Q.
Hi, I am looking at whether it would be possible to have all of my teeth extracted. Bad teeth run in the family and as a result of this both my parents now have dentures(due to poor teeth). I six crowns(five at the front and one at the back)the three at the front have moved leaving a considerable gap where there wasn’t one before. Most of my teeth have fillings, the fillings are fine but my teeth are crumbling around these. My teeth are very sensitive to temperature change hot or cold(mainly back teeth)and also sensitive to sweet foods. My gums have receeded alot and I can feel the tops of the teeth. I am terrified of going to the dentist as every visit usually ends up with more work needing doing. Any advice you could offer would be so helpful. Many thanks.
