    Default in need of help please ...

    I was just after some help and your advice for the best route to slove the problem i have. Im not too sure on what work needs to be done to my teeth, but i think i need two implants.

    What happened was when i was younger i knocked out my front tooth and now several years later i want this corrected. The trouble is there is no gap for an implant, i have been told that it can be sorted by e mailing other doctors, but i want a real expert opinion and the best way to start sorting it out.

    Thank you for your time.

    Hi

    When this occurs, the only way to create space is by opening the gap by orthodontics i.e braces, invisalign, etc. Once the space is created then an implant can be placed.

    We have treated a number of cases like this with great success.

    which area do you live in and i would see if i know anyone in that area to recommend. You are basically looking for a good implant surgeon.
