I had the teeth pulled last week (which are being replaced by the implants) and haven\’t received any temporary implants, also my dentist hasn\’t told me when the implants will be ready, should I go back to see him? or is this the usual case?,

Dentist quoted me for treatment but now this has gone up, after they removed my teeth! I would be grateful for any advice?

June 23rd, 2011
Q.
Hi I have been going to a cosmetic dentist for three months now after 20 yrs of dental phobia! They advised me that all my teeth needed to be extracted and that I need full fixed bridge upper and lower on 8 implants at the top plus 4 mini implants and 6 implants on the bottom. What started off as a quote for around £15k worth of treatment (not including the £3.5k fir extractions and temp dentures ) has risen to £35k – but this is after my teeth have gone. They have told me to arrange my own ct scan – no clue how I do this and are not willing to reline my awful temp dentures as they are very busy. Does this sound right? Grateful for any advice, I am 40 in good health don\’t smoke never had but have family history of periodontal disease quite severely. Thanks. ,
A.
