How much should it cost to have capped teeth corrected?

Thursday, December 2nd, 2010
Q.

About 20 years ago I had the front 4 teeth capped on my top row. At the time of treatment I got an infection which shifted from tooth to tooth eventually leading to the dentist having to drill a hole in the back of the tooth to release the pressure/pain. Eventually it settled down but it has left a lump on my gum and the tooth below has shifted down making it look unsightly and the tooth is loose. The caps are also thick looking and they look like horses teeth making it unbearable for me to smile. I visited a cosmetic dentist about a year ago to see if I can put this right as it has destroyed my confidence and he quoted me £7,500 which would include xrays. I can’t afford this amount. Can you give me any advice? Thanks.

How much would it cost to have two implants done?

Thursday, December 2nd, 2010
Q.

I have recently had an upper left root filled molar shear off and next to it there is an old gap where a tooth is missing. I need some sinus filling as the jaw shows up as thin in the x rays. If I have both implants done at the same time would you have any idea of cost?

Is it normal to have had a crown break twice in three years and would any warranty exist?

Friday, November 26th, 2010
Q.

I had a crown fitted in July 2007 and the post has snapped. This is the second time this has happened to me. Am I unlucky or is this a common occurrence? Also do these crowns come with any guarantee because I’m now facing a bill of £2500+ for an implant.
