My friend had type 2 diabetes and he cant have dentures bridges or screw. is there an alternative

Q. My friend has type 2 diabetes and has had some teeth out recently. He tells me that he does not think that he will be able to have dentures/bridges or screw in teeth fitted as his gums and bones are not good. Is there any hope and/or procedure for him that will allow him a full mouth of teeth? He only has one top tooth at the front with some at the back and most of his bottom teeth at the moment. His remaining teeth are not in good condition and are very stained/bad.

A. Hi

The possiblities in replacing teeth are

1. dentures
2. implants
3. etc

I am sure there will be a suitable option, but a consultation would be required to explore the suitable option for your friend.
