My denture is hideous and affects my speech, why wasn’t I offered a bridge as an alternative?

Wednesday, April 13th, 2011
Q.

I’ve just had a denture fitted to replace 2 missing teeth which are cloese to the front. It looks and fels hideous and it affects my speech. I know it will take some getting used to but I was never offered the choice of having a bridge. Is there any reason why?

Can you recommend a way to replace two missing top teeth – not dentures or implants?

Monday, April 11th, 2011
Q.

i am missing 2 teeth on top.it is not the 2 front teeth, but the ones to the left and right of them. What would be the best fix for them. I don’t want no partial and i cant afford implants . One of the front ones has also started to discolor like it is going bad so i might have to have it removed too.

Can you advise what to do about my oversized, loose-fitting dentures?

Monday, April 11th, 2011
Q.

I need a second opinion.
6 months ago I was advised to have 5 teeth removed on my upper mouth as crowns had come badly adrift and also there were 2 abscesses .The dentures I have been given a) are so much bigger than my previous denture and as a family we all have small teeth so now I have a mouthful of huge teeth.
b) they are so loose I have to use copious amounts of strong fixative . The dentist says my mouth is too small to have flanges on the left hand side so it just doesn’t stay in.
c) She had another one made but it was worse than the first on , looser and teeth even longer.
This process has so far taken 6 months and we are still not sorted.She keeps blaming the technician.
Am I being unreasonable to have expected this process to be done in a much shorter time and to have teeth which fit?This is private work.

Better than others. Who do I need to see in Ogden, Utah 84414?

Can my dentures be made whiter to match remaining teeth?

Tuesday, April 5th, 2011
Q.

HI, I used to have partial denture to my upper jaw but uncomfortable.One of the teeth it replaced was at the front and rest at sides. After a few accidents it broke (easily cos of the 1 tooth at front problem). I only have 8 teeth left (upper) which includes 2 wisdom. These teeth need work on ie; small fillings. I’m contemplating having them all removed for a full top set denture mainly cos i’m 57 and would be better off doing so. Do you think I should do so?? If I decide to go ahead I would like the new teeth to be whiter shade but would then need the bottom teeth to be whitened to match or at least nearly, would this be possible as I want brighter whiter teeth. Thanx
