What treatment can I have to replace old looking bridge?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hello Dr Glaister, I have had the same bridge on my bottom front teeth for about 15 years (It’s a Maryland bridge). When I had it done it was the best thing ever and improved my confidence but now it’s really looking dated and too obvious. What I was wondering is, do you have to change a bridge after a few years? Also I would like to have this bridge removed and placed with some thing more up to date because I know cosmetic dentistry has come a long way in the last 15 years! Would dental implants be best? What would you suggest? This has bothered me for many years but I have done nothing about it but this summer I have my sisters wedding coming up and would really like to do something finally.,

Is maryland bridge good replacement for missing teeth?

Thursday, February 18th, 2010
Q.
My son is missing two teeth. He is too young to have implants (17 y.o. and still growing). I understand that a Maryland Bridge would be a good option and that one using Zirconium is best as it is white rather than the dark metal used in conventional Marylands. What is your opinion and do you offer this type of bridge? thank you!!,
A.

Am I spending more than required for fixing my grinding problem?

Friday, December 4th, 2009
Q.
I have bridge that was replaced by my general dentist last year. Since then, I had a lot of problems because when the molar (#31) was grind down, it exposed the nerve. I had root canal done. However, after the rct, I was still having pain. The endodontist told me she was not able to get through one of the canals because it was blocked & curved. I went to another endodontist who recommended a retreatment. The tooth feels a little better, with some sensitivity. The bridge is always getting loose because there is not much tooth to hold the bridge. My dentist is recommending a crown lengthening. I am afraid I am spending too much money on this tooth, but would it really be worth it.

A.
It may be that the situation i… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
