I am confused about my dentists advice, can you help?

February 2nd, 2011
Q.
After the removal of my UR back molar due to bone loss I had to have root canal on the next UR molar which now has to be extracted as it cracked across. They advised I would need sinus lift and bone graft before an implant could replace the tooth. My dentist is advising I don’t need a sinus lift but would extract then do a bone graft at same time as first stage implantation. Is this a secure way to go or should I have 1st stage implant after the bone graft has healed? Thanks for your advice – I’m confused!,

bone growth dental implants

February 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?,
A.
I would get a second opinion f… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Can silver be used in an implant verses titanium in order to avoid infection?

January 6th, 2011
Q.
Can silver be used in an inplant verses titanium so that infection would be impossible and therefore the body and mouth mico voltage could be maintained at -20.5 mv. Tooth decay I understand can reduce total body voltage by 65% per tooth endingin an early death. Shifting the metal from titanium to silver I think would eliminate this problem even though silver is not as strong as titanium.,
A.
No, silver will not integrate … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
