    Hi,

    I am getting married in September and I am seeking a dentist who could offer a cheap fitting of implants or bridges.

    I have 2 teeth missing on the top row of teeth and I am dreading the photos from wedding if these are not filled in.I would even consider dentures just to be some bit comfortable smiling.

    Anyone with any info I would greatly appreciate.

    Thanks

    Cheap is relative, you can get a job done to fix them for your wedding but what about 6/12/18 months after?

    Where are you located?

    Implants or bridges are hell on earth to replace/repair when they fail. Cheap ones fail faster & a lot more unpredictably.
    Book in with your dentist for a full examination.
    Get all the teeth& gums healthy so that you don't risk pain/swelling/infection/breakage of any other teeth on the day or on honeymoon.
    Dentures may provide a good short-term solution in terms of cosmetics, generally they're reasonably priced & fairly non invasive & reversible in terms of a dental procedure.
    You can always plan ahead for a fixed solution once time& financial constraints improve.
