Is it possible to pay for implants on a monthly basis?

January 5th, 2011
Q.
I had an accident in august 2008 where I fell and smashed my two front teeth onto concrete, which obviously broke. I had caps put on and root canal treatment on the teeth, however a year later they started throbbing. I went back to my local NHS dentist and they said I had an infection in my gums and put me forward for a hospital referal where my gums would be opened and the infection cleaned out (acute mucosal infection). The gentlemen doing my operation said I should think about long term teeth rather than having the caps replaced as they won’t last me til I’m 35, I’m 23 at the moment. Basically he suggested implants, and now I want to know about costs, can a dentist do this and have my paying them back monthly, and after my operation how long do I leave it until I sort out the implants? I just want this sorted and finished now as it’s been going on for a year and a half. I hate the waiting game. If you could give me some advice, tips etc… Thanks

Have I wasted my money on lower implants for a denture?

January 3rd, 2011
Q.
I have lower implant for a denture. The o rings have been replaced many times because the plate gets loose and flops around. I paid thousands of dollars for this thinking I would always have a secure denture. Now I am told that these rings need to be replaced every 6 mos at a cost to me. Now therings don’t even last a month. I was also told it is what I eat that could be the problem. I chose this route of denture replacement because I wanted to resume my normal eating habits, which include corn on cob, steak, nuts, gum. Now to be told this is my problem, I should have gone the simple denture route. I have little jaw and also this is my problem. I have no problems with the abuttments, just the denture plate. Any suggestions, or did I throw 7 grand to the wind or someones vacation. I have only had this for 3 years…..
