I cannot wear dentures – what would be the best replacement option?
Q. I am 35 years old.I am embarrased to go out in public and have aged fast from loss of all my teeth.I have dentures but can not wear them,the lower will not stay down and the top ones gag me.I lost all my teeth about 3-4 years ago and since I have aged fast I look like in late 40’s or 50.I never had deep wrinkles in my face till I lost my teeth.I had my teeth pulled even when the doctor told me they did not need to be pulled.Sounds crazy right,but reason was I could not afford fillings and was on medicaid and it covered to pull them.I did it because I had to have surgery and the only way to have surgery was I had to have no bad teeth in my mouth or they would cancel.After getting them out and went to have my surgery,they did not even check my mouth,what a mistake I made and ruined my life since.The doctor told me they did not need to be pulled but done it anyways and charged medicaid for full mouth of teeth being pulled.Now my mouth has sunk in like an old lady and forehead deep lines and lines coming everywhere.Is there affordable surgery to fix all this and get mini implants??Does mini implants work and stop more bone jaw loss?How to get fuller lips and deep lines gone?I have no insurance only medicaid and it dont cover nothing.What insurance to get to help with cost for all this?I need help fast and so imbarrased to go anywhere.I hate myself for this and wish I never had my teeth pulled.I have no job but need help.I stay depressed over this.Please tell me what I should do is there any help for me ??I am in SC and everything is so high here.Please tell me if it was you what all would you do to get your looks back and teeth.Please reply ASAP.Thank you,
A. It sounds like implants will be your best option although i feel regular rather than mini implants might work best. It sounds like you live in the US so I can’t tell you whether this is covered by insurance or not
Hi, I am a 68 year old male with only one tooth on my upper jaw and approx seven on the lower jaw.
I cannot wear dentures because they come out all the time,but have seen an advertisement where they drill metal type studs into your gums and the dentures clip on to them.
Do you know what I am talking about and if so is the procedure available in the uk?
I am a pensioner living on state pension, so the cosy must not be prohibative.
I have slightly deep lines down the middle of my back set of teeth what treatment is needed for this?
You could consider fissure sealants if there isn’t any decay present
