i have suffered from periodontal gum disease I am dreading further teeth loss
Q. I have suffered from periodontal gum disease for a few years. I am an otherwise reasonably healthy ex-smoker aged 51yrs. I have now lost approx. 6 teeth (upper only) and have recently needed to start wearing a partial denture. I find this very upsetting and dread further teeth loss. What would you recommend (for someone who has very limited funds)I do?
A. Get your teeth well cleaned by hygeinist or dentist, repeat the cleanings until you periodontal diasease has stabilised.
spend plenty of time refining your cleaning tecnique, it is the best and cheapest way to manage the problem and prevent further loss.
most of the alternatives to dentures may involve costs, so plan now and decide if you need to save towards your ideal result.
