What is the best tooth replacement long term option?

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I wonder if you could advise me please? I had a denture fitted 9yrs ago(upper front tooth) as I am absolutely terrified of the dentist and was offered this rather than root treatment. My dentist has now retired and I had an initial examination with a new dentist today. We discussed how unhappy I am with my discoloured teeth and as the dentist described: my patchwork fillings. He has recommended I opt for 4 crowns and a bridge to replace my denture. Or alternatively a dental implant and crowns. I am on quite a tight budget and want to get the best longterm value, however I would also like to be out of the dental chair asap as I am absolutely terrified! I would appreciate you opinion. Thanks,
A.

Can I have implants?

Friday, January 22nd, 2010
Q.
Dear Dr Moore I am a 28 year old female and have become quite depressed at the state my teeth are in at such a yougish age. I have always looked after my teeth but always seemed to have fillings, root canals, nerves remove etc everytime i visitied the dentist. I had a fixed brace when i was young and had 4 permanent molars removed since then my remaining molars have taken a beatin and I have just now had 3 roots removed from another set of molars due to the tooth dying or a crown continuosly coming out resulting in a broken tooth. as it stands i now have only 21 teeth remaining!! my concern is will my dentist recommend implants? as im starting to wonder how on earth ill chew food! all my front top and bottom teeth are intact. I am a single mum doing my nursing degree so I have a NHS excemption certificate but can I still have implants fitted?? many thanks,
A.
