my 2 bottom front teeth are loose, i was told i need a bridge and those teeth have to come out , and the teeth next to them also because they are not strong enough to hold the bridge so the bridge will be attached to my canine teeth i was told this is the right thing to do. please help because this is costing alot of money i have no insurance. also i am have deep root planing to clean teeth before i go ahead with the extraction and the bridge
Hi Doctor Moore, I have had a dental bridge for 25 years replacing six of my top teeth in all, 2 of my front teeth are missing and the bridge is supported by 2 other teeth on either side and 2 fake teeth in the centre. I am very lucky that the bridge has lasted so long but I feel that it is coming to the end of its life. I can’t afford the almost £3000 it will cost to replace (it cost me £600 private 25 years ago) so what will be my alternative? Can I get a NHS bridge to replace the one I had done privately? I don’t know what else I can do, I simply cannot afford the £3000 in one go, unless some sort of funding arrangement or finance scheme can be arranged. Thank you ever so much for any advice you can give to me, I’m at a loss now.
