Q. My question is this, I had an inplant put in next to a 3part bridge. Unfortunately it did’t tak. A few months later we tried agasin, and again it didn’t take. As the second implant was being put in, I could feel my brain rattling and that is no exageration. I left the office and my whole right side of my face swelled up, to the point that I stayed in my bedroom for 3-4 days in the dark. I was on antibiotics and pain meds, but nothing helped. My doctor came in on a sun to see me and I didn’t have parmacy coverage so he gave me a left over antibiotic from his sons. Now my bride was damaged and cracked, and I had to have my teeth pulled due to such infection under bridge. Also my implant on left side is abcessed. What should I do?
A. You need to see your dentist and discuss your way forward

Q. I have had numerous dental problems throughout my life. I did wear braces for about 6 years as a teenager..I am now 46 and my teeth have become buck again, which I hate. I have a hard time getting comfortable with a dentist and know I need other work as well. I do not think my teeth could hold up to braces again..do you think dental implants would be best solution for me? would they work if maybe I just got them on the 1st 4 fromt teeth?
A. Veneers may be a better solution and less drastic

Q. can you tell me the aproximate price of a dental implant.i want to do three.also,can the cost be made in payments?
A. Hi
Implants (which includes abutment and crown) cost approximately £2000. As you have more implants the price comes down per implant.
We do offer payment plans which allow you to spread the cost from 1 to 5 years.
If you would like to book a consultation, please contact reception on 01509 23 11 44.

Q. My upper back tooth had to be removed because it was cracked. My dentist and oral surgeon are recommending an implant. The reason is not for cosmetic purposes because it can’t be seen. The oral surgeon said an implant was necessary because the tooth below it would grow taller. But I still don’t understand the problem with that?? And I do have a tooth next to it with a large surface for chewing. I just had it pulled on October 16 so I don’t know what the comfort level will eventually be without an implant. My question is how important is it to have an implant on a tooth so far back and out of sight?
A. The problem is function and stability. As teeth are lost the surrounding teeth can become unstable and move. This can cause problems with teeth clashing when you eat that can break pieces off these teeth, gum problems can develop due to unstable contact points, your mouth can become less balanced overloading other teeth etc. My recommendation would be to have the tooth replaced

Q. I am considering implants in my lower jaw as I have lost all the double back teeth. They were havily filled and all abcessed and I had to have them removed. I grind my teeth at night and in the day and wonder if this would have been a factor in my losing them to abcesses. I have had a mouthguard in the past but don’t use one now. Would the tooth grinding adversely affect the implants? Thank you
A. Yes tooth grinding might damage the implant crowns. They will need to be made to fit into your bite very precisely, you might need to wear a bite guard to protect them during the night.

Many thanks.

Q. At the moment I have a 4 tooth bridge which is at the front on my upper teeth. It is a hinge which I have been told is broken so at the moment this is only supported on the one side which is on a post. I have been told by 2 dentists that as this is a large bridge I will now have to have a denture which although not happy have accepted this is the only solution. My problem that before I had my bridge had a plate and as have a strong gag reflex didn’t not get on with this at all also when I was eating it shifted as was most uncomfortable. I have been shown a denture that is metal and doesn’t seem to cover the roof of my mouth would this be a better option than the normal partial acrylic denture for me? I have been told that this is not available on the NHS? Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
A. hi many thanks for your email, my advice is to think about dental implants which are fixed and do not require a plate. the cost of a four unit bridge on two implants are approx £5000. msny practices do offer interest free credit to help finance the treatment.

Q. I am a 24 year old type 1 diabetic. As a result I suffer from gum disease, and 1 of my bottom front teeth has fallen out. I receive free NHS medical care and medication and was wondering if an implant is what I need and if it is available for me on NHS?
A. An implant would work well but it is unlikely that you would be able to have an implant on the NHS. You will also need to make sure your gum disease is controlled before considering a replacement tooth.

Q. Dear Dr Caplan, Could you help…. I had a bad tooth removed by my nhs dentist, the option for me was to have a cap tooth fitted and glued to the tooth next to it,,After fitting th tooth felt too big and I was told this was a normal feeling even though it also loooked too big, after only two weeks the tooth became loose and fell out, so I went to another dentist, the tooth was altered and refitted again by bonding mixture,, I was told again that the tooth would stay in for years.. only a few days later the tooth is again loose and I cannot eat antyhing on that side of my mouth in fear of it falling out again. Could you advise what I should do next Kind regards
A. The cause for stick on bridge failing is often due to the bite being incorrect. With you saying that the tooth feels too big this may well mean that it is in the way of your bite. ANother cause is that the bridge deos not fit sorectly or that the pressures from your opposing teeth are to great. You may need a new bridge or may be even an implant

Q. I am 21 years old and have a dental implant either side of my upper front teeth. I have had them for three years and am not happy with them. Originally they met my gums far higher than my other teeth which just looked wrong, so they then gave me new ones which had gum colour at the top of the tooth to look more in line. However it still looks pretty awful to me and I was wondering if anything else could be done about it. I think this was all because of lack of bone. Thank you.
A. Unfortunately this is a very difficult problem to solve now the implants are in place if there has been extensive bone loss prior to placing implants the bone would be rebuilt first, in your case the implants are present so to rebuild the bone the implants would need to be removed. This is a big step to take but is the only way to acheive the best aesthetic result the only other option might be to try a gum graft although the stability if this is questionable if the underlying bone has receeded.

