Why am I Still Having Problems 6 Weeks After Treatment?

June 8th, 2015
Q.

Hi Dr Glover. I recently had an implant retained denture, and was aware that they take quite a long time to get used to. It’s been 6 weeks and I’m still struggling. I gag when I eat and my gums keep bleeding, and my mouth feels sore. I have made an appointment with my dentist for two weeks time but I’d just like a bit of advice before I go. Why do you think I’m still having problems?

How do I keep my dental implants clean and free of infection?

November 16th, 2012
Q.

Hello,
I am seriously considering to undertake All on 4 teeth replacement based on what I read in your article here.
I have 73 years and after the war in Europe the only dental treatment in my region was tooth extraction mostly done by general MD or DIY..
By the age 20 I had most of my back teeth in the upper jaw and in the lower jaw missing.

Thus my jaw bone was not stimulated for over 50 years.
I am retired now and wear dentures.
In the lower jaw I managed to save 4 teeth in front. Dentures are now in need of repair.
I am wearing full denture in the upper jaw and partial denture in the lower jaw.

Have a question about dental hygiene after
All on 4 procedure is completed..
How do I clean those implants to prevent infection and loss of stability of the implant.
Even if implants are from special metal, bacterias can and will collect around implants and cause damage and cause periodontal disease around implants. Are there special techniques and tools to clean thoroughly at least once a day and preferably every time after eating sweets.
Implants will be covered completely covered and invisible and impossible to clean unless I go to a Clinic where they will be able to remove dentures to expose implants and that will significantly increase cost clinic to write a brief article about this important issue.
Many thanks for your help to clarify the maintenance procedures after All on 4 implants are placed in mouth.
Sincerely

Dr Kalpesh Bohara

Can you tell me if dental implants are possible if a person has no teeth?

May 29th, 2012
Q.
hello doctor kalpesh bohara. I have no teeth at all, and am getting pretty sick of wearing my uncomfortable and very ugly dentures. I really like the idea of getting dental implants, even though I am quite nervous about this as it does seem to be an invasive procedure. Could you tell me what could be done for a person with no teeth and how long it would take for it all to be healed? thanks for any info you can give, it is greatly appreciated as this is something i really want to get as soon as I can,

My dentist tells me getting all my teeth our and replacing them with implants is not a good idea. What is your opinion?

March 20th, 2012
Q.
Hello, I am age 40 and very depressingly I have rapidly decaying teeth (I don’t eat much sugar), I wear an upper denture with three teeth on it, and have another four upper crowns at least that are held on very little tooth. My bottom back teeth are all filled heavily and i have two bottom crowns. I am a nervous patient with a sensitive gag reflex and a phobia about vomiting but I do manage to attend as regularly as required, my caring and patient dentist. Instead of going through endless dental proceedures on my horrible teeth I would really like to have all of my teeth taken out and implant supported dentures top and bottom, my dentist doesnt think this is a good idea because he says my teeth have some years left in them yet as long as i keep attending and having work done as required. I hate every appointment and would like a solution for my mouth that has me dentist free for many years. Please advice.,
