Q.
Hi there, i have 2 teeth (together) that have had root canal treatment ,the dentist has x rayed them and he says the root is infected and i need to have them extracted. he can only offer me a denture which i really dont want, is there any other option ?i was thinking of a bridge? the remaining tooth that the bridge would need to be attached to is a crown and the other a filled molar?can you have bridgework done in these circumstances and how much would it be ?thanks

Im nervous and worried about the contamination of dental equipment and cross infection

Friday, April 10th, 2009
Q.
Dear Dr, I am a very nervous patient and avoid the dentist at all costs. I have some pain in a tooth with a temporary filling (I never returned to get the proper filling put in). I know I need to go to the dentist but I am very worried about contamination of dental equipment and cross-infection etc… My main concern is that the dental equipment won’t be properly sterilised and I am also worried that when the dentist moves his lamp and then puts his hands into my mouth he may transfer blood from a previous patient into my mouth. I have never seen him wipe the light after use, but he possibly does this when I have left the room. Should I tell the dentist my concerns? I am kind of embarrassed about this. Thanks

Post infection a few months ago my wisdom tooth has become loose. What are the best options for me

Friday, April 3rd, 2009
Q.
A few mnoths ago I had an infection of one of my top teeth next to my wisdom tooth. It has since been slightly loose. I am not keen on extraction so would a cap or crown be beneficial. Or is it best to have it extracted? It is not causing me too much trouble currently. but I am worried if it gets infected again Many thanks

Infection in teeth aftet root canal treatment

Monday, March 30th, 2009
Q.
My current dentist has started me on a treatment plan. today he has told me that as well as this plan i will then need another treatment plan at a cost of minimum £1400. I am shocked that what I believed to have been the entire treatment is costing me £1800 and now there will be a further £1400 minimum to pay later. The story starts like this I went to an NHS dentist they sent me to a consultant he advised exstraction of my two back teeth,or implants. I decided two implants would cost to much so was going to opt for one implant and an exstraction, as this would be cheaper. I went to a private dentist who told me that the best course of action was to try and save the teeth inspite of the large decay and infection that had eaten the bottoms of the teeth away and this whole treatment would cost £1800 this includeds 3 normal fillings. an implant would have cost about £2000 so I was happy with this. But now it seems that I will have to pay an un-exspected £1400 and I am also at the mercy of the infection not clearing up, in which case all root canal treatment leading up to this will have been a total waste of time. I hope this has given you enoughth information, could you please give me your exspert advice on this.
