Hi razzel,
Why was #14 and 15 removed? Why is #16 loose? Do you have periodontal disease?

14 was abcessed and 15 was removed many many years ago.....no periodontal disease , just bone loss I assume . went to another dentist yesterday and she said it needs to go also .. bone loss so I guess its coming out , will have to end up getting a partial for that side ....

Hi razzle,
Bone loss is usually caused by gum disease or an accident that caused trauma to the teeth. Bone loss does not occur when the gums and teeth are healthy. Even in older people Do you have other teeth in the upper right that are loose? If so, then perhaps before the partial denture is made, a thorough evaluation should be done so that you don't end up with a partial denture that you cannot wear because other teeth need to be removed. A partial denture can replace missing teeth on both sides of the arch but it has to be fabricated in such a way to be able to replace all of them. Otherwise it would be useless if other teeth were removed later on.
