I was meant to get conventional implants but on the day of treatment was given mini implants. Should I be concerned?

December 14th, 2010
Q.
I recently had 5 mini implants placed in my upper jaw immediately after the removal of several teeth.During my initial consultation I was advised that the larger conventional implants would be best. But on the day of surgery was told that because I had bad gum disease it would compromise the implants and therefore best to use mini implants.I am slightly concerned and my confidence in this clinic is a little shaken.Does the advice sound valid to you?,

I personally wouldn\’t change … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I awoke to a cracking sound from grinding my teeth and developed a bacterial infection. Still hurts to put pressure on it. What could it be?

December 13th, 2010
Q.
I had 3 dental implants placed 9 months ago. Everything was fine, but after waking up to a \”cracking\” sound from grinding my teeth in the middle of the night – I have had pressure and pain over one of the teeth. Dentist took x-rays a month ago and said everything was fine. However since then I developed a bacterial infection the left sde of my face. Doctor says it was probably a sinus infection and I have taken antibiotics. The bacteria pain has eased, but it still hurts to put pressure on the tooth. Could it be sinus or the tooth. I know with a real tooth the sinus could cause this pressure, but not sure if that is the same for implants. This particular tooth is one that had a sinus lift. Not sure where to go now. Advise please,
A.
It may need rechecking in case… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

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

December 13th, 2010
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,,
