Implant or Maryland Bridge

[Fairylou]

Hello, I am ever so grateful for any advice you can give me. I have got a post crown that is failing and likely to come out incredibly soon. There is very little route that will enable me to have a crown redone again and so we are looking at either a single tooth denture which I do not want. Or a Maryland Bridge or an implant. I am hugely anxious at the thought of the implant procedures. But I am also worried that a bridge won’t last very long.
I am really not sure what the best course of action is. If it helps the crown is a premolar.
On the same side, I also have a wisdom tooth coming through that is growing into the tooth in front and killing the root of that. I have been advised that I will have to have that molar taken out to enable the wisdom tooth to hopefully be saved. That is not likely to happen for another six months or so as I am on an NHS waiting list.
However, I could have the implant or bridge done privately sooner
Am extremely stressed about the whole thing.
Any advice or help gratefully received
Thanks

Can't really advise Maryland/Implant without actually seeing you, the Maryland will last forever if your circumstances suit it, depends on your bite and the condition of the supporting tooth. Obviously it's non-surgical and if you managed to knock it out then it's normally simple to stick back on again
