Thank you so much Bryanna. I am not clear of the bridge part so I will explain it a little better. Teeth 3 and 4 have crowns but they are attached. I can see my teeth below the crowns due to gum recession over the years. So my question is, does the dentist pull on the crowns, or does he grasp the little bit of tooth he sees above? I imagine if he pulls the crowns, the teeth will come out because they are so firmly attached by the glue. Or, does he have to carve the crowns off first?

I had 2 crowned teeth removed a long time ago and they just pulled them, no drilling off the crown but because these two are attached, can he pull them off together?

One more question, I have bad veins due to some treatments I have had...can it ever happen that they can find the vein, start the sedation and the vein collapses and the patient wakes up? I am so scared of this!

I do have a great oral surgeon and even though I am going to my dentist first to evaluate, I surely would only go to the surgeon for this (dentist doesn't do it anyway, except maybe simple extractions). Thanks again!
