I will eventually have those two taken out cause 1. The back one is useless. There is nothing under it to chew on except my gum and it is a RC so it is destined for disaster eventually anyway and the bottom partial I do not want to do until that tooth is out because then it is just my natural teeth that my dentist say are fine. On that partial I would only do 3 teeth on it. The other side I will stretch out if possible till 2013 and if not I will have the top last tooth extracted and again the partial would be good cause it is all natural teeth unless I have enough bone on that one where I can keep that tooth and use that partial that goes around natural teeth also.
So we will see. I have some stuff obviously to fix, but again I will do it it is just finding the right time so both my kids are not home all the time like the summer. I do look foward to getting it all done because I will not have to worry about that anymore in my life but scared at the same time. I hope to have some stability by the summer with this all.
I have a concern about something. I have a 3 tooth bridge on the top I dont know the teeth numbers but if you start from the back here goes. I have the last molar, no tooth net to it and then the three tooth bridge. If I have the last molar extracted will my bridge fall out? I am so scared of that happening. I feel like it will because of the pressure that it will take for the tooth to come out. Any help would help me understand better.
Thanks so much
