What is the best course of action for my daughter if all of her front teeth are removed?

Q. My daughter suffered a trauma to her 2 upper front teeth as a child and had crowns fitted. At age now 22 she has had root canal and surgery to try and clear an infection that has occured around the root. If the infection re-occurs she has been told there is no more treatment available and her teeth will have to be removed. She has a massive phobia about her teeth and dentists as a result of her accident and always has to be sedated she is even having counselling to help her with this but her councellor has informed her she will have no front teeth for about 6 weeks if they have to be removed and she is distraught. Can you advise the best course of action if she does have to have them removed and what the process would be. Since the accident I have always taken her to a private dentist and am aware of the costs but I want her to have the best available because of her phobia. Please can you help,
A. I would never leave a patient without a front tooth for any length of time not even a day. At Advance dental clinic I always plan the treatment around making sure that a replacement tooth is fitted at the time of extraction, even if its just a simple temporary. If you’d like me to take a look I would be happy to help, we also offer sedation, my clinic’s number is 08443 87 87 88 Andrew
