Dear Dr Rotar,
I would like to know what the price of a bridge would be and how long it would take to make it. My situation is as follows: on the lower left I have two implants (ANCHYLOS system) in positions 3 and 7. The implants were placed in Ljubljana by Dr Gorenc. I now need a three-tooth bridge because the wisdom tooth is positioned slightly further back and there is room for only three teeth. I would like the bridge to be made from the highest-quality ceramic with a zirconia framework.
Thank you in advance and kind regards,
Boris

Dear Sir/Madam! The price of the restoration you are asking about: - EUR 350 (pontic) - EUR 700 (crown on implant). If I have understood correctly, you need a total of three crowns: two on implants and one intermediate pontic. In this case the total price is: EUR 700 X 2 + EUR 35
Dear Sir/Madam!
The price of the restoration you are asking about: - EUR 350 (pontic) - EUR 700 (crown on implant). If I have understood correctly, you need a total of three crowns: two on implants and one intermediate pontic. In this case the total price is: EUR 700 X 2 + EUR 350 = EUR 1750. The stated prices apply to ceramic crowns on a zirconia framework, including a zirconia abutment (supporting part). The price includes all materials and procedures from the first visit to the final result. The described crowns are the most aesthetic on the market. The restorations carry a five-year warranty. We usually need three visits for fabrication, taking place over approximately ten to fourteen days. For additional information you can call 040 294488.

Hello,
three years ago the dentist removed the nerves (4) from my lower first molar. Since then the pain has accompanied me in intervals; it hurts and then stops. I have noticed that it starts if I am exposed to cold, for example skiing, and more often in winter than in summer. My whole lower jaw hurts, sometimes together with my head. The pain is constant, not throbbing, and it does not hurt on touch or biting. It hurts more lower down, in the jaw, below the teeth. A month ago, at my request, the dentist reopened and closed the tooth, but the pain still does not stop. He says that everything is fine with the non-vital tooth, as well as with all the other teeth according to the X-ray. I am now going to have a wisdom tooth removed that is growing horizontally into the other teeth. At the examination, however, the surgeon told me that the pain is definitely not caused by the wisdom tooth.
I am now very worried.
I would like to know your opinion.
Thank you very much and kind regards,
Alja

Hello! I am a 20-year-old woman and I have a major phobia of dentists because of bad experiences. I would just like to know what is the lowest price at which you could remove my caries as quickly as possible. Thank you in advance for your answer. I come from the Pomurje region; would that be an obstacle? Kind regards.

I have a seven-year-old daughter whose upper permanent central incisor broke off. Because of pain from another tooth that was treated, she has developed an extreme fear. The tooth was built up after numerous visits to the dentist, with us spending the whole morning there (several times in vain). Now, after two months, that part has fallen off again and we are back at the beginning. At first she is still brave, but as soon as the dentist picks up an instrument, everything ends. She starts pushing everything away with her hands. Please tell me what I should do, because I no longer know what else we can do.

Dear Sir/Madam!
It is very difficult to advise without an examination or at least a conversation. Experience shows that in the situations you describe, the most difficult part of the task is done by the parents, through preparation and, above all, firmness without giving in. Treatment should be presented as a reward and as a fact of life (like eating every day, sleeping, watching television...). Bribery does not pay off. An interesting fact is that many problems in the dental practice are most often caused by children who have not yet had any dental experience at all, so we may ask who consciously or subconsciously instilled fear or a negative attitude toward the treatment itself. I can help you more if you make an appointment for an examination.

Hello!
I have the following problem: on the lower left I am missing the second premolar and first molar, while on the lower right I am missing only the first molar. Would it be possible to make bridges instead of implants? I am a student and the price of implants is currently too high for my budget... Are such bridges at least partially covered by insurance? What would the price be?
I have one more question: a little less than a month ago my dentist removed the nerve from a lateral incisor because of inflammation. He placed temporary medication. After three weeks, when I was supposed to have the medication removed, I became ill, so the appointment was postponed by two weeks. I now notice that the tooth has turned bluish... What can you advise me in this case?
Thank you very much for your sincere answers and for helping us when we need it!

Dear Sir/Madam!
Based on what you have written, I believe you need two bridges. On the left side, the first premolar and second molar would be used as abutment teeth, while on the right side the second premolar and second molar would be used. In total, seven teeth would therefore need to be made. The price depends on the material used by the technician: - EUR 210 (metal-ceramic crown or pontic) X 7 = EUR 1,470 or - EUR 350 (all-ceramic crown on Zircon) X 7 = EUR 2,450. If you want the insurance company to partially cover the service, you must contact your personal dentist, who, after the waiting period for prosthetic services has elapsed, could charge this to the insurance company. In your case, you fully pay for the missing pontics yourself if the proposal is approved. For comparison, I am also giving you the price of treatment with dental implants, as this is much more suitable for the status described and for your age, since the abutment teeth do not need to be ground down and irreversibly damaged: - EUR 750 (implant) X 2 + EUR 420 (crown on implant) X 2 = EUR 2,340.

Hello,
Last Tuesday my upper wisdom tooth was surgically removed. After a few days I developed a viral infection (runny nose, cough without fever). This Tuesday, after one week, the stitches were removed, but the surgeon said that the wound was not healing properly and was inflamed, so they are now treating it with a laser. I would like to know whether the slow healing could be a consequence of the viral infection and lowered resistance.
Thank you very much for your answer.
Kind regards

Bacteria can therefore colonise the affected area more easily and cause infection of the area, which is the most common postoperative complication in procedures of this type.
I have a crown on the upper left lateral incisor. Recently I also had pain in the root of this tooth, so root surgery was performed, but apparently unsuccessfully. At the last postoperative X-ray my dentist told me that the root is fractured and must be removed/extracted. He therefore suggested an implant or a bridge.

Dear Sir/Madam!
Treatment with a dental implant is certainly more appropriate, in keeping with modern practice, and can no longer really be compared with a classic bridge. If the gap is restored with a bridge, at least one neighbouring tooth must be ground down (irreversibly damaged), which is not necessary with an implant. Prices: - EUR 750 (implant) + EUR 420 (crown on implant) = EUR 1170. - EUR 210 (crown on implant) X 3 = EUR 630.
Dear Sir/Madam, I have problems with my central and lateral incisors. About 6 months ago the teeth were newly covered with porcelain crowns, but somehow they did not “settle” properly, I cannot bite correctly, and aesthetically the result is not quite right either. What can be done? Thank you for your answer.
