Pam,
I'm not upset in the least! I wish I could offer you more help! I totally understand your concerns about the health of your teeth and affording dental treatment can be a huge pain in the a*s :/
If you could manage to do all the upper extractions and go with an immediate denture at the onset..... you may be able to get a year out of it before you will need to replace it. It really all depends on the individual case and how willing your dentist is to work with you on relining your immediate denture.
Please try not to let this bring you down... it is something that you have to deal with sooner or later and I believe it can be worked out. I encourage you to discuss this option with your dentist and see if he will work out a mutually agreeable payment plan with you.
Don't give up.... keep your chin up... stay focused on the positive because that emotion is what will guide you through this. Okay......
Bryanna

I hope that my post above didn't make you feel bad, that wasn't my intent, I just felt so lost and sad and afraid. I am very appreciative of your time here and wanted to post again to let you know that. |
