I really don’t want to wear dentures and I am considering other options, such as implants. Can I have these and how much would they cost?

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010
Q.
I have a lower front bridge (approx 15 years old) and have recently suffered two abscesses under the bridge. I have been informed that the bridge needs to be removed together with the offending tooth with the result being dentures. I really do no want dentures is it possbile to have another bridge fitted? or would it have to be implants. Your expert advice would be very much appreciated as I feel really low about the prospect of having to wear dentures. I would also be most grateful if you could give me a ball park figure for these treatments as I assume they are not avaible on the NHS. Kind regards,

Can you advise me on which cosmetic option would be more suitable for my problem?

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010
Q.
Hiya, wonder if you could advise me on the best course of treatment. I have a failing bridge involving UR3,2 and 1. UR3 needs an extraction. I have been advised to replace this with an implant onto which a cantilever bridge can fit to replace my missing UR2, with a single crown for ur1. I another clinic have recommended I have two implants in UR3 and 2, instead of the cantilever option, they dont like cantilever bridges and think the mechanics of them is too much pressure on one implant and are not gauranteed to last, I also have a heavy bite with some wearing on my bottom teeth and this makes me feel two implants may be better? but I realise the two options will look different cosmetically both clinics argue that their way will look better aesthetically, also I have a bridge involving the same teeth the other side of my mouth. I can see pros and cons to both treatment plans, please help!!!,

I snapped my tooth in my teens and had a replacement fitted. Is there anything possible to fix this horrible fake tooth?

Monday, August 23rd, 2010
Q.
Hi. I snapped my front tooth in my teens so had to have another built on (with a screw, if that sounds right?! sorry it was a few years ago) and it is hideous as it’s sometime grey in colour and was fitted a bit wonky. It doesn’t help I have a massive overbite and ‘fangs’ that have turned around 90 degrees. Basically, I have awful teeth! How likely is it that I could have anything fixed, within a reasonable amount of time, with this horrible fake tooth? or even teeth whitening as a short term confidence booster?,
A.
it sounds as though you have a… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
