A. Very bad teeth are often very savable at your age. It’s the underlying tooth (the root) and the bone support around it that is crucial as to whether the tooth needs to come out. What you need is a full assessment of your mouth including a reason found why your teeth are in such a bad way. This is often due to a dietary problem( too much sugar) and would need to be resolved before any major work was carried out. X-rays will reveal how much root and bone is left. The health of your gums need to be assessed as well. Finally the way your teeth come together needs to be considered to make sure that the major work that is undertaken will last you along time. There are other things a dentist may look at but the above would be a good starting point.

It is impossible for me to give you even a rough estimate of the costs involved. I am sue a dentist in your area will give you a an estimate once the initial assessment is completed.

Kindest regards
