Monday, November 22nd, 2010
Q.

I recently had a bad fall and damaged my front teeth. One of them was removed by my dentist but he had alot of trouble doing it and he has left the root in. I now have a gap and would like it filled. Can a dental implant be secured by the remaining root instead of drilliing into the jawbone?

A.
Very unlikely

I was told a while back that I have bad peridonist and would lose my teeth and be unable to have implants as my bone would not support them, I have now had my two front upper teeth taken out and a denture fitted which I am not getting on with I have now heard that you can have treatment to enhance the jaw bone can you tell me if this is possible and the cost implications of this thanks,

Q.
I am 60 and have two wobbly teeth, as luck would have it they are the top two at the front. My dentist wants to remove and replace with a denture, but I have got quite attached to them!

What procedures are available to reconstruct my broken teeth?

Friday, November 19th, 2010
Q.
Hi. I have fron teeth with two upper ones broken at gum level. No others except some broken gum level side ones. I had a dental bridge about a year ago but it fell off and the teeth under it are now at gum level and black. I’m diabetic and horrified of visiting a dentist because i don’t know what is going to happen. Kindly let me know of the procedure that will be followed and if I will be able to have clip ons or will all my teeth have to be pulled out? Many thanks for your help.,

Do I need to get an implant fitted straight after having a tooth extracted?

Thursday, November 18th, 2010
Q.
My back molar was extracted and then the 2nd molar broke (there is 1/4 left). I have had a root canal, but now there is a vertical fracture and I need to get the tooth extracted and replaced with an implant. I was trying to wait for about 6 months but now the remaining tooth is breaking which will leave only the root. Can I leave the root in until I am ready to have my implant which will be in about 6 months. There was an infection forming so the dentist gave me some antibiotics. What can be done? My dental surgeon likes to do implants within 10 days of extractions but I cannot afford it.,
