This video is highly so much helpful. Was wondering which option to go for. Now I know what is the best option. I prefer a removable bridge as i prepare myself for an implant since its expensive for my one upper missing tooth and lower missing molars
i have many implants and generally happy with them , now the tooth number 9 implant taht was put in 12 years ago broke off in half ( while eating grapes ) . The crown and abuttment and part of implant came off and the other half is firmly and comfortably in the jaw bone without pain . An extraction of the broken implant , then a bone graft and a new implant is an option but not my priority . Instead i am thinking if a monodont bridge would work considering that the adjacant teeth are also implants with porcelain crowns . Please advise .
I had two missing lateral incisors replaced with zirconia fixed dental bridges and as well three bottom teeth replaced due to hypodontia. I wish I got dental implants instead and get depressed, as I feel I destroyed my natural teeth and fear the repercussions of having done this. I was told i didn't have enough space for dental implants for the lateral incisors and would have needed braces which would have been expensive , and had no bone for the bottom teeth. I was young when I had this done, and didn't fully contemplate how destructive bridges can be!!
Gotcha. Keep in mind that dental implants can have issues over time. Especially if you have one placed at an early age. The mouth and face can continue to grow, while the implant stays in one place. It results in the implant tooth looking shorter than the other teeth. Once the crown is replaced to match the teeth, the implant will look too long. I'll post a photo in my community tab on my channel so you can see what I'm talking about.
Hi, Thanks for the video. I will have my left side lower jaw premolar tooth removed. I am debating between implant, a partial single denture. I dont like the invasive aspect of implant, so would the 2nd option be suitable to be comfortable and assist with stopping other teeth movement and or bone erosion? I am in good health as are my teeth. thank you
Hi I have missing lower 6 and my 5 and 6 had root canal, is bridge a good option to fill that gap? I need to put crowns on these teeth anyway but I’m worried that this bridge can affect these 5 and 7 and make them brake or shorter their lifespan
I Knocked My Front Tooth Out When I Was Young. I Am Very Insecure About My Tooth and Am Looking Into A Bridge . I Am To Scared Of Implants And Also Can't Afford It. Does The Removable Bridge Break Easily? I Have A Flipper For 8 Years Now With No Issues ! Thank Doc!
@@VeryNiceSmileDental sir please tell me my dentist said root canal and he said and it's not guaranteed tooth can lost anytime so what should I do doctor should I go for root canal or not
Hello Sir , Great video I got 1 dental implant 22 (left lateral incisor) done 4 months back it had healed beautiful but while my dentist was getting the trials done for the crown the implant was shaking on further evaluation it failed I was given the reason that the implant didn't integrate with the bone now they have offered me a bridge but I m very concerned as mentioned (Three tooth problem) I m only 22 should I go for the bridge or try for another implant ? (I have already had ortho done) Please Any suggestions
@@VeryNiceSmileDental Thank You So Much For Your Reply, Honestly I got opinions from 2 different dentist out of which one suggested in favour and the other one didn't so I reached out to you. (I made an error I have missing lateral incisor for which the permanent bridge is suggested) So Going For dental Implant once again is possible at the same place ? ( 3.13mm × 13.46mm Bone width × length )
Gotcha. A missing lateral incisor can be replaced with a fixed bridge. Depending on your situation, another attempt at an implant may be possible, but get a third and fourth opinion. See an oral surgeon who does implants in your situation. ( or a periodontist). 3.13 mm of width will likely need bone grafting to bulk it up a bit.
Hi, it depends on your situation. See a dentist so they can evaluate your particular situation and let you know what your options are, and the pros and cons of each option. With 3 missing teeth, I would tell you to look into a removable bridge or dental implants. The diabetes will complicate things.
Thanks for video. My teeth number 1/1 and 2/2 are half broken as a result of an accident and now one of 1 are almost infected the dentist suggests the permanent bridge as to solve 3 other half teeth as well what is your idea in this case?
