Bridge or Implants - recommendation

    Hi everyone

    I am missing two teeth - one on either side of top row. From a bit of research on the net it looks like my best options here are (1) bridge (probably Maryland?) or (2) implants. Dentures are also an option but I would prefer not to go down this route. Obviously this will require consultation with a professional to ascertain the best (if any) of the options for my own case, and cost will be a factor too.

    Can anyone advise:
    1. A good dentist for this kind of work that is based in Dublin, North Kildare or surrounding area? Needless to say, I don't have an unlimited amount of money for the work but if I'm doing it, I want to do it right and so all recommendations are much appreciated.
    2. Related to this, a <u>ballpark</u> for the kind of work we would be talking about here. Again, I know that every case is different (and probably every dentist) so I'm just looking for some rough ideas to give me a sense of it all.

    Thanks in advance,
    Dave

    Sorry all - with regard to the recommendations, could you please PM these to me as opposed to posting on the open forum here? That seems to be the practice, my mistake. All recommendations greatly appreciated by PM.

    Cheers,
    D

    I can't give a full recommendation because I haven't actually got the work done (waiting for baby teeth to give up the ghost before getting implants in) but I know that a lot of places do the free information evenings so might be an idea to take advantage of those to get an idea as to who you like best. My experience of ones before was x-rays taken and a full discussion. I didn't face any hard sell either - attended a couple for different places 4 years ago and still haven't had the work done as they don't see the point in pulling the teeth to start the process.

    I'm PM'd you re: the stuff removed from post.
