Bridge Ask The Dentist Corinne Scalzitti

Question:
My bridge was put in a few months back and it has fallen out of my mouth 3 times already. This last time I ended up with pain.

So know I have a absess and I need a root canal on the two teeth that was supporting the bridge for my missing tooth. Could that have something to do with the bridge falling out 3 times? ... Visitor from MO

Answer:
You are having an awful lot of problems for a new bridge.

I would suggest that you consult with another dentist to let him/her see what is happening, why, and what to do about it.

I would do this before having the root canals done.
