Visitor asks:

Hello. Four years ago my dentist replaced the post and crown on my upper central incisor because it had come off. Now the tooth is moving outward and is loose. She says the post cannot be replaced again and suggests either an implant or a bridge. I would like to know which procedure you recommend and what the price would be.
Thank you for your valued answer and kind regards.

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:

Dear Sir/Madam!

Based on the problems you describe, I assume that you have periodontal disease, which in its final stage leads to tooth mobility. A lost tooth can be replaced in different ways:
-by making a bridge (provided the neighbouring teeth are not mobile), but this requires preparation of the neighbouring teeth. If they have extensive fillings or carious lesions, choosing a bridge is not an unreasonable decision.
-If the neighbouring teeth are intact (healthy), I recommend replacement with a dental implant.

Price of a bridge: metal-ceramic crown (EUR 210) x 3 = EUR 630.
Price of an implant: implant (EUR 900) + crown on abutment (EUR 420) = EUR 1,320.

We look forward to your visit!
