Answer Snippet
Lower front tooth implant possible?
Not to worry!.
Nov 3, 2023
Hello there!, almost any tooth can be replaced with an implant if there is sufficient bone around the area around the tooth to replace. I know lower anterior teeth are tricky to replace with implants, but there is plenty of implant selection, as far as sizes and diameters, that make the task doable. So don’t worry, if you need and implant to replace a small tooth, just make sure you do it right away to preserve the bone around the space.
Need a root canal and probably a crown at 21 years old – advice?
Take care of tooth ASAP!.
Nov 2, 2023
Hello there, don’t wait to get the molar restored and treated, you can save it!. When a root canal is done, the filling or material placed where the missing tooth is, is not sufficient to provide enough strength to resist biting forces, I think that’s why the previous molar fractured, when you don’t protect it right away, it can fracture and you end up losing all the work completed. So don’t wait for this to happen to the other tooth, take care of it and restore it with a crown right away. I…
Dental Implant Crowns – Shape & Translucence are off. Can it be fixed?
It takes a ceramist!
Nov 2, 2023
Hello there, I believe it can be fixed!, the key to the whole outcome when it comes to implant crowns is to determine which esthetic material is the best for each patient, depending on how their natural are, how much chroma, translucency and hue the patient has on their natural teeth. These factors determine which porcelain will be better to restore the implants and always trying tasty away from metal copings or metal abutments, to prevent the dark chroma from them. I prefer to use zirconia…
What else can be done for my facial asymmetry?
Multidisciplinary approach
Nov 2, 2023
Cases of facial asymmetry due to previous dental treatment or abnormal growth of the mandibles can be difficult to correct, most of the time they involve the care of a team in which each specialist try to gain back the symmetry on all third facial profiles, a care from an oral surgeon, plastic surgeon and a cosmetic dentist, sometimes is needed in this complex cases, they take time and is bumpy road while recovering, but it can be done!, I would recommend consulting with a group of surgeon…
Is laser assisted crown removal an option for patients who don’t need a root canal? Worried about p
Not to worry about removing the crown
Nov 2, 2023
You can have the crown removed by using a laser or using conventional high-speed handpiece, both are effective and can be done without damaging the supporting tooth structure. The tooth has to be prepared anyway with a traditional high-speed handpiece in order to provide a new finishing line or margin, so the dental lab can fabricate the new crown sealing the tooth perfectly. Both methods offer the same result, sometimes the laser takes more time and both are done with irrigation, so no…
Dentist left part of my tooth exposed with new crown, are they responsible to replace it?
Communicate your concerns directly with the Dr!
Nov 2, 2023
Hello there, I advice to communicate directly with the Doctor who performed the dental work, express how you feel and the symptoms you are having, sometimes we leave a portion of the tooth for other reasons, or to prevent damaging the tooth structure with the preparations, there are many factors in consideration, but definitely try to address your concern and let them know you are feeling sensitivity. I can speculate about what could happened since I don’t have any photos before and after,…
Am I a candidate for porcelain veneers based on the attached X-Ray?
Diagnostic phase is crucial for any dental treatment
Sep 5, 2023
Hello there…I would recommend to get a professional consultation where you can personally express why you are thinking about getting veneers done. This is a very cosmetic treatment and it requires a profound evaluation of many aspects of the oral cavity. I wouldn’t recommend treatment to anyone based on a single radiograph or a single picture, there is more to it, specially porcelain veneers. Just get in contact with a high end cosmetic dentist with a lot of expertise in the subject, book…
