Good afternoon Back from the VA dentist.
They recommend dental implant.
Not if I want it but will see.It is only a couple implant.
The set up an appt. .for me to see the Dr.there.
I was having a little discomfort there.
Will see them next month.
Anyone share their experience if they had implant?
Love to hear it.
The photo is mine.

I guess it depends where it is. If it was at the front I definitely would

@amadeo It is good that it is at the back. Dentistry is so expensive sometimes treatments are just making dentists richer and you poorer! Good luck and I hope you are pain free soon!

I have not had one and do not want one. I do not like the idea of the screw implant. Happy March Fredo. Though I do have to have a tooth removed, I will not replace it with an implant.

I have not had any but it seems like a good solution to me and more like your own teeth. I don't imagine it is much worse than a root canal and a lot of people do it. They did talk to my husband about it and we may go that way in the future.

I have a very messed up mouth but right now I get by without seeing a dentist. Eventually, I will have to. I have read about implants and do not know if I would want them but apparently, they say they are not as expensive as people think.

Tony has three. They go in and cut the gum, drill the bone and install posts, sew you up and you wait several months, next they put the teeth on top. Its not an easy operation, Tony was in severe pain. I took him for all of this way back then, since we both used the same dental school.

I shudder at the thought of dental implant. Must hurt a lot.
