    I went to a dentist about 7 years ago. On the first visit he just started pulling teeth. But the 3rd visit he pulled 12 teeth because they had cavities. Some were kind of bad but a crown could have fixed it. In the end he pulled my 4 front teeth on the top. I've been stuck with an ill fitting partial ever since. I despise it. I have to use fixodent just to eat a sandwich. Now I'm seeing a new dentist and had my records forwarded and the new dentist said every single tooth could have been saved. But the new dentist is doing a bridge with 1 implant anchor because it spans 8 teeth. Moral of the story, research your dentist before you let them do anything to you

    I just had a bridge done on me last week. The dentist used my original tooth to do it. It was sticking out more than the others in the bottom of my mouth because I don't have any bones in that part of my gum anymore. He pulled it out, filed it down and did his thing in one day. Looks amazing and I would recommend getting a bridge to anyone that needs it!

    You shojkd have got implant instead of destroying the two healthy teeth beside the bad one. Now that you got that teeth removed then you will face no tooth Clause from your dental insurance where they won't pay for any work on area that has no tooth. Should've got implant that will keep all your teeth safe.

    ​​@wydiacloud7510honey, I was too trust me. I had the same issue with bone loss in the specific area of loose tooth. When I got my braces off years ago, the ortho left the bracket on that tooth for fear she'd accidentally rip the tooth out. Over the years the tooth just deteriorated, and I'm just now starting the bridge process because that tooth is no longer functional. I was 😢 too when they were explaining it to me. Like ANYTHING but that😅. But they just put the temp bridge in and so far it isn't horrible. Took a little less than 2 hrs. Eat soft stuff for about 4 days, otc pain meds and a prescription mouth rinse. I go back in 2 weeks for final bridge placement. Trust God and your dentist. You got this! ETA: the cost (for extraction, bone graft, and bridge) was $2195 if you have to plan around your finances. If you don't need a bone graft, it's probably a little less.

    Thanks doc, very well explained. I had both upper front tooth broken in youth, left failing at senior age, had to be removed. The possibility was a bridge or implant with crown. At this date crown is placed a day a go and I think it feels good. Surgeon and dentists did a very good job. Yes, it costs money, and I was almost 1 year with missing front tooth. The argument not taking a bridge was from both surgeon and dentist, that the adjacent teeth were not strong enough, special the right upper front tooth, because it als was broken in youth. When dentists fitted the crown on implant he also said, lets do the other front tooth and he replaced the plate (or jacket) on it. Dentist also reminded to keep good mouth health, floss and/or tooth pick. Lets go for it. Bill between 2000 and 2500 euro.

    I have a question in regards to on my bridge that I just had done. How much saliva coming through your Bridges is too much? What I mean is when I'm talking saliva is coming through the spaces and I'm pretty much spitting in people's faces when I'm talking to them and having to constantly wipe my lips. It's almost as if my bridge is not making contact with the gums at all. My dentist said we have to have space in there to clean. I mean floss is not that thick therefore the connection between the bridge and the gums should not have that much space to clean it. It's very uncomfortable they already replaced one of my crowns because there was a big gap and it was causing me pain I just want them to take them all out and redo them again but they keep brushing me off and it's really make me mad because I spent a lot of money on them for them to be pretty much perfect.

    I'm wondering if there is hope for me. I used to have the most beautiful smile. Unfortunately, I suffered from domestic violence and my two front teeth were broken. I received crowns and they lasted 15 years but I later developed bone density. They removed my left front tooth and I received a bone graph. Now the other tooth in the front is weak. I was given a horrible flipper that doesn't match with a gap and I have to take it out to eat. In a public restaurant, I keep a napkin held to my face with the flipper inside the palm of my hand. If I'm approached, I've learned how to smoothly put the flipper back in and wipe my lips as if I didn't want to talk with my mouth full. After 5 years, I just want to smile and feel normal again.

I was in much confusion since dental bridges fall, decay as read on internet (avg life 5 to 15 yrs). Dentist told ceramic bridges will be lifetime since material used will be resin bonded. But here after watching this video and reading comments, I think it's better to not go for dental bridge, and go for flexible partial dentures. Please advice.

I made him cut out the bridge and kept the 2 healthy teeth sides for crowns, since they drilled half my teeth down to fit the bridge. While that worked out, It cause trauma to yet another tooth and I lost that one. I am 67 with all my teeth but two. Wanted to get this done before I retired. Now Retired I am out two teeth and my bite is off. I no longer have the money to fix it and with what to do about it.

    Do not remove your teeth. Keep if you can it's better than dentures or implants don't rush if you are not sure. Many dentists don't do their job as an art as they should the shape and the size of theeth matters. every time someone smiles you'll notice, it's not the patient fault but the dentists. I wish all the dentists do their job as an art and as if it was their teeth but there are very few out there. I hope everyone would find one.

So I am wondering why did he did that , Are there some advantages of it if we do the RCT before ? or did he just do it to make some money ? I am really feeling bad knowing I have destroyed my other fine teeths as well. Would RCT treated teeth cause problem in future ?

I have to wait a few months for my bone implants to graft so will have to wait and see how that goes as the implants rely on that. I just have in what they call a flipper right now that I remove at night. It looks great but feels Alien in my mouth. I play the saxophone and can’t play with my flipper in so have to take out and rest mouthpiece on my next tooth over to improvise not a great look but it kinda works for now.
