bone growth dental implants

December 2nd, 2011
Q.
Over the last year I had the UR back molar removed due to bone loss and the second UR was successfully root canaled but then cracked across so I need to have it removed and an implant placed. My dentist wants to remove and do a bone graft simultaneous with the implant pin and then leave for 5-6mths for the bone to grow. She says this is safe and has done it before although I understand from this site that bone graft is normally done before inserting the implant pin. I was advised that I would need a sinus lift & a bone graft – my dentist doesn’t think the sinus lift is necessary as I have not had the tooth removed yet. Very confused want to do the right thing – what do you advise?,

I need an implant but am concerned this will affect my IVF treatment. What should I do?

October 13th, 2011
Q.
Hello, I havea failed root canal which has already been re rooted twice. I imagine I will need an extraction very soon (visiting dentist tomo) – and then an implant etc. However, I am due to start IVF treatment in a month and am concerned about the dental treatments and x rays needed if I pursue the implant route. If I leave the tooth extracted – and no implant or bone graft for 12-14 months, is this going to be a problem? Also, what is the risk of dry socket with extraction? This terrifies me! Thanks,,

There is silver/metal on the surface of my crown, but I didn’t expect there to be any metal showing. Is this normal?

September 18th, 2011
Q.
I had an implant placed a few months ago and just had the crown fitted (2nd premolar upper). I thought it was just the cement etc but now that I\’ve brushed my teeth there\’s silver/metal on the surface of the crown – it looks like a small filling. I didn\’t think there would be any metal showing – is this normal?,

My dentist has recommended I have my painful tooth removed but I don’t want to. Is there any other option?

September 18th, 2011
Q.
In 1998 I had a root canal procedure on my bottom right back molar.A crown was fitted. 3 years ago I experienced pain underneath this crown and my dentist prescribed antibiotics. 2 more \’pain episodes\’ followed, approx once a year the last one 2 weeks ago.My dentist is of the opinion that the root canal has failed and that to avoid these infections extraction should be considered. I am reluctant but do not wish to possibly keep on taking antibiotics. Any thoughts. I have had the tooth x-rayed now and am due for extraction on 14 December.,
