Would a Bridge Solve My Dental Problems?
Q.
I have six upper front crowns due to tetracycline staining. They are four years old. One of them has completely broken including the tooth. The others will probably follow suit so I wanted to have all six teeth removed and have a bridge fitted so I no longer have to worry about the next expensive disaster. Embarrassment too. Please tell me this is reasonable. I am 51 and allergic to several dental bonding agents too.

Hi, thanks for reaching out. A bridge might not be the end of your problems. I would probably suggest implants for either just the broken one or all the upper crowns. Ask your dentist for a full assessment for implants to see what the other options might be. Kind regards, Andrew.
