Is there a way I can move one of my back teeth to replace a missing front tooth?

Wednesday, October 31st, 2012
Q.

I have big problems with my teeth right now. One of my teeth is not aligned with the other, not because it really is misaligned but I lost the front one. I used to have a wisdom tooth on that part, but I had it removed because it looked very ugly. It is where the biggest and pointed tooth is and I have two of them in one part of the gum. Since I lost the front one, the only tooth left on that part is the back one. It isn’t nice to look at. Are there methods to forward that tooth? Many thanks to you for the advice in advance

Can an extracted wisdom tooth be used to replace another?

Thursday, January 13th, 2011
Q.

Hi,

Is it true wisdom teeth can be reused, I have to have an extraction but also have a wayward wisdom tooth needing removal – is it possible to put the wisdom tooth into where the extracted tooth was and avoid the cost of a dental implant.

Thanks.

I’m experiencing a lot of pain since the extraction of my wisdom tooth, is this normal?

Thursday, July 29th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I had my lower right wisdom tooth extracted in hospital 4 days ago under local. It was very traumatic, and now I am getting a constant throbbing pain all along my jaw line, right up to the socket of my jaw near my ear. I am taking normal paracetemol as well as Ibuprofen but the constant throbbing and aching is starting to take its toll. I’ve done exactly as asked, Corsodyl mouth washes, salt water washes, brushing teeeth after every meal (soup and yoghurt and mashed potato). Is it normal for there to be so much aching and throbbing? My other teeth next to the one which was removed are also feeling “on edge” and sensitive. There is also a foul taste in my mouth despite my regular teeth brushing and mouth washing so am worried I may have dry socket.,

It does sound like a dry socke… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Friday, July 16th, 2010
Q.
My dentist has told me i need to have my wisdom tooth removed. Due to it not being able to fit in my mouth and only partially exposed this has to be done at hospital.

Why do i have to pay £55 to my dentist, even if the hospital chose not to remove it?,
