I am suffering from extensive bone loss, would it be best if I received dentures?

Saturday, December 4th, 2010
Q.

I am a 36 yr female. fixed income insurance covers 50% of dental. I went yesterday to have my teeth cleaned and they said I had to have extinsive bone loss. I have my e ray I can try to scan and e-mail you. I can not afford to have the periodontal deep cleanings done. I only have 26 teeth left . My question is would my long term cheapest method be doing ahead and getting dentures. I cannot afford the proper care to save the rest of my bone and teeth. Please some advice..

If I had veneers placed after my Invisalign treatment would they be able to provide me with a retainer also?

Saturday, December 4th, 2010
Q.

I am nearing the end of my invisalign treatment (nearly 2 years) and I am unhappy with the results.

I have a bonded retainer at the bottom but it is uncomfortable and the other teeth have moved back causing one to be wobbley, its been like that for the last 8 months.

When I finish the top set my ortho wants another bonded retainer. I think I will want veneers so want to avoid the bonded retainer.

If I get veneers done elsewhere will they still be able to provide me with a retainerk, If so what retainer and how much will it cost?

Thanks

THE LOWER LEFT BRIDGER CONSIST OF A TOTAL OF 4 AND THE LOWER RIGHT IS

CANTILEVER BRIDGE FOR A TOTAL OF 3.

THE LOWER LEFT HAS COME OUT ONCE AND THE LOWER RIGHT TWICE.

THE FIRST TIME THAT LOWER RIGHT CAME OUT MY DENTIS CEMENTED THE CANTILEVER BRIDGE WITH RELY- X3M CEMENT. HOWEVER, THE BRIDGE CAME OUT AGAIN. I GOING TO SEE MY DENTIS ON MONDAY.

I SPOKE TO MY DENTIS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND SHE CLAIM THAT THE REASON FOR THIS IS THAT I AM GRINDING MY TEETH. I DO NOT BELIEVED I DO BECAUSE MY WIFE SAID THAT I SLEEP WITH MY MOUTH OPEN.

I HAVE TRIED TO WEAR A DENTAL GUARD AT NIGHT HOW EVER I HAVE BREATHING PROBLEMS WHEN I WEAR THE DEVICE.

DO YOU HAVE ANY RECOMMENDATION REGARDING MY PROBLEM.
