Q. I have a porcelan brige of 8 teeth and it keeps falling out. i have had it about 18 mo. dentist now wants me to get false teeth and pull all roots…can you help me with better news than that…..i am 70 and in good health

A. You could ask him if its possible to replace the roots with implants instead of dentures. This might be a more comfortable alternative to false teeth
