Can I Have My Implant Taken Out and Put Back In?

June 19th, 2015
Q.

Hello Dr Glover. I’m just wondering if a loose implant can be placed back in, so the loose implant is really being replaced by the same implant? It started to feel loose just over a month after I had it placed and my dentist said my bone level is fine, but only the tip of the implant is in the bone. I’m not sure if the drilling was done properly but I’m not sure if I can have it replaced with the same implant. What do you think?

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?

I Need a Filling But Suffer From Dental Anxiety. What Can Be Done?

May 28th, 2015
Q.

Hi there, I’m 14 and have a massive problem with dental work while conscious. I have needed a filling for over a year but backed out because the process of numbing went wrong and I just couldn’t handle it. I was supposed to get a referral to arrange what could be done but never did. I’m going back to get another referral but what will they do, and what can I do?
I was put completely to sleep when I was younger to have 10 teeth removed which wasn’t so bad, but when I had one awake it sent me crazy! I’m not sure why I can’t cope with being conscious during treatment, but I just can’t and I don’t know what to do.

Will Smoking Discolour My Crown?

May 4th, 2015
Q.

I’m having a dental implant with a crown fitted in 3 weeks time, but my dentist has been a bit unclear about how long the procedure is going to take. Also, I’m a smoker so I’m wondering if the crown will get discoloured over time? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I was wondering if you could offer me some advice.

Will My Father’s Dental Implants Look Natural?

March 16th, 2015
Q.

Hello Dr Glover. I’ve recently paid for my father to get some of his teeth sorted and he’s due to have three dental implants fitted but he’s starting to have second thoughts. Is there any way his dentist can manage to calm him down before he has them? Will they match up correctly and look natural? He’s worried about looking stupid. I hope you can provide us with information on this. It would really be helping us out. Thanks.

What Kind Of Long-Term Stability Do Implants Offer Compared To Other Missing Teeth Treatments?

March 7th, 2015
Q.

Hi Dr Glover. I’d really like to know what kind of long term stability implants offer compared to other treatments for missing teeth? I had a nasty accident recently which left me feeling very worse for wear but I won’t go into much detail. It has left me with a big, unsightly gap in my teeth which I feel very self-conscious over it and I don’t like to smile any more as it makes me look like a football hooligan. Is it a painful procedure? Thank you for helping me with this.

How Much Does Implant Treatment Cost, And Am I Suitable?

February 28th, 2015
Q.

Dear Dr Glover. I had dental surgery 13 years ago to uncover both my adult canine teeth (kissing canines) in the roof of my palette. It took 6 years to drag the teeth down into place with the use of a brace. My canine teeth were then bonded to fill in the gaps to give a better smile. That was 8 years ago. Now it is being suggested that the teeth do not have a good shelf life and implants would be the way forward. What cost do implants come in at for two canine teeth such as mine? And is there any criteria I must meet to be able to have them? I have been told that I have gum disease which currently affects those two teeth. Many thanks, Caroline.

How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?

February 24th, 2015
Q.

Hello, I was wondering if you could help me. How much is it for a dental implant treatment? I may need 3 implants, as two of my teeth are filled, and one is missing. These three teeth are together in a row. I am missing other teeth, they are molars and if I can afford it, I would get implants. Thank you for your time.
