Hello!
4 years ago I fell off a bicycle and injured my two upper front central incisors. One has been built up, while the other is already “dead” and filled. After 2 years, inflammation appeared on the second central incisor (the filled one); the dentist incised the gum so that the pus could drain. Now I have occasional problems, and the situation should be treated properly.
According to the latest X-rays, the dead central incisor is cracked, which could be causing the inflammation.
Most likely the tooth should be removed and an implant placed?
What is the procedure (how long does it take) and what is the approximate price at your practice? How does the treatment affect sports activities and air travel?
Thank you for your answers.
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
In the case of implantation in the area of the upper incisors, we often use immediate implantation (the tooth is extracted and the implant placed in the same session). The procedure takes a little over half an hour, and the sutures are removed after ten days. In most cases, we load the implant (make a crown on the implant) after approximately four months, and more rarely immediately after the operation. This decision depends mainly on bone density and anatomical conditions. The procedure does not affect the activities you mention in your question. Price of the complete treatment:
- EUR 750 (implant)
- EUR 420 (crown on implant).
Have a nice day!
