Visitor asks:
Hello,
I have a small problem.
On the lower left I have the second molar, first molar and second premolar that need to be extracted. My dentist suggested that I have implants placed in the positions of the second molar and second premolar. She says the first premolar is fine, although it also has fillings. My wisdom tooth has also erupted, but it has an irregular shape.
I would like to know whether it is really impossible to make a bridge supported by the wisdom tooth and the first premolar? Or I have heard that bridges exist that can be supported by only one abutment tooth. I would also like to know whether I can have replacement teeth while waiting for the implants.
Please write the price in both cases (implant – final restoration and bridge).
Thank you!
Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:
Dear Sir/Madam!
A bridge can be made if the wisdom tooth has erupted enough to provide good bridge stability. Price: EUR 210 (metal-ceramic crown) X 4 = EUR 840. A bridge of such length certainly requires at least two abutment teeth and not one. Implants are of course a better solution because the abutment teeth do not have to be prepared and overloaded. Price: EUR 750 (implant) X 2 + EUR 420 (crown on implant) X 2 = EUR 2340. While waiting for the final restoration, you can wear a temporary replacement. The prices include all procedures and materials up to the final restoration.
Have a nice day!
