I am planning to replace a missing first lower molar with an implant. Could you tell if it is possible to have a metal free prosthetic tooth as I have problems with some metals particularly non-precious ones. Obviously the material would also have to be strong enough for that position in my mouth and also long lasting. Failing that is it possible to have an all gold tooth with an implant as I am fine with gold?

If you were going to have an implant on a lower first molar which dentist/surgeon would you most trust to do it? I would be prepared to travel anywhere in the UK. Best wishes, Katy

I'm busy deciding whether I need implants or not. I would like as much information as I can and have looked through your site and there doesn't seem to be a comprehensive list to follow to help me with my decision making process.

What is the longevity of a Maryland Bridge? I am considering this as an option rather than an implant (as it is doubtful I have enough bone mass for that). My dentist says "three months" and seems to be pushing for me to extend a bridge to incorporate 5/6 teeth. Please tell me how long Marylands last??

I have an upper bridge that broke in two. There are eight "teeth" - beginning with the front two (where there are roots) and then there is a span of 4 unsupported teeth and then it goes back to the last two molars (with roots). The bridge is only 6 years old. Is there any way to repair the bridge or do I have to buy another one?

My dentist is suggesting that I have a zirconia implant. I have enquired and googled but not many people seem to be using it. Every one talks about titanium and nothing else. I do not want any metal in my mouth. Can anyone help me to decide? I do want an implant but I do want one that will last as long as possible as I only want to spend my money once.

One of my teeth has to come out. Is an impression taken before extraction? Is the false tooth then made from that impression? Following the extraction, is the implant immediately implanted? Question put by Mr R J Stephenson of Cheshire