Doctor I have a question please. I tried to ask help from many oral surgeons and dentist but they don’t have any answer for me. I have pain on the upper right side, the roof of the mouth. There is a small lump like thing on edge and there is pain coming from that. Please tell me what is that and how to fix it
Hi, it could be a bunch of different things. You need to see a dentist or oral surgeon who can help you in person. They need to examine you and take x-rays.
too bad some of the videos don't discuss price, im having a permanent bridge done now, 2 missing teeth in the right places, one on either side of my two upper front teeth. very expensive, in the end the total cost of xrays, some other minor work and the bridge, just over 5 grand. now after watching lots of videos im wondering if two implants wouldn't have been a better idea and close to same cost.
How much ??? I had 1 today for 1 tooth I payed 470 that's including all 5 appointments and the extraction of the last bit of tooth still there and they let me off with 150 quid so all costs would of been 630 private so your being ripped off hard but im in UK so I dunno if your from here
Hi, it depends on a lot of variables. I have patients with bridges that were placed 30 years ago that are still doing well. I have seen some bridges fail in a few years, usually due to cavities forming under the bridge.
I have a bridge in lower right side. The tooth infront of bridge ia killing me & the bridge is causing me pain too. Super super sensitive to heat/cold. In September last year I had #18 removed from my left side & the year before that #17. Now the top left side is starting to bug me too. Any suggestions what would work best?
What about if you have severe periodontal disease and your gums inflame and go down? I'm on a med that causes gum problems and I cannot come off this med.
Hi. It depends on your particular situation. I've had patients who weren't candidates for a fixed bridge or dental implants due to periodontal issues and other health issues. They had to get something removable.
It depends on the situation. If money is no object, and the person is healthy, an implant is usually the best option. Thank you very much for watching!
@@VeryNiceSmileDental I'm honestly not sure why my dentist chose this route. One tooth had to be extracted because it was loose and to try to save it wasy very risky. My dentist made clear this was my only option but just wished i got a second opinion. I dont like the idea i wont be able to floss.
Usually after losing a tooth you have 4 options. Leaving a space, getting a removable bridge, getting a 3 tooth fixed bridge, or getting an implant. Your dentist should have discussed all 4 options with you. You can still floss around your 3 tooth bridge, you just need to use a floss threader or superfloss now.
I just left the Dentist and they are doing implants and bridge. Upper right side missing 2 teeth and middle has to go as well. Not sure exactly what he is doing. Said it will be a 6 month process. Getting a temp partial while implant heals. Does this seem like best option? The bridge ?
Just to be clear, you're having one tooth pulled, and two other teeth are already missing, is that correct? If that is the situation, your options are usually two implants and a three tooth bridge on the implants (the bridge stays in permanently) or a removable bridge that you have to take out every night. Of those two options, the implant bridge is the better option. I don't recommend fixed bridges on teeth that are that long ( it would be a 5 tooth bridge, the three missing teeth and a tooth on either side of the space to hold it up). I hope that makes sense, let me know if it doesn't.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental yes you are correct. They are doing the two implant permanent bridge. So all good then it seems. I was unsure. Thank you for the response!!!
I have bottom central 2 incisors impacted . 4 times root canal was done and a bone grafting but still again I got the infection back and now the prosthodontics said we have extract 2 teeth and there is some wear and tear on lateral incisors as well and in general they don’t support the bridge load of center teeth. She was suggesting to remove all 4 central teeth ( 2 impacted, 2 healthy) bonegraft all 4 and put bridge with the support of canines as they are strong and had good bone .. due to recurrent infection there is bone loss under the central 2 teeth. So she said implant is not an option for me . But I am confused and worried to remove 2 healthy teeth as well . I am 39 year old . I have this 2 teeth issue from the age 10 . Kindly suggest what would be the best option in my scenario.
