Can the NHS pay for the dental implant I need?

May 20th, 2011
Q.
Hi, I had my front right upper tooth knocked out at a concert and i went straight to A&E and they put it back in and splinted it to my other teeth for a month. its been two months now and i noticed a lump which turned out to be an abscess. when i went back they showed me my x ray and said that i have an infection, however it is all around the tooth and my root is starting to decay. I\’m having root canal surgery on the 5th of august and they said it is possible that i will lose the tooth there and then. they said the best replacement because of my age, 19, would be an implant and the quoted me £3000. I\’ve just left college and only have a Saturday job so there is no way i am going to be able to afford this. Would the NHS pay or will they definitely not cover dental implants.,

The crown I had fitted doesn’t fit properly and sticks out, what should I do?

May 20th, 2011
Q.
I had a dental implant fitted over 6 months ago and it\’s brilliant, it was a great success and I went to get my permanent crown fitted last week but it doesn\’t look right at all. It\’s bigger than the rest of my teeth and protrudes greatly, I asked my dentist if he could replace it but he won\’t because he said it looks fine and it would take too long to get another one made! What can I do about this? I\’m very upset as it is very noticeable.,
