Hi! As suggested by others, you may be able to correct the crooked front tooth quickly with veneer(s) but this treatment requires removal of tooth structure which is irreversible and thus more aggressive than orthodontia (Invisalign) which would move your existing tooth into the right position without requiring any drilling. Good luck!
Gold crowns generally have excellent fit and longterm service, but are not very aesthetic. Newer materials now available for crowns are all ceramic, white and highly aesthetic. In order to have your crown made to look like a tooth, the good crown would need to be removed and replaced with an all ceramic crown. The cost for this treatment generly varies depending on the location of your dentist and his/her skill level.
Hi! So depending on your particular set of circumstances, you may have other temporary options available to you. With more information about your case, I could give you a better answer. But just some ideas, you could ask to see if your a candidate for an Essex appliance, but keep in mind while it fits better than a flipper it still comes in and out. An even better option may be a CADpro Temp, designed to temporarily bond to adjacent teeth (if you have any present), which won't come in and out. Good luck!
Hi! As mentioned in the previous post, veneers shouldn't just fall off and if they do, the reason for the failure needs to be determined in order to know how to proceed with fixing the situation. It could be that improper bonding technique was used (too much moisture, failure to properly prepare/silanate the unit), and in such a case you may be able to recement the same veneer. It could also be that the tooth has more dentin exposed which affects bonding, which may mean that tooth may be better off with a crown. Or it could be your occlusion (ie. your "bite") that needs to be adjusted. So there's no simple answer, but definitely return to your doctor and s/he should be able to fix your gorgeous new smile. Good luck!
It sounds as if the flipper you are wearing for cosmetic purposes is traumatizing the supporting gum tissue. I would recommend returning to your dentist to have the site evaluated and relieve the flipper if it is in fact applying to much pressure to the implant site. If this is he case and it is left untreated, it could adversely affect the healing of the implant. You could also inquire about other temporary options like an Essex appliance which tend to be more comfortable to wear while the implant is healing. Good luck!
