Asked By:gay lee in Roslyn Heights, NY

I have a total bridge on the bottom of my mouth over implants. It was cemented over the implants. The entire bridge is loose and lifting up except for one tooth. The dentist hasn't been able to get that one tooth to release the bridge. It is very uncomfortable. I can't chew because it moves all over and everything I eat gets stuck under it. What can be done to remove it so it can be recemented?
