Dear Sir/Madam!
Last year my dentist drew my attention to a hard lump above the upper left central incisor and referred me to a specialist, who performed an apicoectomy and removed a cyst. At the same time he also inserted a build-up for a bridge. After healing, my dentist fitted a new bridge (3 front teeth) and a removable denture for four missing teeth on the left side. The clasp is exactly on this treated tooth, so the load on it is probably greater. A few months ago, a polyp started forming on the gum by this tooth, from which pus and blood would come out when pressed. As it kept getting larger, I went to my dentist, who surgically removed the polyp. Unfortunately, after only two weeks the problem returned; the polyp bothers me because it is uncomfortable, painful and visible when I smile. My dentist is on holiday for almost the whole month of July, and because I am very worried about what this may develop into, I am asking you for advice. I sincerely ask you to tell me what I should do. I am afraid I might lose the tooth and therefore also the bridge and partial denture, which were only made last year. Thank you for your answer. Kind regards!
