Dear Dr Moore, I feel I am in need of extensive dental work but do not have the funds to pay for it. I have many missing teeth some of which are at the front and I feel that having these gaps filled would make a huge difference to how I feel about myself. I also have a pallet that I often struggle to wear and this now needs replacing as more teeth are now missing. I dream about the thought of having permanent implants one day but any advice on how to achieve this would be more than appreciated. I am looking forward to your reply and I hope you can help.

I Am A Diabetic And My Dentist Tells Me My Teeth Are Loose Because Of This. What Can I Do?
Tuesday, November 26th, 2013Hello Dr Hughes. I am a Diabetic and I have 3 loose teeth can I have dental implants I receive Pension credit. I cannot get on with pallets, after my past experiences I find it very difficult to speak, I have been told being a diabetic is causing this problem. Can you help me with this? My own dentist has said he cannot do this as I have a gap in the front of my mouth and I am lisping all the time which is very embarrassing. I also sometimes find it difficult eating. Thank you for any advice you can offer me regarding this matter.
I had an operation to remove a cyst and because it has destroyed my mouth, I lack confidence, can you suggest treatment to correct this?
Monday, January 17th, 2011Hi, i wondered if anyone could help me. I am 37 and gone through alot with dentists. I had a cyst growing in my mouth and was left to grow for 18yrs or more, when a new dentist came along i was referred to the hospital but i had to have a big operation. I had crowns already and missing teeth from the old dentist and lost all my confidence i hate my teeth. But, i have now no bone left in the roof of my mouth and the case was lost because of causation. I havent alot of money and i dont know where to go but my mouth is such a mess, i dont go out much apart from work cos i have really lost all confidence. Do you know any work i can have done that will reconstrut my bone, fix up the 4 front crowns and fill in the gaps along the top where my teeth are missing and sort out the fillings and discolouration from the rest of the teeth…or am i always going to be like this? i have been told my teeth have a life expectation of 3 yrs since the op which took place in feb 09…am really worried.
