I had two abutments and two crowns. When I left the office I didnt know I was covered with blood. I also took half a bottle of aspirin driving home. Then when I went to get the crowns the dentist in Tucson took off and moved to California and left everyone behind. He is still an approved dentist on my insurance plan. When I went to Mexico and got the crowns the porcelain fell off on the way home. The dentist said that the metal cap was still on the tooth so its still good. I never saw him again. I went to another dentist who broke one crown when he fixed the other one. I really hate dentists.
That's my issue.. I didn't know my dentist was working drunk.. He got ahold of me good.. He messed up all of my front teeth.. He was not held accountable.. But he's lost his license 3 times, he just changed the name and go again
Thank You a great deal Dr. .. May I ask Would you say that there is a greater probability of 1. Improper placement 2. A tooth failing or 3. Too much penetration of the gum that would cause Migraines 2 weeks post op on zyrconium .
IF the implants are installed correctly by a DDS or Doctor of Dental Surgery then usually they work out fine. Beware of going to these Dental Clinics that advertise bargain prices. I have 3 implants all done by the same Dentist. After 5 or more years they are still fine. No issues.
I have one implant,...it's better than having an ugly gap,..and helps with eating..need another one the other side...as will help with eating...yes you gets lots of swelling ,if you have a sinus lift...tooth extraction...is the final and worse experience...have to have another, but leaving it...as does not hurt.
I have nerve damage. I had teeth pulled after fixing because pain drove me nuts. I now have no bone still pain. Can you help with this dentures dont stay in and burn.
You must get it done by an oral surgeon and check REFRENCES. VERY IMPORTANT. Implants are Amazing!!! But must be done by a certified professional. Please do your homework.
I'm concerned about implant screws from China that look like standard wood screw thread. They are listed as titanium but look like stainless .I found them as cheap as $3. They say FDA approved but I found out many electrical items that have a CE approval stickers are not Certified but instead China claims it stands for China export
What about the alloys in titanium or aby other metals? In long term whos is at risk tk develop sensitivity? I read partcles of metal can chip into tissues and even the infection can spread to lungs ant other tissues in body. I hear ceeamic implants contain aluminium. Is this goimg to absorbs to body ?
Also I find it strange my implant broke recently and my x ray at the dentist said it’s a normal tooth it’s not I have an ultrasound that I can use n I saw it on that and I’m extremely worried and I’m scared to have it removed by an oral surgeon if they don’t have the right information and I am scared that my infection will be bad it’s been almost two weeks my implants extremely sharp I don’t feel right where I last had a tooth removed and I’m extremely freaked out until these people can get me treatment that’s covered because you see I’m on government assistance benefits and they might cover it I don’t know
You mean that you are on Medicaid or Medicare. Neither cover implants. They are not going to pay for them to be removed. Where did you go to have it done??? They or another dentist will have to remove it. You would be paying for all of it.
Doctor I had a dental implant on my upper right central incisor area on the 13th November. I had a ridge expansion done to get the implant in, small amount of bone due to give recession. Lost my tooth a year ago... On the 4th December I have developed an ulcer like structure on my gum where the implant area is. My dentist said that it's potentially infected and I'm really scared. He popped the ulcer and gave me more amoxicillin and now a antibiotic called Metronidazole I don't really want to take the anti biotics because they're going to ruin my gut bacteria. Do you think there actually a chance my implant is infected or do you think it's a coincidence that i have an ulcer in that area 4 weeks after the implant
Hi Zayn, thanks for your comment, sorry for late reply. I would recommend you go and see your dentist asap. It may be that something is not right and your dentist would need to see this to check and advise you accordingly.
I have an upper front dental bridge for 35 years which needs replacing. Have a fair amount of bone loss. What is the best option for me - 6 individual implants or an implant supported bridge of 3 Units each ? Which one of these option has a better chance to succeed ? Approximately what cost range am I looking at for each option ? Thanks Shema
Thank you for inquiry, each treatment and advice about the best possible solution for you will be unique to your problem. Hence it is very important that you see your dentist and let them decide how best to resolve your problem. The treatment needs to be customised for you taking into consideration how much bone you have, what degree of bone loss you have experienced etc. We do provide a free initial implant assessment at our clinic with one of our experienced implant dentists. If you need any further information please do let us know.
I had a molar removed by a dentist who withheld information from me. He never told me the possible risks of having a tooth missing. And now I’m starting to notice the teeth next to the missing space in my mouth shifting. It’s so infuriating! I’ve been looking into getting an implant but this video has me thinking twice about that.
Hi, I'm also missing a molar (I broke the tooth beyond repair due to bruxism, that one night that I forgot to wear my mouth guard...). I got checked to see if an implant was possible and I'm not a suitable candidate. The main concern was the tooth shifting that you mention, but the dentist told me that the mouth guard that I wear every night should keep the teeth at their right places, it kind of works as a retainer for me.
Doctor what happens when a person ages or falls in a debilitating dease later in life will implant fall naturally over time?? I’m curious because my mothers implants starting falling off, after she had cancer at the age of 59 and many other complications and her implants just started falling one by one.
thanks for your comment, dental implants if placed correctly can last a lifetime. However they do and can fail if overall health deteriorates. It is difficult to say what exactly has caused the failure of implants in your moms case, you would need to see a dentist to better understand the reasons behind this.
@@BrunoSilva-ox2es hi I have dental implants and they're fine - my dentist told me that gums must be healthy in order to work on them - I suppose if gum infection sets in later on it could be more complicated with implants in place... I love my implanted teeth - tk goodness 4 modern dentistry
@@susanmargaretwills6432 yes really important, you must take good care of your gums, brushing and flossing daily is super important. Gum disease can affect implants in the same way as it affects natural teeth.
@@susanmargaretwills6432 yes exactly whilst implants are very robust they can be susceptible to gum problems, best to keep oral hygiene and health optimal, have a good day
I had a dental implant almost 2 weeks ago with gum graft. The first few days I was ok. Every day the pain gets worse. Went for my one week check and was told that it looked good. I told them about the toothache type pain all along my bottom jaw. They gave me another antibiotic. I am living on OTC pain meds. This is miserable and I am confused why I am hurting like this. Any suggestions?
Hi Gina, best would be to speak to your dentist, you may need to see them again for some re assurance that the wound is healing well. Dental implant treatment and grafts can be uncomfortable and its not uncommon that it can hurt for sometime. I am sorry I cant provide more help
@@BrunoSilva-ox2es it took 3 weeks to finally get relief. Went to dentist. They couldn't figure out why I was in pain. They shot me full of novacain.. The next day in felt much better. Very odd
hi amanda, it depends on the current state of your teeth and also how complex your case is, if you have more than usual amounts of bone then the treatment will be quite straight forward however if you are limited in terms of bone volume then it can be more complex and take more treatment time. You need to have a thorough assessment with a dentist to get a comprehensive treatment plan done, this will usually outline the number of appointments and also the costs involved.

