Has The Tip Of My Implant Screw Broken Off?

March 13th, 2014
Q.

Hi. Two years ago I broke a bridge snowboarding. I have had a three tooth implant. The veneers fell out this weekend whilst eating and the screw feels like it has broken. Not where it fits into the implant itself but the tip feels like it broke off in the veneer. The screw still feels firm in the implant so should the tip of the screw break? Ie one screw feels firm on the tip whilst the other has no tip and feels like a cylinder. I am seeing my specialist but wondered if this could be a fault with the screw. Cheers.

Can my sister have the second stage of her implant treatment performed in the UK?

September 28th, 2012
Q.

My sister had the first part of her single tooth implant done in South Africa in July. She then left to university in the UK intending to have the second stage done in December. It has proven difficult to arrange this due to university timetabling and the festive season holidays. Could she have the second part of the implant done in the UK with a different surgeon?
It has also been very difficult to get a clear indication of the exact appointments neccesary with both doctors (sugeon and dentist) in order for us to have a clear idea of what needs to be arranged and when. Is there a step by step, appointment by appointment, guide which patients can access to avoid this confusion?
