dental implant for the replacement of fallen crown

August 18th, 2011
Q.
I have previously (5 yrs ago) had root treatment and a crown on my to second pre-molar. Last weekend the crown, which covered most of the area of the tooth, fell out. Today I visited a dentist and apparently I now don’t have enough tooth on show to have another crown (my gum has already covered over the area) the root is also not in the best condition for this. So this would mean my options are a denture, a bridge or an implant. Not keen to get a denture, the bridge I’m guessing may cause problems down the line for my other surrounding teeth. So what kind of price would I be looking at for an implant? And is this a more “permenant” solution? Many thanks.

My dentist says my crowns have to be narrower, is that true?

July 11th, 2011
Q.
I had lost both my first molars many years ago. I recently had two implants placed in the gaps where the teeth had once been. Two implants because the gap had widened over time. There had also been substantial bone loss especially on the right hand side, therefore the implants were ‘shortys’. The (double)crowns placed on these implants are narrower than the teeth on either side, (the premolar and second molar), the crowns do not resemble teeth at all. My dentist has excused this issue by saying that as the imlants were short, the crowns have to be narrower. Can you tell me is there any truth in his explaination. I really am distressing about this. I can send you photographs if you wish?,

How many implants will I need to replace a bridge?

June 16th, 2011
Q.
Hello Doctor 
I have a bridge consisting of 4 teeth at the top front of my mouth. Due to root canal work that has not worked I had to have an operation at the maxio-facial clinic 4 years ago. However this has not worked either and the bridge is starting to fail. My options are to have the operation again but my surgeon says this is only 50% sucessful and can accelerate the process. Or to have the teeth replaced by impants. As Only one tooth is missing, how many implants would I have to have, could the other 3 teeth be replaced with crowns? and would the site of the original tooth loss be suitable for an implant as it was areound 40 yers ago.
Thank you very much for your time,
A.

Can I replace 2 adult teeth and one baby tooth with dental implants?

June 6th, 2011
Q.
Hello Doctor Andrew Moore and I thank you for your time. I have overcrowding at the front of my mouth. There is two teeth in front of one another (incisor) along with a baby tooth next to them (I am currently twenty five). Is it possibly to remove these three (2 adult and 1 baby) teeth and then replace them with two dental implants (preferably one implant with 2 teeth attached). What would an approximate cost be for this type of treatment if you can please let me know. Many thanks and I hope you can advise on this cheers,.,

How do I actually find a dentist who is experienced with dental implants?

June 6th, 2011
Q.
Hello Dr Bohara, This ia a question that follows on from one I asked earlier on about “bad experience with a bone graft….” You replied that it is important to select a surgeon who is experienced enough with the procedure to place dental implants. I live near Chelmsford in Essex and would like to go to the most experienced in this area, but how can I find out this information? Thank you for your time and I hope you can provide some assistance.,
