Can you please advise whether I would still be able to wear braces to straighten the rest of my teeth when I have this implant?

What are pros and cons of teeth filling?

Friday, October 30th, 2009
Q.
I had braces when I was 17. At the time there was an issue with overcrowding on the bottom teeth. There was discussion of pulling a tooth, but it was not done. I’m now 33 and have overcrowding of my lower front 6 teeth. My orthodontist suggested pulling a tooth or filing the teeth down. What are the pros and cons of filing the teeth down? Does this ruin your tooth enamel?

Can the process of tooth extraction be quicker?

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009
Q.
I went to my dentist (NHS)for the second time re. my wisdom tooth. I was given antibiotics and she drained some of the infection. I asked to be referred to a specialist for extracion. This takes up to 6 months. I hate taking antibiotics and would rather have the tooth out asap. Can this process happen quicker i.e through private practice? What is the wait for an operation when going private and where could i go? I don’t understand why she seems reluctant to refer me and get it treated properly. I live in London. Best Wishes

What is the price range for implant?

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009
Q.
Dr. Caplan, I saw an endodontist today for a problem with a crown that I had placed in 2004. There was a root canal done on this tooth(which is the 3rd tooth from the front tooth) and then the crown was placed. But I have had a lot of trouble with the crown—has come off several times and now for the second time in 3 mo, I have decay built up under it. I am on antibiotic now and the specialist I saw today recommends that I have this tooth extracted and have an implant for this tooth. It was a baby tooth(the permanent tooth came in behind it and I had it pulled years ago). I have just a couple of questions: What is the price range of an implant? Should I have my dentist—whom I trust do the procedure or is it recommended to go to an oral surgeon? Thank you!
