June 16th, 2011
Q.
Hello, Doctor. I wonder if you could answer a question for me?

My dentist has advised two implants, are these necessary?

February 3rd, 2011
Q.
I went for a check-up as a gap has formed between my bridge and one of the ‘anchor teeth’. My bridge is upper jaw – the anchor tooth is L6, gap at L5 and the other anchor tooth is L4. L7 (my very back tooth) is a crowned tooth that has also had a root canal. My dentist has informed me that L6 needs to come out as it is deteriorating, and has proposed two implants (L5 and L6) to remedy the problem and replace the bridge (which will be trimmed so L4 remains covered by it) Does this sound about right? Can a bridge not be attached to L7 and span across to L4? Or even put an implant into L6 and bridge from that to L4, saving the need for 2 implants? Thanks!,
