Q. I am 41 years old and am losing most my teeth to gum disease,what kind of false teeth would i be looking at getting? I feel I’m to young for the kind my 76 year old mother wears.

A. This depends on how many teeth you’ve lost. It could also be possible to use implants to hold fixed teeth or to anchor dentures firmly in place. You could also try to save as many teeth as possible and use bridges or a chrome denture
