I dont have enough bone to have dental implant what are my options?

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009
Q.
My dentist has referred me to a surgeon for dental implants. As I have several teeth missing there is not enough bone and this will need to be increased. My dentist has said that this can be done under local anaesthetic with a synthetic material but my consultant wants to remove bone from my hip under a general anaesthetic. The first option is obviously more appealing to me. I would be grateful for your opinion.

Bone is taken from the hip whe… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Would it be possible to pull the teeth and put in implant denture on the same day

Monday, August 3rd, 2009
Q.
I am 55 and only have 5 front teeth on top and 1 back tooth and each side on the bottom. I am not worried about getting the top denture, but I have a tiny bone ridge on the bottom. Except for the 2 teeth to extract, the others have been out for a year. When I go can they pull the 2 teeth and put in the implant denture on the same day.

How long can we wait to get the implants done?

Saturday, August 1st, 2009
Q.
Thanks for your time today. I live in the United States. My husband had a back upper tooth extracted in March this year. Because of cost of an implant 2,000.00 We wanted to find a cheaper way. We found University of Texas Dental which will only charge us 800.00! But because of waiting lists we will not be scheduled a consultation till October. Is this too long of a wait to get the implant done? Our primary care dentist said to wait no longer than three months.
