I lived with the pain. If I accidentally chewed on that side I was quickly reminded not to do so! Then, the tooth finally broke completely in half and there was nothing to do but get it pulled. I went to an oral surgeon I know and he pulled the tooth and I asked about a <a class="link link--external" href="https://sagedentalnj.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">dental implant dentist</a> instead of the usual bridge. He told me to wait till my mouth healed and come back. When I came back, he took an impression. Then he put a screw in the bone of my upper jaw and then put a temporary tooth. I came back in a few days and he put in the permanent tooth. I have been very happy. I have not had a single problem, nor have I had the same issues people with partials and bridges have. I can chew, eat anything, and basically treat it like a real tooth. Over time, the bone grows around the screw and makes it like a real tooth. Also, with implants you do not have the bone loss as you do with false teeth. When I first got it, there was a little time of getting used to it and it would get sore if I ate too much with it. I just treated it with some gel he gave me and salt water. Now, I have no issues at all. Anyone who is missing teeth, I highly recommend getting this done.</blockquote><br> Cancel
