I Recently Lost A Tooth To An Accident, But Now I Have Two Different Consultations On What To Do Next?

August 14th, 2014
Q.

Dr. Fahey, I recently lost a tooth due to an accident. I’m 36 years old. I saw two dentists, both recommended implants. One said I need a Bio-Col ridge preservation technique done at the same time as tooth extraction, the other said a bone graft is sufficient. What is the difference? Is ridge preservation needed? The second dentist also said the bone graft should be done 3 weeks after the tooth extraction. Which treatment option is better? Thanks.

What would be the cost of implants to replace most, if not all, of my teeth?

June 17th, 2011
Q.
Hi. I\’m 49 and have always looked cleaned my teeth, but I\’ve now lost two upper teeth due to fracturing the roots. This is possibly through gritting my teeth so much, but I also had an RTA in 1995 and had a jaw and neck injury. I had a hard mouth shield made about ten years ago, but I could never sleep with it in and abandoned it after a few weeks. I\’ve recently seen a new dentist who has referred me to an NHS dental hospital as more teeth have fractured and my jaws ache, possibly through joint/disc problems, but he\’s warned me I\’ll probably lose the teeth. All of the teeth are upper and in the end I suppose they\’ll be about four or five need replacing; I\’m praying the front ones, which constantly ache, don\’t have to come out, too. I\’m very upset about losing my teeth and my funds are limited, but could you please give me an indication of the cost of implanting so many teeth and also the time scale from having the initial consultation to completion. Thanks.,
A.
I would recommend a specialist… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
