Visitor asks:
Dear Sir/Madam! I am 57 years old. Please advise me if you can. In the upper jaw I have an 18-year-old bridge that will be replaced. However, I was shocked when during treatment my dentist had to remove on the left side the lateral incisor (which was attached), the canine (attached), the first premolar and the second premolar; beyond that there are no more teeth. On the right side there are still five teeth (crowns). Now I am completely desperate because a partial denture awaits me. Would you advise one or two implants on the left side and what would the price be? Would the implant alone be sufficient and then my own dentist could continue at the expense of the insurance company, or would a crown also have to be placed on the implant and then treatment continued by my own dentist at the expense of the insurance company?
Please answer because I am completely desperate and cannot come to terms with a denture. Kind regards!

Dear Sir/Madam!
If I have understood the described status correctly (the lateral incisor, canine and first molar are missing on the left side), the lateral incisor and canine can be mounted on one implant, while the second implant would serve to replace the first molar. You would therefore need two implants. The price of an implant is EUR 750, so EUR 1,500 in total. Your dentist can do the prosthetic work (dental crowns). At our practice, the price for crowns is:
EUR 420 (crown on implant) X 2 = EUR 840 + EUR 210 metal-ceramic pontic = EUR 1,050.
Have a nice day!
