I want the best natural looking dentures but have no money for implants

Q. My dentist told me today I have no other choice but to have a full top denture I am so depressed and have cried all day What would be the most natural looking and best denture to consider. I am only 35yrs old I have always had beautiful teeth but due to being a single mother of two boys when I have grinded and broke my teeth from this and not having the money to fix the broken tooth it has then resulted in getting it pulled.

I wish I could get implants but I know that is a dream I will never get due to getting the things for boys they need which comes first. I have never been so depressed getting such news it seems so unfair I work hard but because I am not rich I have to look like a old lady and can’t even eat my food. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am sorry I wrote so much I am just upset about all this. But If I do have to have these dentures I want natural looking ones.

A. Dear P

Firstly, i am very sorry to hear of your situation and I understand how upsetting it can be. If dentures are your only option at this moment you can have really life like ones made. We make then all time, often for an interim period while we place implants and our clients always comment on how amazing they look. The next option would be to look at an implant retained denture which would be a bit more expensive but would allow your dentures to be fixed in a lot more. You can always have dentures now and slowly build up to implants. We also do wonderful finance plans which allows lot people to spread the treatment costs over a longer period sometimes as much as 5 years. I would advise you having a consultation or chat so you can understand your options.

I hope this helps.

I have also been told that I have to have my lower jaw teeth removed and find it very depressing. I cannot believe that it is not understood how traumatic having a mouth prosthesis is. If it were one of our limbs councelling would have been given.

I also need a full upper denture, but am very interested in the “implant retained denture” Can you give me more info about this procedure, including approximate cost? For instance, if regular upper denture cost $1,000. How much would full upper implant retained denture cost? Thank you for your help.

Hi, Basically I had a very unbalanced face with a weak jaw and chin and I didn’t like it, so I held my jaw forward everyday. I am still doing this andwhenever I bite I look very bad in terms of lip posture, chin and jaw. I have done this for 2 years now and it has more or less just become natural.Now I am getting tired of this would like to just relax as it it causing mejaw pain etc. But the problem is I look even worse now when I bite with aweak jaw and chin with a very unbalanced profile. It seems in the time I have been holding my jaw forward, my right jaw has moved out of place. My bite is strange as when I bite my teeth my left back teeth touch whereas my right side doesn’t by a very small distance and when I do force my right backteeth to touch, my whole face feels strained. I was wondering if you couldhelp me overcome this and fix my face. Thanks so much for your time, it isgreatly appreciated
