I went to a second opinion and they still haven’t fixed my loose bridge (Photo)

Question

I have photo from a bridge replacement they would not fix it and said I needed another grand for cleaning instead. I went to another so called dentist and they said the same. I think I should go to a doctor not a dentist. There is something wrong and these dentist are being evasive and not addressing my concerns. Do I get a dr opinion or what? They replaced it in late February and it’s still loose with openings. What can I do?

Miller Vieira Paula, DDS · Answer

I'm sorry to hear about your experience and the ongoing issues with your bridge. Feeling frustrated when concerns aren’t fully addressed is understandable, especially with something as important as your dental health.
Your photos are blurry, and I wasn’t able to evaluate them but given the situation, here’s what I recommend:
1. Thorough Evaluation: You may benefit from a comprehensive assessment to determine why the bridge remains loose. There can be several reasons for this, from underlying structural issues to the type of materials used.
2. Specialized Consultation: A visit to a prosthodontist, a dentist specializing in restorations and bridgework, could provide insights. They have advanced training in handling complex cases like this.
3. Medical Opinion: While a dental specialist is usually the best resource for bridge concerns, consulting an oral and maxillofacial specialist may also be beneficial if you suspect a medical issue beyond dentistry.
Best regards,Dr. Miller Vieira Paula.
