Please could you advise me i am so worried and although i know the situation is terrible some sound advice would at least help me to rest. I have aggressive periodontitis. With the result that i am only 34 and my bone loss is so sever on my front bottom teeth that my dentist said that i won’t them for much longer. I have moved around a lot in my life and seen different dentists and therefore not been under the care of one. This dentist said she will refer me to the hospital after my next hygienist visit but this will be in three months time. Meanwhile she said that there is nothing i can do but wait for my teeth to fall out (aside of course from impeccable hygiene).

My question is this. Would it be better to have my teeth pulled out to preserve any bone that remains. And is it possible if the bone loss is so severe that i may not be able to have dentures? This is my worst nightmare.
I have researched online and would like to know if periodontal laser therapy might be an option.

I do appreciate how busy you are but would so greatly appreciate any advice you are able to give me.
P.S I currently get help with NHS costs as although iam a professional I am a single parent. Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. 

I have a continuing infection in a tooth which has had root canal treatment several years ago. There is considerable bone loss now and the tooth gets loose and then tightens up again when the infection has passed. My dentist recommends that I have the tooth removed but I am a bit of a coward. Could you advise me what the long term effects are if I do not have the tooth removed. I have heard that it could cause me to become very ill if I allow it to continue.

Salaam.
I am suffering from grade 4 mobility with bone loss. The affected teeth are upper 2 incisors and upper left pre-molar. The doctor has suggested fixed tooth implantation but I dont want to go for it. Can you please suggest me some alternate treatment?

Is it true that orthodontic treatment can not be used if there is bone loss due to a gap (8mm) and in order to close the gap bone graft needs to be performed first?

Hi, I suffer from an extra large diastema between the top two centrals (8mm). I’m 43 hence there’s no bone under the 8mm gap. Tried many treatments but it ends up more deformed and un-natural.
What’s the best way to have a nice looking smile?

I previously had some gum disease which resulted in a small amount of bone loss on my back two teeth, according to my private dentist when he took routine x-rays. My gums are pink and healthy now and I use an electric toothbrush. However I noticed a long time ago that two of my upper front teeth had receded a bit and my tooth arent perfectly straight either (despite having braces when I was 15). I would really like to have a perfect smile. Would invisalign work (my teeth are otherwise white and healthy, no fillings) or would that make the receding gums worse? would lumineers be a better option?

my bone is too thin it was suggested to me i could have a denture supported implant . is this my only option?are they as good as normal implants?

i have gum disease loose teech and bone loss what would be the best treatment

5 years ago I had cosmetic work on my teeth because old crowns needed replacing etc however I have suffered a lot of pain and discomfort and lost several of my molers
(top) putting additional pressure on other teeth and large gaps at the back, I also have significant bone loss and doubt if implants are now an option unless I have a bone graft? a friend of mine has recently been attending a place in Budapest , they have rebuilt her gums with a type of cement that self levels after 6 months she can then have implants, is it possible to get this type of treatment in the UK and at waht cost?

hi , i am 43 and have quite advanced periodontal disease , also an overbite on my top teeth and tmj disorder . i have already had 5 teeth removed , and today i saw a periodontist and he said i need another 3 out but not replace them .. this periodontal disease started about 5 years ago . i do smoke , which i know is a huge factor in the disease .. what i want to know is if i had all my teeth removed , would that end the disease ? and could i then have implants to replace all my teeth ? or is it not possible because of gum and bone reduction ? my dentist is always saying they are trying to save my teeth , but whats the point if they are destroying whats underneath ??? Any assistance you can offer would be greatly appreciated as at present I am finding this deeply depressing at the moment in time
