Visitor asks:

Hello, I am 23 years old and recently overcame my fear of dentists :)) My teeth are otherwise healthy and apart from replacing fillings there is nothing special. However, I have a problem with my upper front teeth because I have a gap and crooked teeth. The dentist advised braces, but I am leaning more toward some aest

Dear Sir/Madam! The orthodontist suggested the best and least aggressive treatment. There is certainly also the possibility of placing dental veneers. The teeth must be relatively intact (not damaged or filled). In that case it is necessary to intervene in the hard dental tissues

Visitor asks:

Hello! In the upper jaw on the right side I have a partial denture attached to a crowned tooth 2. I would like to know how many implants I would need to replace the missing teeth on the right side. The palatal part of the partial denture bothers me very much, so I would really like to have such a procedure. I wish you

Dear Sir/Madam! I assume that all the teeth in the upper right are missing except for the two incisors. If bone density is good and the anatomical conditions for implant placement are favourable, the status could be completed with three implants and a fixed construction. Have a n

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam! A few days ago I lost a filling and part of the tooth also chipped off. The tooth does not hurt. I would like to know approximately how much the repair should cost. Thank you very much!

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! In the best case, the tooth only needs to be restored with a new filling; the price is from 40 to 65 EUR (depending on the extent of the defect and the choice of material). If the fracture was extensive and a larger part of the hard dental tissues is missing, it i

Visitor asks:

Good day. I would like to know how much I would have to pay you for 8 implants... if you can tell me the final price for everything so that it is all taken care of.

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 price of one implant is EUR 750 (EUR 1,000 if artificial bone material needs to be added). The price of the prosthetic restoration supported by the implants depends on its type. Based on the number of implants, I assume that the construction will be fixed. The

Visitor asks:

Hello. I would like to ask whether occasional pain slightly below the temples and pressure in the ears can be caused by the teeth. The question refers to question 169. I am asking about tooth 5 or 6. Thank you.

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 sensations you describe could be related to disorders of the temporomandibular joint. These can also be indirectly related to the teeth; new prosthetic restorations, tooth grinding, injuries... Unilateral dental pain can cause chewing function to shift to the

Visitor asks:

Hello. I would like to know whether killing the nerve of a tooth also eliminates a granuloma visible on the X-ray. Since the pain disappears, does the granuloma remain as well, or is it cleaned out with the root canal files? Thank you.

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! Destroying the nerve does not eliminate the granuloma. Proper root canal treatment is required; disinfection of the root canal and an adequate filling are prerequisites for eliminating the granuloma. Pain and the presence of a granuloma do not have much in common,

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam, I have very bad teeth and extractions would be necessary. In the upper jaw I have a bridge in two parts. On the left side all the teeth have already broken off, so the bridge is held by only one tooth; on the right side the bridge is also already moving and the teeth are visible. I visited one dentist i

Visitor asks:

Hello, I have had a metal post and a porcelain crown on my upper central incisor for about 10 years. Over the past year, the tooth has shifted by 2–3 mm. My dentist says I have periodontal disease and that the tooth will have to be extracted and replaced with an implant. I would like to know the price of the implant +

Dear Simona! The price of an implant is EUR 750 (EUR 1,000 if artificial bone material needs to be added) + an implant-supported dental crown EUR 420 = EUR 1,170, or EUR 1,420 in the case of bone augmentation. The price includes all procedures from the examination to the final so
