I Have Little Money For Implants, Why Won’t My Dentist Refer Me? Should I Seek A Second Opinion?

September 25th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Fahey. My dentist will not refer me to kings college for referral for implants. My dentures make me gag. I can’t really afford to pay but could pay a little towards them. Please help me as I am desperate walking around with no teeth and I feel ashamed and I just cover my mouth up when talking to anyone. When I asked for a referral the first time, I only had a few teeth were missing but my dentist still wouldn’t. Can you have a second opinion when it comes to a dentist? Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

How Long Do I Have To Wait For My Gums To Heal For Implants?

September 18th, 2014
Q.

Hi there. I am considering having two dental implants next to each other in the molar region. Would I be able to have them both done at the same time?

I had a tooth out yesterday and the gums have stitches in. Do I need to wait for it to heal before having implants?

I have been told there are different levels of quality of implants. Is this correct?

I am thinking of going to Poland to have them done so I want to check that the quality of implant is good.

Thanks. I look forward to hearing your advice.

Hi Dr Bohara. Could You Tell Me Whether It’s Possible To Replace My Loose Implant With The Same Implant?

September 11th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Bohara. Could you tell me whether it’s possible to replace the loose implant with the same implant? It’s early implant failure (1 month) and radiograph shows adequate bone level but only the implant tip is within the bone. I think it is due to inadequate drilling depth and continuous occlusal bite. So I’m in doubt whether I can replace it with the same implant after making it to the desired depth. Please give me a good solution for this problem. Thank you, Dr Kalpesh.

I’ve Opted For An Implant Retained Denture, But I’m Really Struggling. I’m Gagging All The Time. What Do You Think My Dentist Will Say?

September 4th, 2014
Q.

Hi Nick. I opted for the implant retained denture and knew it was going to take a while for me to get used to it. But I’m really struggling, it’s been 2 weeks and I feel like I’m gagging all the time, especially when I eat. It’s so painful and my gums are bleeding slightly. I’m due to see my dentist next week but would love a bit of advice before I go. What do you think he’s going to say? I don’t want to go another 5 months without teeth! Thanks for your time.
