I am confused. I have a wobbly tooth at the front, and have got to have a bridge as have receding gums and therefore an implant is not practical. I have had all the pre dental work done and on monday, I go for my temporary bridge to be fitted at a cost of £468, 3 months after that I have to go and have a permanent bridge fitted cost of £1300 but no where on the internet am i reading about anyone having to have two bridges done, please advise thanks

I have to have two bridges done, is this normal?
Friday, February 18th, 2011I recently got a new bridge and I am in extreme pain, what should I do?
Tuesday, February 8th, 2011I recently had a replacement bridge. I still have the temp bridge and am awaitng the permanent bridge. I am in great pain. I returned to the dentist to have him check the temp. he said the pain was due to the inproper fit of the temp and would go away when the perm. bridge is cemented in place. Is this true? I am dying here,living off of ibupropen/tylenol. Thanks
I have experienced pain since my permanent bridge was fitted. Why is this?
Thursday, January 13th, 2011I had a bridge done, while I had a temporary I had no problems with pain. Since the day I had the permanent bridge put on I have pain, head ache, ear ache as soon as I have cold or hot foods. When the dentist was placing the permanent I never had anesthesia can this be trauma related? if so, is the dentit responsible for paying any additional treatment I maight need since it was negigence? I’ve been taking Ibiprofen 800 mil 3x a day today is my 3rd day & I don’t feel any better. Do I need a root canal? please advise, Thank you.

Can I have implants to fill a gap after removing a problem cyst?
Monday, November 22nd, 2010I have a bridge on my lower front middle teeth, spanning a gap where a single tooth was removed approx 5 years ago. The whole bridge is now rocking forwards and backwards slightly and x-rays reveal a cyst at the bottom of one of the supporting pegs. Implant(s) seem to be the way forward but is this possible given the cyst? If time is needed to clear up the cyst what can be done cosmetically while this healing is taking place? Thanks

Are there any options to address my extracted tooth?
Monday, August 2nd, 2010I have to have a tooth extracted and have been advised an implant is the best option. My dentist has informed me that the gum will need to be left to heal for about 6 months. I enquired about temporary solutions to fill the gap and am being told that this will not be possible so I will have a gap at the front of my teeth for at least 6 months! Please can you advise?,
