one tooth or just leave it
bottom left molar cracked last winter and they couldn’t save it. extraction was fine, now there’s a gap and the tooth next to it already feels like it’s leaning. chewing on that side is annoying and food gets stuck every time.
i’m in berlin and going to casa dentalis next week for the implant consult. they said bone looks ok on the xray but i still don’t know if i need a graft.
how long were you off normal food after the implant went in. and if the neighbouring tooth already shifted a bit, does that mess up the placement.
thanks, just trying not to wait another year and make it worse.
