New Implant Dentures, and I Don’t Enjoy Eating Anymore

Last September, I received implant dentures that were so uncomfortable. The denture teeth are too big, they don’t align, and my bite is off. I don’t look forward to eating anymore because chewing and swallowing food is difficult. I’ve had to stop accepting dinner invitations with friends because it’s so embarrassing and gross to choke […]

How Can I Find a Dentist for Implants If I Can’t Afford Them?

Can I Get Sedated for Dental Implants If I Use Methadone?

I’m supposed to have oral surgery for dental implants in December, but I haven’t shared with my surgeon that I’m on methadone.

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.

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

Before getting a dental implant, my doctor told me I had enough bone for it. My dentist spoke with me in the recovery room after surgery and said that the bone was poor, but he placed the implant anyway. That was three months ago. My dentist said the bone isn’t healing around the implants, so […]

Do I Need Implants for Three Teeth Broken Near My Gums?

Are dental implants the only way to save three teeth that broke near my gums? The teeth don’t hurt unless I bite or chew on them.
