Question
hi i am male 28 and my eye tooth never came down properly (baby tooth still there) the tooth is crooked and protruding out of gum.i would prefer to not get braces. Would it be possible to get it removed and insert a denture or implant. if i can how long would treatment take and at what cost?
                                regards Paul

Answer
First you have to determine if the adult canine is pesent and impacted in some way that would preclude placingan implant.If it's missing completely an implant would be the restoration of choice.Sorry can't say what the fees are where you hail from.Could take as litleas 8 months to complete if everything is in order.
