I have autoimmune disease and my top teeth are falling out! Please Help!

Monday, March 29th, 2010
Q.
I am running out of top teeth! I only have 11 consecutive left (insisors and premolars). Now I have an abscess on the first (and my last) molar on the top, after seeing an Endodontist root canal procedure doesn’t seem an option. I have autoimmune disease and wondered if it is possible for a MDI to be carried out to replace two of the missing molars on either side (ie first molar on right and left side of mouth). I have a strong gag reflex so not sure if I can tolerate partial dentures. Many thanks.,
