yikes, that means, i believe, he'll need a bridge and thus work on the two anchor teeth too. he'll get a temp today after a few hours of work and hopefully a 3d image scan. then a few weeks later perfect bridge is installed. had to replace my 3 tooth bridge last year with a 4 tooth one. fun.
He can maybe get implants in the offseason. Our insurance should pay, since it happened in the line of duty.
from all the family members i've known that have had implants, none like them. my dentist said they are a last resort and something to stay away from if possible. involves drilling down into your jawbone to set. i think three or more visits. much easier to have a bridge. his teeth already look normal i'm sure tonight with the temp and most likely his new bridge will get the fast track and will be replaced in a week and he'll never think about it again hopefully. implants involve way more risk of the body not liking the material and takes more visits and pain. bridge just easier, less pain and safer, imho. any here have implants and disagree?
I just had to have a cracked tooth extracted. My insurance wouldnt pay for an ìmplant so went with a bridge.
