My Dental Implant Was Infected Almost Immediately. What Should My Dentist Be Doing Next?

February 28th, 2015
Q.

My dental implant was infected almost immediately, and I have had 3 courses of antibiotics over the last 3 months. What should my dentist be doing? I have lost confidence in them as last week I went to have the ‘tooth’ part fitted, only to be told that the infection meant that there was not enough bone and I should come back this week for him to investigate.

My Daughter Has 10 Missing Adult Teeth. What Kind Of Treatment Will She Need As She Gets Older?

February 24th, 2015
Q.

Hi Dr Andrew. My daughter had her first dental X-ray today – she’s 9. The dentist has told us that she has 10 adult teeth missing, so will only have 18 adult teeth. She has had 4 adult teeth grow through. She has been referred to an orthodontist for further treatment. Please can you tell me what options are available to her as she gets older. Obviously, having 10 missing adult teeth could impact on her eating and speech. We are worried about her future and her self-esteem.
Any advice would be greatly received.
Thanks.
