Endodontics (root canal treatment)
This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.
Visitor asks:
The bridge that replaced teeth 14, 16 and 17 and was attached to tooth 15 and tooth 18 was removed because tooth 18 hurt on pressure.
Tooth 15 is non-vital. A metal post is inserted in it. Tooth 18 is vital with a fairly large filling. Endodontic treatment may be necessary. The X-ray shows that the root portions of both teeth are fine. Such a bridge served its purpose for 20 years.
Please give me your advice on restoring this area, how soon I could be treated at your practice and what the cost would be.
Thank you and best regards.
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
Based on the X-ray (as you describe it), it is possible to make another bridge on the two abutment teeth. If necessary, root canal treatment of tooth 18 is certainly recommended before making the bridge. Price:
-210 Eur (metal-ceramic crown) X 5 = 1050 Eur.
We try to adapt the waiting time to the patient’s needs.
Have a nice day!
