Q.
I had an apisectomy roughly ten years ago and have 2 caps on my front teeth. However I have been told that the root is still infected and that I require another operation but there is not a high success rate. What other options are available to me? Should I go for implants or a bridge? I would like something that will last me for a longer time and look natural as my caps are very discoloured. Many thanks

How much would it cost to have a bridge to fill in two gaps

Thursday, October 8th, 2009
Q.
I’m asking on behalf of a friend how much he could expect to pay for bridges to fill in two gaps at the front of his teeth. the two top teeth either side of the main two front ones are only baby teeth and he has kept them in to prevent gaps after braces, but they are naturally a lot shorter and hinder his smile aswell as not being as stable as an adult tooth
