Could the dental implants be placed at the time the teeth is removed

admin — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 06:33:35 +0000

Q. I am considering a complete lower jaw implant procedure that will involve removal of some remaining teeth. Would I have to wait for a healing period after extractions, or could the implants be placed at the time the teeth are removed.

A. If the bone is sound then place the plants at the same time if possible

I am assuming that my implants for full dentures causing neck pain.

admin — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 11:39:06 +0000

Q. I had mini implants for full dentures in August but have been experiencing severe pain in my neck head & ears for several weeks. Could this be caused by the implants?

A. It is unlikely it is coming form the implants but may be muscle spasm that could be due to how the dentures bite together. Obviously please see your implant dentist asap

What ball park figure would be acceptable for having implant?

admin — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 06:45:24 +0000

Q. I am 63, had five front teeth ( 4 incisors and one cuspid) removed between the age of 17 and 21. I have all my other teeth intact. I have never got used to a partial, and wondered if there was anything else I could try at my age and so long after removal. ie implants of some sort. I know that if there is not enough bone left it can theoretically be grafted from elsewhere, but realistically, do you think this is possible and what sort of ball park figure would I be looking at if it were?

A. This is possible but you will need a CT scan to be properly assessed. A ball park figure for this type of treatment would be !0k to 15K depending on how difficult the case is

Does health issues like high blood pressure and others have effect on dental surgery?

admin — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 06:17:35 +0000

Q. Would having very high blood pressure mean implants were dangerous, what other health problems would be a problem

A. If you have high blood pressure it is likely that you are on medication which would need to be taken into consideration with any surgery. Other health problems can be a potential problem such as diabetes, leukemia, Pagets disease etc and would also need to be properly asessed before treatment begins

Q. I am 58 and had all mt top teeth taken out on the advice of my dentist 30years ago.

A. Implants are definitely a possibility but you need to be assessed for available bone using a CT scanner and you may need bone grafts

Should I consider implants over braces I have time issues?

admin — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 05:52:52 +0000

Q. One of my front teeth is not aligned with the others because it was taken out a little bit late in my childhood years while removing the milk teeth. Now am 28 and I would like it aligned with the other teeth. Braces take a long time to realign teeth, thats why I wanted to choose a dental implant. What is the process of getting a dental implant and its advantages or disavantages over the other methods.

A. Braces can take as little as 8 weeks to realign your front teeth – far better than an implant

admin — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 05:35:04 +0000

Q. Hello, my mother who is 76 wants to have her front teeth made less prominent.she has been told by her dentist that dental in plants would help and also to have teeth whitening. I was woundering if porcelain cosmetic crownds would be just as good, also cheaper.

A. This may be the case if the teeth underneath are healthy and the gum health is good. A diagnostic waxup to assess the position of teeth will be necessary before proceeding – hope this helps
