ADVICE NEEDED PLEASE

by tina38, Feb 04, 2008 07:46AM
HI i am 38 years old and i have unfortunately damaged 3 of my right teeth which are right next to each other which are going to have to be extracted. I have been to the dentist today to see what will happen after the 3 teeth are taken out and he says i will have to have a dentures to replace these missing teeth i assumed that the denture would be on a plate attached to the teeth on the other side of my mouth but he says not it will be held in by suction is that the best way also will i have to glue it in to keep in place i am feeling very scared now as dont want it to be noticeable that i am wearing it apart from that all my other teeth are fine apart from just missing a few. thanks for listening tina.

Dentures are not attached to the teeth. They are a teeth that you can take in and out of your mouth. Only crowns and caps are put onto the teeth.
