Why can a private dentist give me the treatment but the NHS can’t?

Friday, May 28th, 2010
Q.
My dentist says he has gone as far as he can on the root canal treatment on one of my back teeth. He says there is are about three parts of the nerve left about 5mm long. He has said a private clinic could do it but it could not be done on the NHS. Why can a private dentist appear to be able to do it ? The alternative is to have it out.,

There is a problem with my CEREC crown, can you give me some advice?

Monday, May 24th, 2010
Q.
I had a cerec crown fitted last October on my lower mouth, right hand side. I told my dentist it was niggling me and didn’t feel right. He gave me a course of antibiotics. On the next visit I told him it was still the same and he gave me a stronger course of antibiotics. In December I told him it was the same and after an xray he told me everything looked fine and their was no sign of infection. Seven months down the line and I could pull my tooth out. It is so uncomfortable and I can feel pain when my jaws close. I also have movement with the tooth. I have explained all this to my dentist and he told me that it’s impossible for me to feel pain as I also had root canal in the same tooth. I had a cerec crown fitted on my lower left side (without root canal) in December and it has never bothered me so I know something is not right. Your advice would be greatly appreciated.,

Should I just have my problematic tooth extracted?

Friday, May 21st, 2010
Q.
Hi. I had root canal on molar Number 18 twenty years ago. The tooth then became infected 10 years later and a second root canal was performed drilling through the crown. Now, This same tooth has become infected again. One of the dentist in my dentist’s office feels it would prove beneficial to have the tooth extracted. I am a bit apprehensive considering this same dentist sent three patients before me on the same day to the oral surgeon to have one of their teeth extracted. With the history of my tooth, could it be treated with antibiotics or do you feel extracting it makes more sense. I am 38 years old and would hate to start losing teeth now. I appreciate whatever input you have to offer. Kind Regards.,

How much would one back tooth implant cost?

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010
Q.
Hello Justin I had a back tooth removed last week, which had broken in half. The original treatment should have been root canal treatment, but the dentist advised removing the tooth and having an implant fitted. I had treatment under sedation, as I’m phobic of dental treatment and suffer anxiety. My question is, was this the correct way forward and how much should one back tooth implant cost. Many thanks.
