Can a dental implant replace baby teeth?
I have a condition where I am missing the adult teeth for the maxillary lateral incisors. Once the baby teeth fell out, though, the adult canines (cuspids) shifted and replaced them. The result is that I ended up with two pairs of canines - the adult ones, and the baby teeth. The baby ones aren't holding out very well. There is still nerve in them, and I've had a mini-root canal on one, and the other one is starting to hurt too, so I'm thinking about implants. I don't want to wear braces, and I'm happy with my smile the way it is. Would it be possible to put in a replica of the baby teeth, or do they only do adult teeth?
Im pretty sure they would fit it according to what best fits your mouth. If that means they go with the size of the baby tooth, then it's possible they would. They dont have one size that they use on everyone, they custom make them.
