it depends on how many implants for the specific type of prosthesis design. You can check out website for the various treatment options- You can contact us via our website to discuss more specifics and perhaps send an X-ray for me to provide you a better idea.
I have two implants, one of which has experienced loss of bone above the implant site. I would like to have this issue addressed, although the implant is functional. I have been told grafting around an implant is not an option; does this mean I need to have the implant extracted, the bone (and maybe the gum) augmented, a new implant post placed, and a new crown made? Thank you.
I was in a car accident about a year ago, and I had to have 3 root canals done on my two front teeth and the tooth the the right of them. I just found out today from my dentist that the root canals failed on two of them and my only option is to extract my right front tooth and the one next to it. I'm getting implants. I was told that it will take 6 months for the bone to heal before permanent crowns can be put on. My question is: How closely to the temporary crowns resemble the permanent ones?
The temporary crowns that will be made on the implants are usually left in place for about 3 months and they should be absolutely as close as possible to the final permanent ones. This is because they help to shape the gum tissue and create the natural appearance before the final crown is made. I hope this answers your question.
@implantguru - Thanks for your reply, Dr. Kazemi. Unfortunately, I was given the wrong information by my dentist. When I went to the oral surgeon, he took one look at my x-ray and said, "Because of excessive bone loss, you may not be a candidate for implants." I was mortified. Tomorrow I am having teeth #7 and #8 extracted and a bone grafting procedure done. For 4-5 months I have to wear a "flipper." I'm worried what will happen if the bone graft doesn't work. What would be option #2 for me?
Hi. Bone grafting procedures are available to restore bone for implant placement. So depending on your oral surgeon's experience and skills, they can offer you the options on how it can be done. Bone graft in extraction sites are relatively predictable and successful procedures and they work quite well. If it does not work (which is very rare) it can be attempted again later. Sorry, without X-rays or photos I can not give you any more precise answers. Dr. Kazemi
@implantguru - Once again, I appreciate your reply, Dr. Kazemi. I'm pretty sure I'm in good hands with the surgeon I'm going with. His name is David Howerton, and his practice is in Oregon. I was hoping you could answer just 2 more questions for me: Let's say after repeated attempts with the bone grafting, that is just doesn't work. Would my next option be a bridge of some sort? Oh yeah, I'm very nervous about this flipper retainer. Do they look natural? Will people notice? Surgery in 15 hours.
if for some reason grafting is not successful and implants can not be placed, then a bridge may be the only option. As for the flipper, they can look ok if made well. There are other temporary options available- your dentists should know those in case they need to get better fit or cosmetic result.- good luck- Dr. kazemi
@implantguru - I had my surgery a week ago (extraction and socket preservation/bone grafting of teeth #7 and #8), and my oral surgeon said it went very well. He said it will take 4-5 months. Does that seem like a reasonable amount of time? I really hope this works and that I'm able to get the implants because the bridge doesn't sound nearly as nice. Also, assuming I'm able to get the implants, would it be possible to get veneers on my other front teeth that match the color of the implant crowns?
Dear Dr., I had two implants done a week ago for missing upper lateral incisors. I used to have a Maryland Bridge but now have these implants. The problem is I'm not happy with the way the temporary crowns look - they are somewhat shorter than all my other front teeth and the difference is upsetting me. Couldn't the dentist have simply made them as long? Is there a way to make the temporaries longer? Is it risky? I really appreciate your response and thank you so much.
The question is are the temporary crowns supported by the implants at this time? If the temporary crowns are supported by the implants, then it is the best opportunity for your dentist to optimize its shape, length, and cosmetic values. Because it will essentially set the stage for the final crowns to come. You might want to discuss this with your dentist. Hopefully he knows about the cosmetic criteria and techniques to make it happen. - Dr. Kazemi
