Q.
I had a bridge fitted which included 1-4R + 1-4L to replace my 2 front teeth (8 teeth in total upper) in 2005. Unfortunately, there is a gap between the bottom of my teeth and the top of the ceramic bridge (behind) and I am worried about the life expectance of MY teeth as they are very difficult to floss at the back. Feels like the bridge was tilted during the fitting. The dentist that did the work relocated to South Africa after the work was done and I have been unable to get my new dentist to take me seriously (not his forte)other than ‘looking after them’. Please advise me if I aught to find another dentist? (very scarce in this area). Is it possible to have a bridge refitted? How much would it cost (about)? I would apreciate any advice you could offer me, type of dentistry etc. Many thanks
