Hello! My question mainly concerns the placement of posts as a tooth replacement. Five months ago, after lengthy treatment of a tooth and the pulp, I had a post placed in the gum and an artificial tooth fitted over it. After a few days, however, I developed health problems in the form of dizziness that have not stopped

Dear Sir/Madam! I assume you are referring to the placement of dental implants in the jawbone. Implants are made of titanium and cannot cause an allergy. I believe the problems you describe are not directly related to the procedure. Have a nice day!

Dear Sir/Madam, in my upper jaw, teeth 2 and 3 are smaller than the other teeth, and it looks as if I am missing teeth. I would like to know what the price would be if I replaced these two teeth with artificial ones. Thank you for your answer Kind regards Janez

I need the crowns on 6 front teeth replaced (ceramic), and on both sides a denture would probably be needed because I am missing teeth.

Hello, On Wednesday, 22 January, I had my lower left wisdom tooth removed.

Visitor asks:

Yesterday I received an invitation from your dental assistant to come in for a check-up of the implant (probably its integration with the jawbone), which can only be seen on an X-ray. In this context, I would like to know how the frequency of X-rays (especially dental X-rays, because part of the head is also imaged) ca
