Missing Teeth
QuestionI had a front tooth removed 2 weeks ago and was given a denture plate but I have had dreadful problems with retching. I don't feel sick and can keep the plate in from 8.00 - 4.00 but after this I immediately begin to 'Gag'. My NHS dentist says I can't have a bridge because one of the supporting teeth is not strong enough. I cannot live my professional life like this. The doctor has prescribed ciclizine, but I can't see that this will work. In fact neither can she. What are my options? I am willing to go privately.
Answer
Some bridges can be successful only fixed at one end. Adhesive or crown retained cantilevered. Cost £700 to £1000. Or remake denture to a different design. Or a dental implant which avoids the adjacent teeth and replaces the missing root.
