Would as dental implant be any cheaper than £3000 if I ask different dentists?

Thursday, January 13th, 2011
Q.

Hi

I am 56 and have recently had to have a tooth next to my front one removed due to infection. I had an apiceoctomy on the same tooth 18 years ago, and then 7 years I had a crown as the tooth crumbled. I was devastated to lose the tooth and the fact that I have to wear a plate. I loathe it and cannot wait to be rid of it. My Dentist has suggested waiting 3 months to see whether I could have a bridge or be referred for an implant. I have decided to go for an implant as I understand from a friend’s son who is a Dentist that this is the way forward. I am surprised it will cost around £3,000 to include consultation fees. Does this depend on Dentist to Dentist – would it be possible to reduce the cost at all? Also, I am a very nervous patient and have always had a fear of dental treatment. Could an implant be done under sedation?

Many thanks

Kind regards

How can I get over my dental phobia in order to get my broken teeth repaired?

Friday, December 10th, 2010
Q.

Hi, Im a 42 year old male and was never taken to the dentist as a child so no trust was ever built up with a dentist, i have only been to the dentist since then when i have had tooth ache and something needs to be removed. The problem now is that i only have six front upper teeth and a few broken off at the gum line at the back. I can no longer smile and very scarred to smile if i go out, this has now affected relationships and eating in public is such an embarrassment i just don’t know what to do. I work but have no savings to pay for such treatment and cant move on in life.
im terrified of dentists and so wish i had gone when i was a child. Help

What does having a tooth removed under sedation involve?

Wednesday, December 8th, 2010
Q.

Hello, I have a tooth, lower right hand side at the back, which needed root canal treatment or extraction. I opted for root canal but after several attempts had to abandon this idea as for some reason the tooth or area around it just wouldn’t numb. Instead the dentist tried to dress and fill the tooth. Now a few months later i am in a lot of pain and the tooth needs to be removed. My dentist has told me the tooth needs quartering before removal. bearing in mind the nerve pain i felt during the attempted RC and filling I have been advised to have the tooth removed under sedation. If you have the time could you please explain this procedure to me and tell me what I’m likely to experience.