Q. please can somebody help me i am 37 years old and had all of my teeth pulled out when i was 18 with 2 wisdom teeth so with not a tooth in my mouth i have worn dentures for nearly 20 years and as im sure you know what im just about to say i wont be able to have any more dentures due to no bone and gum left im getting quite distressed about this as the plates do not fit in my mouth now and the teeth on the plate have grinded so i cant eat or chew my face feels is collapsing.would i not be able to have this done on the nhs.can there be a positive outcome
A. Hi, many thanks for your email. the first thing that should be ascertained is how much bone you have generally i have found in my experiance that once a CT scan of the jaw bones is done, there is usally more bone in the jaws than you think. The next step once the true answer is known about how much bone you have is deciding on the the way the teeth are to be restored. th reason for the CT scan would be to see if you are a candidate for dental implants.
Preferribly four implant in each jaw would give you fixed teeth which would not require removing, the cost of which would be approx £12,000 per jaw.
Two implants per jaw fixed to a denture would be removable but when in very secure. the cost per jaw would be £5000
The alternative would be dentures which is what you already have, but with a better fitting surface and new teeth, these are not ideal, but cost wise may range from £1000 – £4000
There are many practices that offer interest free credit to help finance the treatment. hope this is helpful.

Q. I am 51 years of age and had a brace fitted approx 10 years ago. All of my teeth have been pushed in too far, resulting in a narrowing and picked look to my face. The dentist in question has admitted liability to negligence, but mostly to taking too many teeth out. I now have broken teeth and 2 bridges fitted in with super glue and a bad from of gum disease, with likely hood that I will lose most of my teeth. In th
e last couple of years I have been so embarrassed by my look and the constant failure of the bridges that I have been too ashamed to work. I am desperately looking for cosmetic dentistry that will permanently improve what has happened. I am an athletic type of person so really need implants that are strong and stable and long lasting. I have been to two other dentist pratices for a programme of treatment but both have proved not satisfactory for my long term needs. I am pretty sure I will need bone grafting and would prefer to have as many teeth replaced with implants and not bridges. My bite is also a problem and is causing me problems. I used to have a wide big smile the treatment with the brace has seriously changed my face and aged me quite considerably. I am now single as a result of this, so it has had a very dramatic effect to my life. My solicitor has been hopeless in all of this and is just wanting me to choose any dentist for work, which I am not willing to do, he will also need a programme of cost and upkeep etc. Please can you help.
A. You need to find a dentist in your area that can provide complex treatment of this type. Perhaps you should look on the ADI website for a dentist with the appropriate experience.

Q. I have had to have one side of my upper teeth removed, this has caused this side of my face to collasp and my mouth had lost definition and is drooping to one side, I look like I have had a stroke. Can you offer me any adice is this normal can this be corrected in any way so that both sides of my face are semetrical again.
A. hi many thanks for your email, when you lose teeth this can have a dramatic effect on the facial features on that area, unfortunately the only way to restore your face to some kind of symmetry would be to replace the missing teeth with either dental implants, bridge work if possible or a denture. hope this is helpful.

Q. Hello. Five years ago, my orthodontist informed me that I am missing both of my adult upper canines. I am currently 20 and, luckily, I am still in possession of my ‘baby-teeth’ but I fear that I may loose them within the next year. I’ve been told that I will need dental implants, and that they’re very expensive. Being a student, I’m already facing a large amount of debt. Is is possible to get this treatment on the NHS? My dentist has informed me that it may be possible to reduce the cost by having dentistry students perform the surgery. How much risk is involved if I choose to go to a teaching hospital, etc?
A. There should be no risk as the treatment could be performed under supervision of the tutor let me know how much you can afford as I run a course where we use patients to teach other dentists my e mail is implants@advancedentalclinic.com

Q. I have had a leaking abcess above my front left crowned tooth … some dentists say it is not a problem as the toxins can get out, but I have noticed that both Front teeth are now loose , is the infection eating into my bone ? I am considering a bridge as I cant afford implantology is that likely to be a problem .
A. hi many thanks for your email, if you have an abcess then the chances are the infection will be eating the bone. my advice is to get it sorted as soon as possible. a bridge is a good option to replace a missing tooth as long as the teeth holding the bridge are strong and healthy.
