How much will an implant dentist charge to extract a tooth?

November 25th, 2011
Q.
I am looking into the cost of implant treatment to replace a pre-molar crown that needs extraction due to a longstanding infection in the root which flared up recently. I have been advised that the extraction should be done as soon as possible, and that there is some bone loss due to the infection. Is there any reason why my usual NHS dentist should not do the extraction prior to implant treatment? Or would you advise that the specialist doing the implant treatment should do the extraction? Thanks for your help.

What action should I take to fix a broken false tooth?

November 25th, 2011
Q.
I have an old type bridge that was fitted 25 years ago – the back tooth being crowned, with a metal bar running along the roof of my mouth to the front, where a “false” tooth is attached. This has worked perfectly well for me for 25 years but unfortunately today the front tooth has broken. What would be my best course of action – a dental implant or dentures! Remembering that the back tooth will also need to be re-crowned I presume! Could u please also advise approximate costs involved if possible. Many thanks,
A.

My jaw bone is weak due to cancer therapy, what can I do to get implants?

November 25th, 2011
Q.
I had tobgue cancer about 6 years ago and it has resulted in losing my tongue and 1/2 of my bottom teeth removed. My bottom jaw bone was cut during surgery and then screwed back together. The screws came out a year later, through my face. Presently, my jaw has shifted as well as all my remaining teeth. I look very odd. I have thought about implants but I was told my bone can’t hold them due to radiation. Is there anything you can do or even know of anything that can be done to improve my “looks”. I realize how lucky I am to be here 5 years after this diagnosis, but I would like to look a little bit more normal than I do right now. I have alot of support from family and friends but would like to do this for myself. Thank you for your imput.
