Ive had 3 implants put in about 6 yrs ago but Ive been told they wont last by my dentist and Guys Hospital. My dentist suggest to have the implants redone but Guys tell me to have a bridge. Im confused and really dont know what to do. I just want to be referred to the right person so I don’t have to walk around with big gaps in my mouth. Its an awful feeling not being able to smile. I’m a diabetic who is 50 years old. My diabetes can be a bit unstable at times but at the moment the balance has improved.
Both my dentist and Guys disagree with each other regarding my treatment and both parties rerfuse to talk to each other too.
I so need to find a permanant help for my teeth as the thought of having more false teeth kills me.
The implant on the upper left hand side is starting to ache which I fear might be starting to fall out but on touching it , it still appears firm. Both other impants also appear firm but x rays have proved they will one day fall out but no one knows when.
my nhs dentist and private dentist worked together with my treatment of crowns and implants. also i had to have bone put in the gums so the implants worked.
I have had Gum disease since I was 21 but keep my teeth in good order. I have them clean by my dentist every 3 months. Ive also been to guys for a year while they cleaned
