Hello. Because of persistent problems with a premolar (a non-vital tooth with suppuration), I would like to have it removed. I am interested in the waiting time, price and recovery time. As I am an athlete, I would also like to know how many days I would need to rest after the procedure before cycling. Thank you for yo

Visitor asks:

Hello! Last summer I suddenly developed unbearable pain in my lower right second molar. My dentist told me that I had deep caries and already then said it was uncertain whether everything would be all right with the tooth. She wanted to send me for an X-ray, but I told her I was pregnant. She nevertheless opened the to

Visitor asks:

Hello, in recent months I have been having problems with my teeth; within a few months I ended up with 3 non-vital teeth. Will this have an effect on my immune system? A tooth in which I have medication has no nerve, yet it still hurts. I do not understand why. I am missing both lower first molars; how can this be reso

Visitor asks:

Kind regards. Please give me an approximate price for an 11-tooth bridge. I already have 3 screws/implants placed in the lower jaw. I would like this to be covered through health insurance.

Dear Sir/Madam! The price of the procedure you are asking about is: -210 Eur (ceramic crown) X 11 = 2310 Eur If you have three implants in the jaw, the three crowns on them are more expensive. The price is then 630 Eur higher. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Hello, On Tuesday my dentist removed excess gum tissue over a wisdom tooth. He placed two yellow strips on the wound. Yesterday I managed to remove one, but the other remained inside. The strip is now white and disintegrating (if it is still the strip at all), and I cannot remove it because it is strongly "stuck" to th

Visitor asks:

Hello! For some time I have had a stinging, sensitive-type pain in my lower central incisor. My dentist sent me for an X-ray. The images showed that the incisor has moved away from the bone (the two teeth are spreading apart). None of my teeth are loose, but he told me that I am predisposed to periodontal disease. Can

Dear Sir/Madam! The simplest method is to build up and reshape the dental crown with composite materials. The procedure is quick and non-radical, but composites may become discoloured over time. Moving the teeth back to their original position with orthodontic treatment is a bett

Visitor asks:

Hello! I am a fourth-year dental medicine student. About a month ago my dentist replaced an occlusal amalgam filling on tooth 16 with an MOD composite restoration. Before the procedure I had no problems with the tooth, but since then I experience severe pain when biting, especially on harder food. The pain is sharp and

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Hello! I am 27 years old, I still have my whole future ahead of me, and my teeth are truly a disaster. Because of illness and poor genetic predisposition, I have lost almost all my teeth.
