Hi Kat,

You're welcome! Thanks for sharing your dental story with us!

Yes, it is definitely worth discussing the replacement of your lower molar. An implant may be a good option there if the adjacent teeth have not "tilted" in towards the open space AND if the bone level and diameter of the space are adequate to place an implant.

Please keep us posted .....

When I review the best way forward with my dentist, is it worth asking whether an implant is still an option for the molar I lost just over three years ago. This is in the lower jaw, directly below the upper molar I'm currently having a problem with.

Also can implants for upper first molars be more difficult to obtain success with?

My other teeth, particularly the front ones are nice and I want to try and not cause any trauma elsewhere.

Thank you

Kat
