Visitor asks:

Hello. In June I am having surgery on two teeth. I have been missing teeth 4 and 5 on the right side for some time, and the remaining roots still need to be extracted. The two neighbouring teeth are healthy, so I am considering implants. How long after the operation can implants be placed at both sites? I know prosthet

Kind regards! A month and a half ago I had two implants placed in my lower jaw (positions 6 and 7; the teeth had been extracted 20 years ago). After placement I had pain in my ear (an inflamed ear), throat and upper jaw. I did not receive antibiotics when the implants were placed. The pain then completely subsided, but

Visitor asks:

Hello! I am 18 years old and I am a saxophonist. Three days ago a filling fell out of my upper central incisor (it was approximately one third of the tooth diagonally), so the very next day I visited my dentist, who made a new filling. Since I have had this filling, when I play the saxophone the tooth hurts very badly

Dear Sir/Madam! Based on what you have written, I believe that root-canal treatment is necessary, which actually means removal of the pulp (nerve) and filling the canal with a synthetic material. The symptoms largely disappear immediately after the first phase (removal of the pul
