As you can see, tooth #7 has resorption and is not savable; the prosthodontist proposes to extract, bone graph, implant and temporary crown, all in one sitting.
This condition has been going on for two years. I want to postpone surgery another month or two; the doctor, however says waiting even that short period of time may endanger the surrounding teeth. I can’t imagine since it’s been a slow progression that another month or two would make a difference, but hey, what do I know? please advise , empathize, any feedback is welcome. That’s why I joined today this portal. This is my first posting.
