I have been told I need a sinus lift to begin the process for an implant,what would be a ballpark figure for that procedure.

Hi am having 2 shorter implants without need for a sinus lift on one side of my upper jaw, I paid 125 quid for the special xray at Dental Care Plus in the South West, in Bradley Stoke, Bristol (Dental Implant Centre); I have to have a sinus lift on other side next year in order to have a dental Implant on that side as bone has deteriorated/dissloved, hope this helps 🙂 Oona

hello there i would really, really like to have a full set of gold teeth, and just wondered if tht was possible with implants? I guess i could just get crowns but I feel that implants would last a great deal longer and look better. What do you think? and im guessing itll be VERY expensive, but could you give me an estimated cost? thanks very much and help you can give would be really great.

Hi. If you have natural teeth present then I would recommend crowns. Implants are the last treatment option available and having your own teeth is the best option. The cost really depends on the number of teeth involved. I hope this helps.

My 12 year old daughter has just seen an orthdontist , who has said that one of her adult teeth has no root , which he did say was quite rare. He has now referred her to the dental hospital for their opinion , will they be able to save this tooth , as she is now panicing thinking that she is going to have a false tooth put in. Many thanks. the tooth in question is next to the her main front teeth .

Hi and thank you for your questions. I’d love to be able to advise you but I’d need to see an Xray to give you an accurate answer I could assist you further with a consultation and a second opinion Kind regards

Im 27 yrs old and I have a partial denture to replace a missing tooth at the front. Ive been wearing this for over 7 years it is really irritating my gums and causing me pain. Everytime I speak to my dentist about it he keeps changing the subject im an nhs patient.and I appreciate how much this cost aloughth I dnt feel like I should be discriminated against because of this. This is really getting me down and affecting my self confidence. help.

Dear Enquirer, Dental implants are one solution for a missing tooth and they are not available under the NHS, so you are not being discriminated against. Do read up more about this treatment on this site and ask your dentist for a quotation. Regards,

Reply to Kiana; change your dental practice, find someone else and ask then for a fixed bridge on the front as a bridge is very successful on the front; there are 2 types; a Maryland bridge which is a false tooth with wings on the back which are glued to teeth on either side at the back of them; or a 3-unit bridge which works by three crowns fused together and the middle one covers the gap (teeth on either side are filed down a little and crowned); it should be covered on NHS but it varies from dentist to dentist; if you pay is still alot cheaper than an implant; good luck hope this helps, but CHANGE YOUR DENTIST NOW !!!! He/she sounds dodgy 🙂

I wonder if you can help? I have had 3 Bicon implants for 2 years now and 2 of them have come loose. I have of course seen a dentist but he now only deals in screw type fitments and mine are not the screw system. Do you know of cases where implants have come loose or out and do you have a suggestion of a procedure that can be done to solve the problem? Unfortunatley my dentist who fitted the implants has returned to Australia and although the surgery has a replacement he does not do Bicon and has tried to tap the teeth back in whiccch worked for a few days, But have now come loose again. Hope you can help? Regards

Google Geoff Pullen @ Pullenteeth, he will sort you out as he is a big bicon user and a nice guy.

hi could i have a price for top and bottom implants i dont like my teeth and have lost a lot all faith in my dentist. its like he is not interested because i dont have to pay very disappointed when i ask him questions no i cant do this no icant do that he dosent even give me a scale and polish on a regular basis i asked him about marks on my teeth and he aid he wouldnt be able to get them off wish i know isnt true thank you look forward to your reply.

Implants are used for people with missing teeth or for replacing teeth that require removal They still need regular maintenance and care from a dentist. My advice would be to speak to another dentist to find out all the options you have to improve your teeth as it might not be just implants that you need.

I have lost 2 teeth and need my front tooth re venered where can i get this work done on nhs? and is this work available on the nhs and where can i find a dentist to do the work as i have lost confidence in my own, i have lost all confidence since losing my teeth i thought my dentists would of fixed them instead he chose to take them out and give me teeth on plastic dentures which i find very uncomfotable and have a speech impediment with them in

Hi Dental implants are not available on the NHS. If you wished this procedure then you would have to seek a private dentist.

i went to my dentist and ask about treatment as i need my full top teeth out,he said i couldnt have any implants ect without lookin or consultation so can u get certain stuff on nhs and pay to cut cost and wot treatment could i have done if my top teeth are removed any help would be great as last dentist wasnt very nice.

I’m sorry but you can’t get dental implants on the NHS, however you maybe able to sort out some preliminary treatment such as extractions and dentures prior to the implants

how much cost change my all teeth to teeth implantants? Can you make better price forme?

I got my four front teeth knocked out 9 years ago playing sports. My original teeth were put back in and then eventually veneers were fitted. I have noticed over the past year my teeth becoming very loose and ‘wobbly’, my dentist has informed me that there are no roots left on any of the teeth. What would be the best thing for me to do next? An also how much it would cost to get implants fitted on theses four teeth? I am worried my teeth are going to fall out very soon.

i would think implants are the best option.

I have gum disease. I have been treating for this about 3 years ago however, due to my absolute fear of the dentist and psychological upset it has caused to me i have been too afraid to go back. I am in my 20’s and my gums have now receded quite badly exposing a lot of my teeth (especially the front ones). I was told that when my teeth fall out the only option will be to have dentures! is this correct?

I would consider treatment with a gum specialist under sedation. If that isn’t successful them implants would be a better option than dentures

I would like to have dental implants… I am 21 Years old and my teeth are really bad… A few are rotting and the others all have wholes… My front tooth has a very big chip… Iv always had bad teeth as I was never prompted to brush them when I was younger… I always thought I could just ignore it but something needs to be done as it’s really affecting my confidence… I wanted to know if I could have the dental implants and pay monthly as I wouldnt be able to afford it in 1 big lump sum… Thank you and hope to hear from you soon

although i am only 23 years old i have been told that i need to have one of my front teeth taken out due to gum disease. I have an NHS dentist so the only things they can give me are a bridge, which i don;t really want, because my dad has one and it ruining the teeth next to it. I would really prefer to have an implant, but know that the costs can be quite high. Will i be suitable for an implant and would i be able to split the cost of it up so i can pay it off gradually? thank you for your help

Try the NHS

I have been sufferign from periodontitis for many years. As a result, I have recently lost one molar on upper left (#17) and one molar on upper right (#26). I also have horizontal bone loss around many teeth. My questions are: 1. Is there a minimally invasive painless sinus lift procedure available? 2. is it possibel to have sinus lift procedure & implant placement at one sitting? 3. Is it possible to regenerate bone when there is horizontal bone loss?

There are different techniques for sinus lift and the best one is the one that works for your situation and in the hands of the particular operator. If you have a reasonable amount of bone I would place the implant at the same time- say 7mm height, that works well.