Thank you Doctor.
What brand of dental implant do you use and what material are they made of? Thanks.
Great! There’s more failures then perfection

How much did you pay for your implant?
Hello where arw you from, who is your dentist?
Can you tell me the address of the clinic? Please and hosw much per tooth
Do you have any health issues else where in the body that may be related to the positions of the Implant in relation to the body meridians ?
Thank you 🙏🏻
and not one word on peri-implantitis complications and how that would be treated down the road....smh
I have one implant,...it's better than having an ugly gap,..and helps with eating..need another one the other side...as will help with eating...yes you gets lots of swelling ,if you have a sinus lift...tooth extraction...is the final and worse experience...have to have another, but leaving it...as does not hurt.
1 chance in 10 fail rate , count me out . Thanks for the advice Doc.
of course pain is 'subjective'
I just had one three days ago I had no pain after but my face is swollen today. Thank you!!
It's good and there no bad smell in the mouth??
Hows it going now? How Did it turn out?
@@margaretmccomb3672 it's great, no problems after that day. Thank you!
I have nerve damage. I had teeth pulled after fixing because pain drove me nuts. I now have no bone still pain. Can you help with this dentures dont stay in and burn.
Is there a risk if it breaks and or there’s drilling from fillings nearby
You must get it done by an oral surgeon and check REFRENCES. VERY IMPORTANT. Implants are Amazing!!! But must be done by a certified professional. Please do your homework.
What do you mean "check references"
She means find people who used the oral surgeon before. Seeing if they had successful surgery.
I have nerve throbbing shocking pain on one side have u ever seen that I’m 2 weeks post op
I wouldn’t call a 10-20% failure rate rare.
I'm concerned about implant screws from China that look like standard wood screw thread. They are listed as titanium but look like stainless .I found them as cheap as $3. They say FDA approved but I found out many electrical items that have a CE approval stickers are not Certified but instead China claims it stands for China export
Why are so many complaints coming out? It's not always the dentist.

I read partcles of metal can chip into tissues and even the infection can spread to lungs ant other tissues in body. I hear ceeamic implants contain aluminium. Is this goimg to absorbs to body ?
Good question....
Good point. Im not convinced. Im staying with dentures.
I've been looking at a lot of videos. I'm thinking about getting one implant, but I'm scared.
you're not alone
I wouldn't get it if I were you
@@marcelletalksmma Do you have an implant?
Same. Just read another comment on how it has ruined their life. Just my luck. I'll pass.
Am scared. Think let me pass this

I m also experiencing same condition.
My dentist is giving antibiotic after antibiotic....No improvement so far after 5 days of antibiotic.
What is the safest way to get false teeth without them look fake or fall out?
Have ones,..that don't look perfect ,mabe a bit imperfect looking..I would.
What happens if the implant doesn’t fuse and it doesn’t heal, what percentage of people are successful the 2nd time?
My mom had couple of her implants done second time. They were successful.
I have an upper front dental bridge for 35 years which needs replacing.
Have a fair amount of bone loss. What is the best option for me - 6 individual implants or an implant supported bridge of 3 Units each ?

In my case it started to happen within months of having the tooth pulled. I am getting removable dentures in few months.
Teeth suck. I get it pulled rather than fixed because eventually it will come back to cause more misery. Once thayre out, no more pain forever

That happened to me. They were too big. I got them changed literally last week. My lips look how they should now. Where did you get them done?
My face looks bigger and I can feel every single one of them my lips got wider.
Denture is the best

@@hutchinsonscott100 yes I would. Mine was on odd case.
This doctor is not telling the real complications and risks. He is talking Disneyland stuff
sell the vanity, sell the feel good, sell the dream
what are the real risks and complications? I've searched on the web and everything he said here was in fact true.
What are the real risks? Please tell me I’m trying to figure out if implant or bridge is best
I have regular bridge. It has been fine even since I got it. That was 15 years ago.
He does not seem to be telling the truth
Very generic info....
How much do you charge to get all the teeth done?
hi amanda, it depends on the current state of your teeth and also how complex your case is, if you have more than usual amounts of bone then the treatment will be quite straight forward however if you are limited in terms of bone volume then it can be more complex and take more treatment time. You need to have a thorough assessment with a dentist to get a comprehensive treatment plan done, this will usually outline the number of appointments and also the costs involved.
