My denture is hideous and affects my speech, why wasn’t I offered a bridge as an alternative?

Q.
I’ve just had a denture fitted to replace 2 missing teeth which are cloese to the front. It looks and fels hideous and it affects my speech. I know it will take some getting used to but I was never offered the choice of having a bridge. Is there any reason why?
A.
Not sure..were you offered implants as a further alternative? Well made dentures, in the right hands and with very high quality work, can also look and feel very good

If you are unhappy or not confident in the ability fo your dentist to provide you with a very high quality fit and aesthetic result then maybe seek out an opinion from a very good local dentist or cosmetic dentist

all the best with it
