tooth implant loose

I had a bad implant on tooth #10 which was put in on April 14, 2008. There is no bone cover the outer side of the implant. Also, the implant was placed in a position with close to #9. the implant was taken out on Aug. 14, 2008 by another doctor. She used BMP-2 which cause big swelling over 2-3 weeks. and light swelling afterwards. On Aug. 30. I noticed my #9 become loose and very sensitive to percussion. On that day, my gum on #9 and #10 was seriously inflamed.

I don't know if my first message went through, would a tooth implant be ok? I'm trying to find a dentist office who will let me make weekly payments, I've had no luck finding any dental office that will let me do that type of payment plan. I was hoping maybe you would know of a few places. Thank You!

I had a surgery on 8/14 on tooth #10 to remove an implant. the implant was very very close to my tooth #9. because the suture not removed, my gum got some infection on tooth #10. That infection spread to #9. yesterday, I suddenly found that my tooth#9 become loose, and when I gently tap the surface of my tooth, the whole tooth feel very sensitive. what happen? any suggestion? Am I at the risk loss a healthy tooth? tooth#9 is very healthy. thanks.

I don't think you can "redo" the inside of that crown to fit an abutment. Each crown is custom made to fit either the post from a natural tooth, or the abutment part of the implant. The implant and abutment are two separate pieces. I don't think what you are proposing is possible. You would need an new implant bridge. The only other thing would be to remove the end teeth on your bridge and have new ones fitted to the remaining bridge.

If root resorption tooth is asymptomatic , you don,t need to worry. No one can tell when the tooth will come out. Implant is a highly predictable and viable option for replacing missing tooth.once it is inserted and restored , it can service decades, no need to remove healthy implant.

Abutment screw loose and implant loose is difficult to differentiate. The only way is to tighten up abutment screw and check mobility. However, if implant is loose, x-Ray can show bone destruction.seeing a dentist is advised.

That way, the other adjacent tooth is untouched. The tooth with the loose crown sounds like it is non-restorable (non-salvageable).

I had a surgery on 8/14 on tooth #10 to remove an implant. the implant was very very close to my tooth #9. because the suture not removed, my gum got some infection or inflamation on tooth #10. That infection spread to #9. yesterday, I suddenly found that my tooth#9 become loose, and when I gently tap the surface of my tooth, the whole tooth feel very sensitive. I saw my dentist on Tue, she is a periodontist but just graduated from school not long ago.

The dentist pulled the loose baby tooth,sculpted the gum and inserted a dental implant. She had no facial swelling, but her gum swelled around the teeth on either side of the implanted tooth. Salt water brought the swelling down.2wks.later sucures are removed.7 days later she feels a lump high above gum above implant,yellow the size of a pea. dentist puts her on antibiotics and we go to his office. He drains the pus and injects more antibiotics into the site.

he told me that he cant put a crown and an implant must be done...he put a composite instead of the tooth and asked me to come for an implant but the dental surgeon who will work with him told me to make a panoramic and a periapical before taking the decision of the implant it showed that my roots are good and i dont feel any pain but it doesnt show the crack...i saw the crack in the mirror i know it is there but no one can now how deep is it...till now i dont feel any pain...

Another 5 months with a composite as tooth was lower front. Then implant.. Pain started immediately in neighboring tooth as it was placed too close. Pain increased, then all of a sudden other tooth on other side, which had never had anything done to it started crying out with pain. Dentists were baffled. I told them it was galvanic currents from titanium. They insisted that I was wrong, did 2 unnecessary root canals on neighboring teeth. Pain got WORSE after...

Hello, I went to my Dentist last week due to extreme foul odor coming from right upper crown (which is approx. 7 years old). He removed it (the odor was horrific). He cleaned the crown & area and cemented it back on. He did state the tooth stump appeared slightly loose. I can taste & smell the poo-like odor constantl, I am beside my self about this. Now, a week later I am experiencing pain under that crown. Could it be that the stump of the existing tooth has gone bad ?

