I have lost all my bottom teeth and want cosmetic dentures

Saturday, July 5th, 2008
Q.
Over the last 12 months, I have lost all but 3 of my bottom teeth. I have dentures which are awful looking and ill fitting. I asked my dentist about cosmetic dentures, but am not sure he understood exactly the type I want, as he told me they would cost between £300 – £500, yet looking at internet sites they seem a lot more expensive. The type I am thinking of are the sort seen on tv shows such as 10 yrs younger. What sort of cost would I be looking at please.

My teeth have greyed after trauma and root canal

Friday, July 4th, 2008
Q.
I recently had trauma to 2 of my front teeth (front left and next left), and had root canals. The teeth have greyed and im having internal bleaching on the teeth. I have been advised that I could avoid crowning for a number of years and have spoken to people whose front tooth has lasted 15 years, the NHS dentist said I should not rush it anyway as i need to see how the root canals progress and whether they are successful. Im very depressed at the moment as the trauma was caused when I was assaulted. I have had a great life to date and only recently married. This has left a huge dark cloud over our lives and time in our new house. I have no other problems with my teeth and only ever had one filing. Now I cant bite down on food and my tooth colour has not returned to a satisfactory colour. Im scard of crowns and implants and with a high flying job cannot be out of work for long- is the cerec crown the way to go? We dont have much money at the moment with moving and the wedding so need the best solution for reasonable cost- please advise

I have lost a canine baby tooth which is hurting my confidence

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008
Q.
I have recently lost a baby canine tooth ( the adult tooth remains unerrupted in my gum) and am finding wearing the temporary denture very uncomfortable. I have been told that a bridge is not possible as the tooth by the gap is fragile so need to explore other options. Would I be able to have an implant- what are the implications of the adult tooth still being there and approximately what cost ? This is having a real affect on my confidence so need to resolve it – any other suggestions would be gratefully received!

Many thanks for your enquiry. … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I have an upper denture and lost a lot of teeth I can not afford dental implants

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008
Q.
Hello I have a partial upper denture and have lost a lot of teeth in the lower jaw. All the remaining teeth that are left were crowned approx 10 years ago. I cannot afford a lot of implants but am wondering if implanted retained dentures would be a possibility. I had a panoramic xray last year and that confirmed bone loss in the upper jaw. I am 53 years old and suffer from diabetes [insulin controlled]. I also take other medication, details of which can be provided if necessary. I would be most grateful for your opinion on what you would consider to be the best treatment for me.

Sunday, June 29th, 2008
Q.
Hello Dr Suri I’ve had a bridge at the lower rear left side of my mouth for many years and it needs replacing. It covers the area of 3 teeth. I have changed dentist who is recommending instead of having a new bridge,to have two crowns and a dental implant for the missing tooth in the middle. Is this the way forward?! Which do you consider to be the best option? I’m healthy in my mid-30\s.
