The reason why this blog is created is because Multiply.com is shutting down & all posts will be removed. Some posts here are back-dated from Aug 2004 - Aug 2012! I'm just doing a screen-shot & re-posting slowly cos it ain't easy to import every single photo. Therefore, only thumbnails are available for viewing, which also explains the white background & the little note at the end.

Tooth Implant Done!

Yeah! Finally done with my first tooth implant for the decayed tooth on the 4th tooth on top right! 

Extraction was done in Oct 12, I went for Phase 1 of the implant to fix the screw into my gum in Jan 13. Supposed to go back for Phase 2 to fix another screw in May 13 but only get it one last week. Today, Phase 3 of the implant - Crowning is finally done! The entire process took me about 9 months! 

Before the crowning - still missing the 4th tooth on top right


After crowning.

In case you can't see the difference, here's a comparison 

Closer look of the tooth implant! 

Seriously, I didn't check how much is being deducted from my Medisave (roughly about $3k according to the dentist), but I paid $300 for the crown

Now that the missing tooth on the right is fixed, its time to plan for the 2 broken teeth on the left. Dentist suggested doing root canal on the 4th top left tooth & implant for the 5th top left tooth. Entire process for 2 teeth is gonna cost about $300 cash (crowning) + $1k (root canal) + about $3k from Medicave (for implant)
