Ive a root twisted front tooth and i want to know what are the different size of implant ?

Monday, July 20th, 2009
Q.
Fifty years after damaging my front tooth the root twisted on New Year’s Eve and I now have a plate which I hate!! It stops whistling, affects speech and halves my eating pleasure. My (NHS) dentist says an implant would be C£1500. I am off to The Gambia in Sept. but research shows only certain ‘bore’ size/screws are used in the UK – can you tell me which so I can consider having the job done whilst there and any other implications to beware of? THANKYOU

I am interested in MAXI implants is it safe and how long do they last?

Sunday, July 19th, 2009
Q.
I am interested in having a MAXI implant, as according to my dentist it is a non-surgical, minimally invasive technique, avoiding cutting the gum, with far less trauma, and often painless healing. Placement can be carried out in minutes and the implant is immediately usable. The technique does not require a flap of gum tissue to be raised, and the implant is placed by means of a small perforation through the gingival tissue. Are MAXI implants safe and how long do they last?

A.
Maxi implants are really just … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Ive retained 6 milk teeth and implants is only option is there any insurance with covers implants

Sunday, July 19th, 2009
Q.
Dear Dr Moore, I am 29 and have retained over 6 milk teeth. X-rays revealed that I have no second teeth to replace them. Currently one is loose as my wisdom teeth has pushed it out of line and this is causing my bottom row of teeth to compact against each other. My dentist says implants are the only option, but I cannot afford them. He says I should get insurance, but every company I look at says that their insurance doesn’t cover implants. Could you suggest an insurance comapany that does? I can only eat on one side of my mouth and want to try and sort this out. Would insurers view this as a pre-existing condition and therefore not cover it? Please help

Most insurance companies don’t… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

My mother has dentures now is it okay to have 4 implants on the lower jaw and have bridges

Sunday, July 19th, 2009
Q.
My mother is 70 y.o. and has had dentures for over 20 years. However because of the poor quality (Soviet) of dentures and not being able to eat in them she’s eaten down most of the lower side bone. Dentists in a dental clinic in Dubai advised for the lower jaw to set 4 implants and put a bridge and denture on top of it. I would like to get a second opinion from you. Many thanks,

A.

Ive 3 teeth affected by gum disease can ive any treatment affordable than dental implant

Wednesday, July 15th, 2009
Q.
Hi there I have bad gum disease which has effected 3 teeth at the bottom of my mouth. I have been to my dentist today and she suggests false teeth which I am trying to avoid because of my age (30) She also mentioned that a mould may make the teeth fall out and that I would be without for ten days which I am devastated about (due to work and insecurity issues, I cant be without them) if I was too consider implants, could I keep my teeth until then and how quickly can it be done ?? Also would it be a problem with the sore gums etc ???? Is there any cheap options available as I really cant afford to have this done however I would be distraught and my teeth loss will effect my personality and confidence on a huge level .. is there any dentist training schools etc that need guinee pigs ?? I would really appreciate your help Thanks.
