Hello, Just under a month ago I had endodontic treatment of my upper first premolar. The endodontist treated the canals using an operating microscope and rotary instruments. After the first treatment session, he placed medication in the tooth, and for 3 days I had very severe pain. At the second visit he enlarged the c

Visitor asks:

Dear Dr Rotar, a piece of the crown of my upper first molar chipped off on the outer side. It does not hurt, the filling is still in place, and I pressed the broken piece (two cusps joined together, broken halfway toward the gum margin) back into its original position. Can the piece of tooth be bonded back? Or does tha

Visitor asks:

Hello! I have a question. A small part of a tooth root is visible at my upper gum, and I would like to know how or with what it could be covered, if that is possible at all. It is true that I use snus (fugo), and I am already a little worried about this tooth. I would really like to know whether there is any cream, sol

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

Dear Sir/Madam! The gum around the tooth root is inflamed because of chronic irritation from sharp edges and plaque accumulating at that site. The root needs to be removed or, if it is still possible, restored with a crown and post. The best and only measure against gingival infl

Hello! I have a diastema between my upper central incisors, and my lateral incisors have been built up. I would like to know whether fixed braces are possible if the teeth have been built up.

Visitor asks:

I would like to know how much it costs to replace one tooth. I am missing a first molar. Do two additional teeth have to be ground down, or can an artificial root be made? I am interested in both options.

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

Dear Sir/Madam! A missing first molar can be replaced in two ways: -a conventional bridge can be made, which requires grinding the two adjacent teeth into the shape of truncated cones and making three crowns: two abutment crowns and one pontic. Price: 210 Eur (metal-ceramic crown

Visitor asks:

Hello, I am 27 years old and my teeth are in terrible condition. I would like to know whether I could have all my teeth replaced and how much that would cost.
