I have gum disease and would like to know my options for replacing my teeth?

Q. I am 30 and just been diagnosed with periodental gum disease, what are my choices for replacement teeth? i am devastated at this news and do not fancy dentures so young many thanks,
A. There are different forms of periodontal disease, many are manageable and tooth loss can be prevented. The replacement options depend on how well the problem is controlled , costs etc. Bridges and implants are all possible in the right situation. Regards Rob
