How can I make sure that my dental implants are being done to the best standard?

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010
Q.

I’m currently going through 5 tooth implants. I’m very suspicious the dentists doing the work aren’t much good. Every time i go for an appointment the seem too interested in the next appointment and they keep leaving things to be done next appointment, One of the Titanium posts has been left bare, one of the plastic implants is slightly loose, that tooth seems to be too thin and the implant next to it seems to be too big, which looks ugly. Should i be worrying, particularly as this is costing a lot of money, i don’t expect total perfection but this does not seem right. and the of the large implants at the back is not straight and at an angle and is a bad food trap.

I am concerned about how natural implants look. Can you get a good gum line with implants?

Thursday, November 4th, 2010
Q.
I have two very large front teeth, and one side baby tooth. I have never been happy with my smile, and its effected every part of my life. Implants seem a good option, but I am concerned how natural they look, and my major concern is having a good gum line with the implants. Can you get a good gum line with implants?,

Dentist said he cannot build up implants enough to provide enough lip support. I have not been back since. What should I do?

Thursday, October 28th, 2010
Q.
Hi I was due to have implants approx 18 month ago. Full implant held denture for the lower and individual implants onthe top. The top partial denture I have now is built up at the front for lip support but after having all my impressions the dentist said that he cannot build up the implants enough to give enough lip support. This meant a full denture for the top which I must say I panicked about and haven’t been back since. I now need to look at my options again and may need to find another dentist. I was wondering how much the implants can be safely built up in this situation? Thanks,

Is the plate my only option because I have gum disease?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
I have Periodontal disease in my gums, which causes a lot of plaque to build up in my lower teath. I have a plate with three teeth in my top teeth, that don’t fit right, that has also pushed two teeth to the left and loosened them. I really want to take the rest of my teeth out. What I want to know is, is the plate my only option for both top and bottom because of the disease, or would I have an option of some kind of implants. It is also annoying to know what kind of insurance to go for to cover me for my treatment. Can you give me advice on what would be the best thing to do?,

I’m not suitable for dental implants so how about mini implants?

Tuesday, July 27th, 2010
Q.
Hello Dr. Tennent, I was trying to find current information about mini-implants in the maxilla to stablize a full denture. I’ve had a consultation and am not a candidate for traditional impants so I was wondering if mini-implants would be an option? What I’ve read online is confusing, some say they cannot be used successfully on the top some say they can. What is your opinion, sir? Thank you.,
