one of my front teeth has been wobbling since i hurt it at Christmas i went dentist they saw in an x-ray that the tooth had broken above gum level he told me to come back for extraction and get a denture or i can consider a implant what other options are available and what would be best
hi.i have been so down about my teeth.all my back teeth were taken out about 2 years ago.i did get dentures made but they really hurt and never stayed in properly.iam only 32.i have not been able to sort my teeth out and just suffered as i have a terminally ill 4 year old daughter who is disabled.she needs constant care and is always in and out of hospital so have had no time to look after myself or the money.iam on income support so funds are tight.is there any chance i could get implants and are these available on the nhs.im so depressed not being able to eat properly.
I just wanna ask if it is possible to change my denture on my two front teeth to the dental bridges?
i have dentures in the upper jaw,and i need1 extraction 9 extraction on the lower jaw will i be able to have implants in both
Hello Doc.
Last week I had some bridge work done to replace a 2-tooth lower plate, which I’ve lived with for over 20 years, but which was becoming irritating and ill-fitting. The bridge looks fantastic, but feels very unwelcome in my mouth and I’m starting to panic that I’ve made the wrong decision by having this work done. All I can feel in my mouth is this bridge; eating has become a depressing affair, since the bridge feels like its dominating my taste buds. Will this discomfort subside? How long should I wait before deciding to have the thing removed? Please help!
what are plates? i have to have them but i don’t know what they are?
Hi have been told by my dentist that me bridge needs replacing as it has broken , and I will have to have a temp denture fitted for between 6-12 months ! then a new bridge fitted I am really worried about this I am only 45 can I have a temp bridge fitted instead .
I am a nhs patient , but would pay for a temp bridge .
I am having the extraction and procedure with the magic wand as have had a allergic reaction once , can this procedure be done with the wand ? thanking you
I have been told i have gum disease and been told to quit smoking is there anything else i can do to save my teeth as I’m only 39 and don’t want to lose any.
If i do lose any can i have them replaced.
many thanks
Hi
Sorry if this is a repeat email.
I emailed you about implant retained dentures and if they could look like real teeth. My next question is how do I know that the lab that the dentist is using is able to make the dentures that I want. If the dentist I go to only uses one lab and they aren’t able to make what I want then I can’t see the point as to me this is a major factor. What should I be asking the dentist to ensure I get the best look and quality from the lab?
Thanks
Hi
I was hoping to have full dental implants. Lower implant retained denture and implants on the upper. I have now been told that I have individual implants on the top and also have to have an implant retained denture because I have an overbite and need the lip support.
Is it really possible to have dentures that look like real teeth. If people have to have a crown fitted you can’t tell the difference between that and their own teeth but when you have to have a full denture they don’t seem to look like real teeth. Is it possible to have a denture that is made of porcelain or other material that looks like natural teeth.
As you can probably tell I am getting very distressed about this and I am looking for a new dentist that I can discuss this with and hopefully can do my implants.
I look forward to your response.
