I can’t have an implant because of the tooth stuck in my gum, what can be done about this?

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010
Q.
I have a tooth stuck inside my top gum above a gap, tooth recently pulled out, the plan was to have an impnat to replace the one pulled out, but now the dentist is saying he cant put in an implant as this tooth is in the way and he cant pull it out as it is is too far up in my mouth and would need a plate over it, again not allowing an implant. What can be done?,

Would be sensible for me to have the root extracted and have a bridge done now, then a bone graft and implant later on?

Monday, April 12th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I had an accident recently in November 2009 where I fractured the root of my upper front left tooth and have had it extracted (with the root still left in place-this was done in case I was to have an implant). I am now looking into my options for either a bridge or an implant. At this stage I am considering getting a bridge (due to both money and time restraints) but would like some advice on the implications of removing the root now for the bridge and whether this will affect me having an implant at a later stage in any way? Could you please advise me and give your opinion whether it would be sensible for me to have the root extracted and have a bridge done now then a bone graft and implant later on? Kind Regards,

What can I have to replace partial denture?

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010
Q.
I am 34 years old and when i was 19 my boyfriend was playing around with a gun and it accidentally went off in my mouth and shot 4 of my teeth out…..at the time they thought it was agood idea to give me implants after the procedure was done they said it wasnt a good idea because i had lost so much bone and gum so i have been living with a partial for 16 years. It is miserable and humiliating and I have not smiled in a photo since i was 19 i know that it is going to be expensive but if i just know in my head that SOMETHING can be done would make me feel better. I would save for it for the next 15 years if i have to. Its caused relationship problems, me being insecure and total humiliation……please tell me what i can do besides these ugly embarrasing partials my dentist has always told me there is nothing i can do and i refuse to believe that with todays technology there has to be something. Please help me im desperate>,

Has bone graft failed?

Thursday, January 14th, 2010
Q.
Hello, I had a bone graft to UL1-3 area 10 days ago, however the site doesnt seem to be healing properly as i can see material beacuse the gum is not closed. My dentist seem to think that gum will pull with time but my concern is how is it possible for gum to pull when there is such a big gum and nothing seem pulling it at the moment as stiches that holded two parts of gum came off. DO you think it is a good idea to stitch the gum again or shall i wait when it heels properly? I am just worried that the gum wont close on its own and bone graft will fail. Please advise. Thanks!!,

Need to fix my bite and get gum graft, please suggest.

Monday, December 7th, 2009
Q.
I am nearly coming to the end of invisalign treatment and have found that my top front teeth have gone forward and caused me to have a bit of an overbite. Also my lower left canine gum has receded, which must be due to brushing too hard as I don’t have gum disease. Will invisalign refinements be able to push my front teeth back a bit? or is there any other treatment that can fix my bite? Where can I go to get a gum graft, as it is causing me a lot of anguish.

A.
I guess refinement might help … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
