Can you please advise me on the possibility of getting implants to avoid my cyst problems?

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
Q.
I most appreciate your advice. I am 28 yrs. old and yesterday, was told by a facial surgeon that I have two large cysts above my front teeth, over 4 in total. I have already had one cyst removed above one side last year and now considering implants so this will not occur again. My 2 front teeth, in any case are crowns. The doctor recommended I try to “save my teeth” and just have a similar operation as before and in the possible event that it does reoccurs, get implants. What are your thoughts please? I have had all the scans and the cysts are very noticeable on view of the scan. If I were to have the implants, how long would this take to heal and could they be put in at the same time as the extractions are done? Many thanks for your help.,

Can CEREC get me the white and flat crowns that I want?

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010
Q.
Hi, I’ve had 12 teeth in my top set all crowned on 2 occasions. 1st time they were great, but I wanted a whiter colour. 2nd time they came out grey looking, and I’m not keen on the shape of some of them. I would like flat white (not translucent) , even teeth. I know they look false, but it’s what I want. Can this be done with CEREC? How long do CEREC crowns last for? Can I get the whole lot done in a short time? Thanks,
A.
