Visitor asks:

I would like to know whether you provide services with a referral and, if the answer is yes, what the waiting time is (my 9-year-old son has been referred for extraction of tooth 16 with urgency level "routine", gangrene of 16). Thank you for your answer and kind regards, Mojca

Visitor asks:

Hello. I am 40 years old. I am missing both upper central incisors and currently have them replaced with a temporary partial denture, which I have had for a very long time. I am already used to it and it does not bother me when wearing it, but because it is worn out it needs to be replaced. My dentist suggested a four-

Dear Sir/Madam! I suggest placing two implants. This procedure avoids preparation and loading of the lateral incisors, let alone the canines. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam! In the upper jaw I have a cast partial denture that is attached to two teeth on the left and three on the right. I am mainly missing the front teeth (both central incisors and both lateral incisors). Now the teeth on the left (canine and first premolar) that support the partial denture have become very

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! If I understand correctly, you intend to have all the teeth removed, so you will need a complete denture. The denture can be conventional with the palate covered, or a better option without a palatal plate and retained by four implants. If the three teeth on the r

Hello! I am asking on behalf of my mother. She is 76 years old and has not been to a dentist for many years, so she does not have her own dentist either. She still has four teeth in the upper front. On the upper left she had a bridge that fell off; the tooth underneath is literally no longer there, and I do not know wh

Dear Sir/Madam! If I understand the question correctly, the lady would need an upper complete denture. The price is 700 Eur. We need four visits to make it, which means just under three weeks. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Hello Unfortunately, I will have to have an implant. I would like to know what the difference is between having artificial bone or not. I already have 28 ceramic crowns, and now it is time for an implant as well. Can one implant support 2 crowns? And how much does it cost? Thank you Bojan

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! One implant can support two crowns. The price of an implant is 750 Eur. If bone augmentation is required, the price is 150 Eur higher. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Hello, a year ago I received an upper bridge. I have now changed dentists, and because my gums were inflamed I was given an antibiotic. The teeth under the bridge need root canal treatment, but now pus has accumulated in my gum. The dentist made an incision to let the pus drain, and for five days I have been going back

Dear Sir/Madam! Changing the strip alone will only reduce the acute symptoms, which most often happens already after the first visit. Root canal treatment or extraction of the tooth is necessary, as you have already established yourself. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Dear Doctor! I am about to undergo a thorough dental reconstruction. I need a sinus floor lift because 2 implants are to be placed. I would like to know what this operation is like, how serious it is, how long it takes and whether complications are possible. Do you perform both procedures at the same time in your clini

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! It is difficult to answer your question without an X-ray. Whenever possible, we combine sinus floor elevation with implant placement. If there is too little bone to achieve basic primary stability of the implants, the procedures must be performed six months apart.

Visitor asks:

Dear Mr Rotar and colleagues, my questions concern both implantology and prosthetics. I would need a dental crown on tooth number 16 (upper right first molar). In addition, I would need a new tooth in the lower left (first or second molar). I realize that it is difficult to give precise answers by e-mail, but I would b

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 crown on tooth 16 can be made relatively quickly: two visits approximately one week apart. The price of the service is 210 Eur if you choose a porcelain-fused-to-metal construction, or 350 Eur for an all-ceramic construction. The missing tooth is best replaced w

Visitor asks:

Hello! I have a problem with a gap between my incisors and it bothers me a lot. I would like to know what you recommend and what would be most suitable for closing the gap... I am also interested in the price because I would like to get through it as cheaply as possible. Thank you, kind regards.

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 problem can be corrected in three ways; -adding to and reshaping the crowns with composite material (white filling). The procedure is quick, simple and reversible. Price: 65 Eur X 2 = 130 Eur. -making aesthetic veneers. The procedure requires minimal preparati
