What can I do to replace a missing tooth and correct the remaining teeth?

Q. Hi Dr, I have had a lot of problems with my teeth over the last few years, unfortunately through fault of my own by neglecting them. My front tooth decayed and fell out a year ago, and I’ve been too embarrased and financially unable to get it taken care of or corrected. I’ve been using various ways of filling the gap, one of which I’m ashamed to say is by using tissue, needless to say it’s ruined the shape of my remaining teeth, is very uncomfortable and it just looks awful. I want to get this problem fixed and my tooth corrected. I would like to know the procedure you would recommend and an estimation of costs involved. Please help. Thank you.,
A. it sounds like you are going to need extensive treatment so without a proper consultation I can’t really tell how much it would cost. If money is a problem you may qualify for a denture on the NHS and may not need to pay at all. Go to your local dentist and ask him to take a look for you
