I Broke My Tooth Recently And I’ve Been Advised To Have A Bridge Or An Implant? Which Would You Advise?

Q.

Hi. I had broke my tooth a few days ago and went into my local NHS dentist and was told that the tooth is totally damaged, he could fill this with fillings but it won’t last very long and the other option is removal? I opted for the removal as this colour was totally discoloured from the filling and was ruptured as well.

I have been now advised to look at options of bridge or implant. Both teeth on either end of the missing tooth have a slight filling on them. What would you recommend I should do? I would appreciate your advice, could you also tell me what the cost implications would be for what you would recommend it. I was also told that I can have temporary dentures but will need to wait for at least 6 months till I decided which option to take as my bone needs to breath!

Q.

Hi Dr Bohara, I am a 50 yr old woman, living in northern ireland. About 20 years ago, I had an improperly treated abscess, which resulted in theloss of two teeth and since then have worn a temporary denture, as i have been too scared to go back. This is now causing too many problems, as i think i have gum disease. Is there anything I can do? if its possible, would like dentist to hide behind door as i walk in armed with a rubber hammer lol – the problem is my fear of something similar happening again. Please give me some advice, I need to go to the dentist but I’m so frightened.Thank you
