I feel that my crown and bridge might be loose. What can I do?
Q. I have four crowns on my front teeth that were originally placed there when I was 18 ( now I’m 58) About four years ago a dentist replaced one tooth by a bridge, and also performed an apexectomy which left a “ledge” above the tooth. Now the whole area is feeling mobile but specifically the crown which is holding the bridge. As these are my front teeth I am very anxious about my appearance but the teeth. What can I do ? I don’t have a lot of confidence in my dentist. Thank you,
A. It sounds like your bridge is failing. You should either see your existing dentist or another as soon as possible as the bridge may drop out. you should try to find a dentist who offers implants as this might be your best option if the bridge has failed