It has appeared to have been loose and tonight she thought she was pulling her tooth and just the stainless steel cap was pulled off. The small amount of tooth underneath is still inplace and does not appear to be loose even though she has pulled the ones corresponding to it on the opposite side. There is no pain. Will it eventually loosen up and be pulled or is this a trip to the dentist? She cannot get a good grip on it since it is so small. Thank you for taking the time to answer.

They can't do a RC on tooth 14. It's loose and needs to be extracted, so needs an implant or bridge but I'm not sure if there's enough bone for an implant. I'm guessing that an implant PLUS a bone graft is even MORE expensive than just an implant right? Then I have the cost of extraction, two crowns, a buildup and who knows what else. I'm not sure what all this could come up to. My insurance won't pay for implants.

It is only a bit of plastic between two teeth. It is also loose and everytime I eat it feels loose. It is my front tooth. When I go to the dentist he says don't put pressure on it. I have to eat with my teeth. It is very uncomfortable. I want to change my dentist but I don't know what to do. Any suggestions will be welcome. Can you help?

So this adding and subtracting of bone can make a tooth loose and cause a bit of an inflammation or irritaion on the ligament around the tooth. If it is very sensitive, then you may have another issue.

If there is inadequate amount of tooth structure remaining, then an implant would be a great choice. There might even be decay on your teeth due to leakage of bacteria under your loose crown. However, before you do anything, I would look into the functional aspect of your mouth and jaw. Because if you even get an implant and you have the same functional problem (if there is one) then you will do the same damage to the implant as well. So understanding the cause of the problem is the key.

I have just had #3 molar, upper right extracted. Plan was an implant, but cannot afford that or bridge at $4K. Want to hear about chances to adapt to the missing tooth. No nonsense opinions on risks and (financial rewards) of avoiding implant or bridge....just get by (age 64) with gap in back upper teeth. Need cheerleaders or bottom line risks asociated with "gumming it'!!

He performed a full oral exam, checked me for oral cancer of which im clear, probed me, took more xrays as well as a panaromic xray and his suggestion is to extract teeth 15, 16, 17, 18 and 19, He wants to place an implant where tooth 19 is now. my question is, should I do this or are the full upper dentures and lower partial the better route to take?

I was involved in a bus accident with resulted in my tooth being knocked loose. I found my tooth on the floor on the bus (in the side crevice) about 2 feet from where a mother and son were bleeding. About 2 hours later the tooth was re implanted into my mouth. Would I be at risk for HIV if blood from someone get on the tooth and I didn't realise?

I don't know percentages. Your dentist or periodontist should know. If the xray shows that the bone is still all the way around the tooth (think of it like grasping a big tooth root in your fist) and it isn't loose, you should be able to at least postpone the demise of that tooth with proper treatment and care. I've gained anywhere from a couple of years to more than ten years on compromised teeth that were caught and treated in time.

I have had a root canal in my pre-molar done 18 mnths ago, with lots of antibiotics and always small bleeds. Now has a dental crown on it and catches food (have mentioned to dentists who advised like I was small child that I need to floss - duh I do floss). Now this problem is worse and feels sore & red on my right side of lower gum. Tooth/crown is a bit loose, not having much of a leg to stand on. No-one listened to me so what now?

Hello! My first upper left molar (number 14) has to be extracted. I've not got my wisdom teeth so that means one molar will remain just behind it. I've got all the rest of my teeth intact fortunately! It's being extracted because it has cracked, virtually in two. I've got a temporary filling in it at the moment whilst I decide what to do, but the dentist says this is a short-term solution and it will keep getting infected.

Assuming loose teeth refering to increased tooth mobility, which is associated with periodontal disease, occlusal trauma, or bone pathology. Fosamax is not likely to cause tooth mobility.

In the week following the treatment my tooth was loose and somewhat painful, I sw my dentist about this, and I had an infection. I was put on some powerful meds and 2 weeks later my tooth had solidified and I saw my dentist once again, at which time he took xray and said everything look great. A while (i don't remember how long) after that I had a pimple form on the gum above that tooth.
