i have no bone structure on the lower jaw to support dentures is implants the only option?
Q. I am 56 years of age and have had debtures since I was 21 years of age. I had a check up today to see if my dentures could be religned as the bottom denture is moving around my mouth really bad I was informed that it would not make much improvement although my gums are healthy I have no bone structure at all on the lower jaw and she has suggested an operation to insert an implant of a source which would enable my jaw to support a denture but it would cost around £3,000 to £4,000 I am on benefits can you suggest anything else? I am so desperate and have hated having dentures all my life.
A. Unfortunately once you have lost bone support the only really good solution is to have implants if possible
