goldbanjo: Maybe some of you remember that I had tooth #11 removed in January. I
also had a bone graft. I have been putting off getting the implant
done out of fear of pain. I am scared of having this done awake, the
thought of them drilling into my bone,... |

Jim C: Since I had #3 extracted in Feb 09 I have noticed a slight widening of
the gap between #4 and 5. I am scheduled to have an implant placed in
the next few days.
Should that stop this or will that no happen until the crown is placed? |

James Goforth: There is a site in which they talk about injecting substances known as
Radiesse and Sculptura, for a non-surgical alternative to facial

Rich: Greetings,
Earlier this week I finally was ready to have crowns/abutments placed on
implants for #30 & 31. As you know, healing caps were removed, abutments

the abutments... |

Rich: Greetings,
I am at the end point of the surgical placement of two implants. Naturally,
insurance did not cover the cost. An abutment tooth under a 20+ year old
bridge had developed decay below the gum line. The periodontist stated that

melmontemm@yahoo.com: Implant with infection healed
I feel the need to post this simply because I think the community can

patbarb11@gmail.com: Hi, my healing cap has come off a couple of times (lower left 2nd
molar) in the last few months and now it's happened again. I won't be

I've gone ahead and cleaned out the inside of the... |

GovtLawyer@aol.com: I'm 58 years old, and until this afternoon I still had one of my baby
teeth. On the lower jaw, third tooth from the back, sat this baby
tooth, snuggled between two larger, taller adult teeth. And there it
sat, for most of my life. A few months... |

The Webby: I've taken some clips/quoted materials from the NIDCR's TMJ Implant

Walter R.: I have 9 implants, using titanium abutments.
Somewhere, I read that implants should never be cleaned/scaled with steel
tools, but only with plastic tools.
Is this correct and what is the reason? What happens if steel probes are
used?

Robert: This question may have been answered many times before, but how do you stop
bacteria from entering directly into the bone at the site of entry of the

teeth, but the... |

I met with two oral surgeons recently to discuss implants. One