I took second opinion As well . 2 options they provided 1. Implants for 2 central incisors( they said they can try but difficult in my case due to chronic infection and bone loss ) 2 . bridge with help of canines removing all 4 incisors I am not ok with removing lateral incisors as they are healthy only central incisors got infected and need to be extracted . Since bridge on lateral incisors will not be strong they are suggesting to remove lateral incisors as well to avoid future problems .
Is it true that if you get dental bridges then your face will start to sag and sink due to the loss of bone tissue and an implant may help restore the sagging instead?
Hi, losing teeth will cause your face to look sunk in but it takes years and losing a lot of teeth to get to that point. Replacing missing teeth, either with a bridge or with implants will help prevent that appearance. Thank you very much for watching.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental okay thanks for this because i saw some info on bridges saying they dont address bone loss. It says “Because bridges sit above the gum line, the jawbone will continue to deteriorate”. So is this false and will bridges help the face keep its structure?
It depends on the person. I have patients that have fixed dental bridges (2 crowns with a false tooth in between made as one piece) where the bone under the false tooth didn't shrink away at all.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental what do you mean at 4:37 about not having a back tooth to anchor it and therefore a permanent bridge isn’t useful. I didn’t get that part
@@marco7838 a fixed bridge needs teeth on both sides of a space to stay in place. If there is no tooth behind the space (you are missing 2 teeth, not just one) you can't place a fixed bridge.
Hii...my upper two right incisor teeths are missing and left side incisor teeth is little moving when I bugde with my fingers so....can I go for permanent dental bridge??
Hi, if the teeth on either side of the space are moving a little, they shouldn't be used to support a fixed bridge. They may not be strong enough. Have you dentist take a look but dental implants may be a better idea.
@@VeryNiceSmileDental hello doctor, there is a molar tooth Missing in the upper left part of my jaw due to an accident, i was planning to get either bridge or implants in the future (when i have enough saved up) but suddenly the tooth just adjacent to the missing area got infected,and now the dentist is saying that he needs to remove it as well because RCT is not possible on it, what i want to ask is are bridges still possible to fix my teeth? Before i was planning to get three set bridge ,but now I'm thinking of making a four set (two to fill gap and two for support)
@@coldplayfan7357 Hi, it depends if the teeth that are left are strong enough to support a bridge that long. Did you ask your dentist what they thought about making a longer bridge?
@@VeryNiceSmileDental they said that they could do it,but they still recommended implants more, is it not possible to do dental bridge for more than one tooth?
@@coldplayfan7357 It's possible, but the longer the bridge, the shorter it's life span. If you can get dental implants, that may be the better way to go. If you are not comfortable with what your dentist is telling you, get a second opinion.
I lost two upper front teeth to accident. Now, I don't know the option to go for because I have diastema. I'm using removable artificial at the moment and am not so comfortable with it. Please, what should I do?
@@VeryNiceSmileDental it's over 10 years now. Actually, the both incisors didn't fall instantly but was seriously affected. At a point, they started shaking and decaying so my dentist have to fill up both incisors and the root canals. Last year, one of the incisors finally break and can not be amended again so it was removed and replaced with a denture. Now the remaining incisor is about to fall and have kept me in distress. I want to get it removed but am confused on how to replace the both central incisors if I get the remaining one removed. The width will be much because I have diastema in-between both incisors. What should I do?
Hi, short term fix would be a new small removable partial denture (a flipper). Implants may be possible but it can be tricky to replace both teeth with 2 implants. Are the adjacent teeth strong enough for a fixed bridge? What does your dentist recommend?
@@VeryNiceSmileDental Hi, the dentist recommend treating the remaining teeth and crowning it while I keep using denture for the already lost teeth. I don't like bridge that's why am still using denture. Is it totally impossible for me to get an implant for the already lost teeth while he treat and crown the remaining teeth?
Hi, sorry, I just saw your reply. It really depends on your situation if an implant would be possible. Get a second opinion if you aren't comfortable with what your dentist is proposing.
