My #8 and #10 teeth were root canaled 40 years ago, and have been supporting a 3 tooth bridge (#9 was completely knocked out) ever since.
#8 and #10 is abscessed and needs removal. #9 socket has a cyst. Oral surgeon wants to remove 8 and 10 and at same time place autologous bone grafts there in preparation for implants. I'm not sure I want implants but don't want to rule them out. What's the record on this type of procedure? It sounds aggressive to me. But the oral surgeon says if I don't have the grafting done at time of removal, it is impossible to grow bone later. Is this true? #9 is a cavitation. Holistic dentist will remove. Oral surgeon says he will too, but it wasn't part of his quotation! What is the record on infection and failure of both titanium and zirconia implants? My holistic dentist recommends just using a partial, and possible later a bridge supported by #6 and #11. I am very grateful for this forum. |
