Dental bridge removal - which treatment band?

5 replies

I’ve had a bridge with one tooth taken out this afternoon and the tooth in front of it filled (regular filling). I have to go back in a week for a review. Can’t work out if this will be treatment Band B or C? I forgot to ask at the time. Does anyone happen to know please? Dentist thinks I shouldn’t need a crown and that the filling should do the trick .

Sounds like band 2. Did you not get a treatment plan after your check up?

Thanks MrsMorton. I had my check-up today where dentist thought best thIng would be to remove the bridge as it’s ancient and been causing problems for a while. He was looking at when he could do it and asked how I’d feel above it it being done there and then as patient after me had cancelled. So there wasn’t much of an opportunity to talk about cost at the time. Really hoping it will be band B .

It's band 2 providing you don't have anything to replace the bridge, so no new bridge or anything

Dish thank you. I’m not replacing it as you can’t see the gap when I talk/smile and as there aren’t any teeth above it any more I’d not have a proper biting surface. Great that it’s band 2 as £200+ at this time of year isn’t ideal.
