I have batteled normal teeth problems such as cavities all my life
Q. I am a 32yr old woman who has batteled normal teeth problems like cavities all my life but nothing to major aside from 1 root canal.I recently had teeth 20 and 28 extracted…and have a feeling that 2*which had a root canal) and 14 will have to be removed. Im interested in replacing the missing teeth especially after reading how the surronding teeth can shift over time. I am unsure as to which type of replacement to get….any ideas?
A. Implants are good for missing teeth especially if you don’t want to drill down the adjacent teeth for a bridge. Implants also stimulate the bone reducing later shrinkage. they can also be placed at the same time as the tooth is removed. Tooth 28 is your wisdom tooth so replacement is probably unnecessary
Hope this helps Andrew
