What Determines Whether I am a Candidate for Dental Implant Bone Grafting?

I want to transition from a dental bridge to dental implants. I got a dental bridge in 2007, and I can see the bone loss beneath the bridge. My dentist confirmed that I would need bone grafting before getting dental implants. Although our family dentist offers dental implants, she doesn’t place enough for me to […]

Can I Get Compensated for Dental Implant Failure?

Last September, I cracked a tooth, and my dentist recommended extraction. Following the extraction, I experienced severe burning and tingling in my mouth despite multiple lidocaine injections. The dentist attributed this to thrush, prescribed mouthwash, and proceeded with a dental implant. The implant placement was incredibly painful, and the placing the implant crown caused unbearable […]

My Dentist Wants to Remove an Implant He Placed in Shallow Bone

My Root Canal Tooth Got Infected

Last September, I had an infected root canal tooth, and the whole thing eventually failed. My dentist tried to save the tooth again, but he couldn’t. So last week I agreed to an extraction. It’s a front tooth, too. I’m going back and forth with whether to replace it with a dental bridge or an […]
