I want to straighten my teeth but I am worried that it will not be worth it as there is gum disease in my family, should I just get dentures instead?

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011
Q.

My dad had pyaria. His teeth were perfect but had to have them removed and received dentures because of disease. My gums have been receeding badly for years. I can see the roots of my teeth. Last dentist appt they did a measuring of gum to bone. Mine were not good. For two weeks now I’ve been tasting “infection”. Best word I can think of to describe. I rince with peroxide but there you have it. I have very good oral hygiene habits but i was told I have “soft” teeth as well as deep grooves. All back teeth have fillings. I would like to have teeth straighter but afraid to put money into it if I’m going to loose my teeth anyway. I’m basicaaly wondering if I should just go ahead and get dentures.

Will my speech return to normal soon after getting dentures?

Thursday, January 13th, 2011
Q.

On Tuesday my dentist removed my front four teeth which were root canal filled with amalgum. One tooth has become loose following a fall, the other three had also been damaged. I have a neuro condition and he was concerned about the amalgum fillings saying that they could be making the neuro problems worse. I have a denture fitted, which looks good, but I am really struggling with speaking (S’s mainly). Will this improve, or should I look at getting something else done?
Woken up for the past 2 mornings without a headache, and ‘buzzing’ in legs seems much improved – so just speech to get sorted!

my dentures don’t fit well and make me feel sick – can I insist that my NHS dentist fit a bridge instead?

Wednesday, January 12th, 2011
Q.

Hi, I lost both my upper front teeth nearly two years ago and have had several removed from further back. I have had two dentures made, both make me feel physically sick and effect me everyday. They hurt constantly and I can’t wait to get home and take them out. Everyone I have spoken to do not have this problem.

I want to go back to my dentist and ask for a dental bridge, which has never been offered to me. I am only 45 and this seriously effects me professionally and personally. I receive NHS dentistry and wonder if I could insist on a bridge.

At my wits end, thank you so much for your help.

My front dentures are weak but i can’t afford dental treatment, what do you advise?

Wednesday, January 12th, 2011
Q.

Hi Sunita

Im a 22 year old female with a problem thats dragging me further and further downwards, my teeth.
I broke my front two when i was younger and through various negligence from dentists and my parents they were never sorted. I did have a cap on the front left one, but it broke and im now stuck with a denture with two teeth on as the whole was so big for one tooth to go back there, thats what the denture dentist told me. Now thed tooth next to it (the other broken one) is chipped,discolored and looks awful.
As i have never been able to eat using my front teeth, ive always had to use my back ones which has put extra strain on the,m, so there now starting to break away and cause me aggony. I hate the way they look and the restictions they are putting on my life. Ive been asked to do modeling but i will not put my self through the embarresment of the rejection agaisnt all those other girls. Im so down about this and i need help,
I live on my own, no financial help or anything, i do work though but all the prices i have been looking at are way more than i can even image paying, i dont know what to do anymore!!
