I have a fear phobia of visiting a dentist

Sunday, October 26th, 2008
Q.
Hello, I have a fear phobia of visiting a dentist, but i desperately need help. My front bottom teeth have gradually become loose and two of them totally removed. However, I am so embarrassed to seek help, I constantly fix them in place using denture fixative.

i cant afford dental implants will i need dentures

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008
Q.
I am 45 and have half crowns, and half teeth in my mouth. The crowns are not in great condition and my dentist is advising implants costing over £1500, which i really don’t have, I receive family tax credit. I really loathe the thought of dentures but am terrified I am going to end up with no teeth to replace the crowns. I just don’t know what to do or where to turn. I have had three crowns that have come loose this year and been cemented again, but obviously this is a short term option. Can you advise anything I can do?? Deni
