Should I take all my teeth out and replace them with false teeth

Q. My teeth are badly broken and damaged, one crown at front has fallen out and i am scared of dentist, should i have them all taken out and replaced with false teeth

 

A. I sympathize with your problem. You are right in considering that dental anxiety is as important in deciding what is the right choice for you. However some people who end up with false teeth go to great lengths to get rid of them. Counselling, intravenous sedation, a little confidence all can go a long way in my experience.

To decide the right choice for you: make an appointment for a check up maybe with two different practices. The answer will be different depending on how they balance your needs. One will feel more comfortable .

Hope this Helps
