What should I expect to pay for single tooth implant for my UR4 tooth?

March 20th, 2012
Q.
My upper right 4 was removed today. Options provided by my dentist are a single denture (which I do not want) or using UR3 and UR6 as the support for bridging across UR4&5. Cost estimate for the latter on my plan is £1,600. What would I expect to pay for a single tooth dental implant for my UR4 (my dentist does not provide this service)?,

Should I opt to have implant bone graft in your opinion?

March 18th, 2012
Q.
I have three implants together on the lower right side of my jaw done 17years ago. The middle implant is failing with the gum and bone receeding. Two dentists recommend the same treatment ie remove middle implant and fit new bridge across the three implants. However one dentist recommends an implant bone graft while the other does not as it would be of no use. I,m in the experts hands as to the answer.The bone has considerably receeded under the middle implant but not seriously affected the implants on either side however the steel is visible. My question is? Do I have the implant bone graft or do I allow the bone to rebuild naturally as far as possible. I look forward to hearing from you..eamon,

Should I get implant immediate loading or have longer healing time?

March 3rd, 2012
Q.
I currently have a bridge on my front teeth this was fitted 15 years ago when i had the two front teeth removed. I have decided to have implants as the bridge has failed and the supporting teeth are infected. I have had two consultations, the first dentist said that the teeth would be removed and due to the fact that i have a high smile line i would wait 3-6 months for the site to heal. Then the implants would be placed and then there would be another 3-6month wait before the permanant bridge could be fitted to the implants. During this time i would wear an adhesive bridge. This seemed like a long time so i had a second consultation with another dentist, this time i was told that the teeth could be removed and the implants placed with immediate loading of temp teeth for 3-6 months before permanant bridge fitted, despite telling the dentist that i do tend to grind and clench my teeth when sleeping. I am now very confused as to which is the best option as both dentists have advised such different methods. I have read that immediate loading can be quite high risk of failure because there should be no movement as the area is healing. I just assumed that i would have implants placed straight away then wear a temporary bridge that does not put pressure on the area that is healing. Any advice, i don’t want to end up paying for another consultation.,
