Are dental implants best option for missing tooth?

September 19th, 2010
Q.
One of my teeth had to be extracted because it had been decayed beyond rescue. At the time I could not afford any further treatment and so the gum has healed. Whenever I smile the gap is evident and it is really getting me down. I am now employed and have saved up money for an implant, but was wondering if I am okay for them. The guim has healed but will this make any difference. Are implants the best option for a missing tooth? What would be a good tooth attachment for a single implant?

Can you get help on NHS for dental implants?

September 11th, 2010
Q.
My good friend used to have beautiful teeth up until about 4 years ago when she admitted she had Bulimia. This had an effect upon her teeth and since then she has lost all the top and 8 on the bottom all taken out because of problems from the Bulimia. This girl is agorophobic and wont let people see her ( she hides her mouth ). She has got dentures but she does not wear them as they hurt/dont fit well. She has a couple of mental health issues but this is the main one- not going out; she feels that everyone is talking about how bad her teeth are behind her back. She is in receipt of Disability living allowance would she get help on the NHS for dental implants – I think it would change her life back in to the outgoing person she was. Thank you.
A.
she should contact her local P… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
