Will dental crown need to be replaced if fallen from implant?

November 26th, 2009
Q.
The crown that is attached to my dental implant has fallen away. It started as a crack but now the whole thing has gone. Will I only need to get the crown replaced or may this affect the implant itself?
A.
New crown, unfortunately.

Dental crown on implant has cracked – what to do?

November 24th, 2009
Q.
I have a dental crown over the dental implant I got a year ago. But for some stupid reason I have managed to crack the crown and I can feel that it is about to fall out any minute. A little bit has already come off and left a sharp edge which my tongue might get caught on. This is making me fearful to eat. I have rang my dentist and made an appointment, the earliest being saturday. Can you offer any advice about what I should do in the mean time?

Is implant success affected by condition of nearby teeth?

November 16th, 2009
Q.
Is the success of a dental implant anything to do with the teeth that are around it. I have a tooth missing and the two teeth on either side of this area are not in the best shape but I do not want to get rid. Will this have any affect on how the dental implant infuses with the bone?
