Hello im 17, and I dont have any big upper lateral inscisors, only 1 milk tooth lateral inscisor on the right… and so was given a brace from my orthodentist to make the gap on the left bigger, and to make a gap between my top tooth and the milk tooth so i can get a bridge fitted, however my dentist is saying i should get impants, and my orthodentist is saying a bridge, so i dont know what to do. Your help will be much appreciated, many thanks.
I have an infected root under a post and crown. The second set of antibiotics have helped but I am
Sure the infection remains as still jaw pain and slight swelling the course finishes in 4 days time. I understand a bridge or implant is the last options after extraction? I am
Unsure which way to go? I have a crown
Next to infected tooth and could this be used to do
Bridge? Or do I compromise tooth behind? With implants can I get any help as a student? I an really confused? Don’t want to leave a gap due to
Being unsightly! Are these my only options apart from a
Denture? Thanks
Hi My crown in the front of my mouth has broken taking the stump with it, Is it possible to get a implant done on this space andd if yes what is the minimum cost
hi,
I am 55 years old i have three missing teeth on the left bottom jaw my dentist has advised me implants but i am unsure as to go ahead with it as i am concerned about the pain and i am a smoker so will implants work on a long-term basis?
Hello Doctor Caplan, 3 years ago I knocked out my front right central incisor. The tooth was replaced at A’n’E but it failed to re-graft. Shortly afterward my 2 central incisors and left lateral incisor have had root canal treatment which has worked well up until now although the teeth are discoloring and are not straight. I am considering having 3 maybe 4 implants to replace my front teeth. Can you offer me a ball park figure on the cost of this treatment? I understand the need to take a closer look before quoting an accurate price but I just want an estimate.
Thanks
more than 3 years ago,my 2 front teeth were prepped for one cap and one lumineer.the prep for the cap was too short and i was sent to an endodonist for post. soon,the post and cap came out.then my lumineer cracked.I’ve had a composite for some time on this tooth.presently i am wearing a flipper in cap space.this week,the tooth beside this cap space just broke off.,so i have 2 teeth missing and composite on other.this must sound like a made up story,but it is true. i don’t know what to do next.i really don’t wan dentures and can’t afford what the cost for implants would be. can you advise me? thanks so much.
I have 2 implants which are discolouring as they are made of composite. I paid £4,500 for the treatment should they have been made of porcelain?
Is there an age limit ? I am 70 and my top front teeth have rapidly deteriorated in the past two years. Having lost my top rear teeth both sides — the front teeth have worn razor sharp and chipped, particularly the top. Hope you can help me.
hi have lost my 1st molar 2nd molar got my 2nd premolar but lost 1st premolar on right side but the bone between the premolar and other teeth is thin have been toying with the idea of implant retained denture is it possible to use the bone at the back as this is more dense or would it need to be at the front? thanks in advance
About 20 years ago I had the front 4 teeth capped on my top row. At the time of treatment I got an infection which shifted from tooth to tooth eventually leading to the dentist having to drill a hole in the back of the tooth to release the pressure/pain. Eventually it settled down but it has left a lump on my gum and the tooth below has shifted down making it look unsightly and the tooth is loose. The caps are also thick looking and they look like horses teeth making it unbearable for me to smile. I visited a cosmetic dentist about a year ago to see if I can put this right as it has destroyed my confidence and he quoted me £7,500 which would include xrays. I can’t afford this amount. Can you give me any advice? Thanks.
