to have either a bridge or implants …. probably a bridge as it would be less expensive. Would this be feasible ??

Can a dental bridge be placed in the back teeth by a regular non-cosmetic dentist ?

Thursday, January 31st, 2008
Q.
Dear Dr Kailesh Solanki, Is fitting a bridge, even for a gap in the upper row of one’s back teeth always a issue of cosmetic dentistry? Would that mean that my dentist who does not specialise in cosmetic dentistry would not be able to do the work safely?
Mr A.H

Can you tell me what is better for my missing tooth… a Maryland Bridge or a Pontic Bridge?

Thursday, January 31st, 2008
Q.
Hello Dr Riten Patel, I was hoping you could shed some light with your expertise on the best treatment to replace my missing front tooth. I know you can have implants or dentures or bridges and I think I am going to go for the bridges because it is a cheaper option than the implant and I cannot afford an implant at the moment. My question is that some people talk about maryland bridges and pontic bridges what is the difference and what is the best one for me? Thanks for taking the time to read this in advance. Kind regards J

I had a dental bridge after an accident and I an not happy with the work can i do anything to correct my smile ?

Thursday, January 31st, 2008
Q.
Three and a half years ago I had a bridge fitted to my front 6 toop teeth. I haven’t been happy with the work but never dared complain about the work done as it was a reconstruction after a accident. The teeth are not straight and run upwards towards the right side. My tounge shows more than it should and I don’t smile in photo’s because I don’t like my smile. Could anything be done to correct my smile? L
