I am in need of dental treatment, but there are no available dentists nearby. Any advice?

June 13th, 2011
Q.
My dental state is very bad at the minute and being out of work, I am having to rely on NHS until I get back on track employment wise. The problem is that my regular dentist suddenly died two years ago half way through my treatment and reconstruction service. The surgery was closed as a result and I was offered no alternate surgery nor any help if finding another surgery willing to invest the time and effort into giving me my smile back. I am extremely self conscious, I never smile. My left canine basically disintegrated and broke leaving me with an interrupted smile. All the surgerys in my area and within a 50 mile radius are not accepting new patients and havent been since this occured. From my own observations, I need several fillings, some polish and hygiene work, and obviously either an implant or bridge on my upper left canine. Is there any advice you could offer me, my dental state is really affecting me emotionally and mentally. Thanks in advance,,

Is it best to insert implant in same sitting as where tooth is extracted?

June 13th, 2011
Q.
Dear Dr Fahey, Is it best to insert an implant in the same sitting as a tooth is extracted or, is it preferable to wait for a period of time before having an implant placed. I am aware that in either case it would be preferable to wait several months before fitting the abutment and loading the implant. Kind regards,,

I have suffered from gum disease for years. What treatment would you recommend, as my dentists says I should keep my teeth?

June 13th, 2011
Q.
Hi, I have for about 10 years had a gum disease problem, I am told it\’s heredity. My gums are very sore and with regular cleaning by my dentist I find my teeth are getting more sensitive to cold and generally are quite sore to brush and floss. I hate the look of them and feel I should get a fixed restoration to put a final stop to the problems I am having. What would you recomend I do? where should I go to get the treatment I need?. My dentist tells me to hold on to the teeth, but I feel am fighting a loosing battle.,

Can you advise me after failed bone graft, as I don’t want to return to dentist who nearly killed me?

June 9th, 2011
Q.
In Nov 09 I had all my top teeth pulled after having a 9 unit bridge fail. The teeth extracted were 6,7,8,11,& 12, Implants were placed in 11 & 12. Bone graft was done on total upper jaw. I have a bleeding disorder called Von Willibrands. I ended up in the hospital that night and had to stay to get a special drip for my bleeding. I bleed so much that I threw up a lot. I was real concerned about damage all of this could have had done to my bone graft. I had a front missing that had caused a lot of bone loss. The dentures made had the impress were the bone loss was. So this caused the new bone to be pushed in. It also caused my stitches to tear louse to soon. I choose not to go back to this surgeon because he could have killed me by not doing his job with my Haematologist as he was given number and was suppose to do. He said since I had a few pulled before he thought it would be ok not to, since they tried once and didn\’t get a call back. My concerns or now before I have new teeth made is that i have a lot of sensitivity by implants and a lot of bone loss in 7,8,9,and 10. and a dip in the center of my mouth where bone was pushed. I basicly have a lot of uncomfort. I feel like somethings not right. the surgeon I saw to put abundment in says it doesn\’t have to be perfect. I dont want to go any further unless things or right. I feel that i need more bone put in that i loss from bleeding, throwing up and have dentures that had not been corrected for bone implant. Could you give me some advice. Thank you. Wish I could send pictures.,
