Hello Dr Hughes. I have a question for you: I have a lower plate with two back teeth on one side and one tooth on the other. Ideally I would like to replace this with dental bridges as the denture is not comfortable. My dentist has told me that it isn’t possible to have two teeth together replaced by a dental bridge. Can you tell me whether or not this is the case?
hi can you help i have buck teeth but the two teeth to the left are missing i feel very self consious and never show my teeth wen i smile please can you help as a result ov this problem i have missed out on so much as i find it difficult to talk to pleaple knowing that they are looking at my awful teeth i was considering having the two buck teeth removed and a part denture made for the four front teeth thank your for your time
can a metal very back tooth crown support a neighbouring false tooth w out a bridge to other tooth?i know the best thing is a bridge but to save cutting another healthy will one crown be strong enough? the missing tooth is second from d back so it will be tooth colour but the very back tooth can be metal because it cannot be seen then i will get partial dentures attached to the bottom very back tooth so the opposing tooth to the false tooth will be a denture many thanks for you time
Hello doctor,
hello Doctor
A few days ago I woke in the middle of the night choking on my dental bridge which had came off. I could not retrieve it, so waited for it to pass through. I was very nervous about this as I had read on internet that it could become lodged at different points in the digestive system. Finally after 5 days it passed through. I washed it, soaked it in soapy water over night, then brushed it with a light solution of bleach, then with vinegar, then soaked it in a solution of bleach for about 30 minutes, then rebrushed it with vinegar. My question is: does this santize it enough to be free from ecoli? Is it now safe to reuse? I cannot afford another bridge and it is not pleasant walking around with no front teeth on right side, also the pain from the bare roots apparently is heart wrenching. Please advise.
My husband has just had his 4 front teeth taken out & now wears dentures. His bone & gums are in terrible condition, but we have been told that he might be able to have injections to rebuild bone & gums, then have implants with a bridge! How long does this procedure take & is there an estimated cost. He has only had dentures for a few days, but I don’t think its suiting him. How long will he have to wait for the process to start. He doesn’t have any infection in his gum, so will he have to wait long? My husband is only 42 so dentures for the rest of his life is not an option! Help!
