Question:

I need advice and results from you, my teeth aren't so good, and I'm thinking about either implants or

and I'm thinking about either implants or porcelin bridges. I am still young, 23 and really self consciese about my teeth, can you tell me on average how much it costs and maybe other solutions. I have many cavities and I know fillings only last maybe 5 years.


Answers:

Implants and bridges are used to replace missing teeth, or badly broken-down teeth that cannot be treated and need to be extracted. These are not options to be taken lightly.

Only a dental professional can determine whether or not you are a suitable implant candidate, taking into account many factors such as your state of health (implants require invasive surgery), the amount of bone present (you need a certain amount of bone to anchor implants securely), presence of structures in the area that might interfere with implants (sinuses, mandibular nerves, etc.), periodontal health, space available, etc. It's not as simple as saying "I want implants."

I agree with Dr. Albert above. You need to get a full evaluation of your oral condition from a dentist, so that you can learn what kind of treatments are the most sensible for your situation. Implants and bridges are not a panacea for all dental problems.

Hope this helps.
