Hi,
I have severe gum recession, I have it in two teeth mainly, front bottom ( on a post ) and one at the side of that. the front one is very loose and the gum part on that tooth has receded very badly, the one next to it not quite as bad.
I have to go to the hygienist to get a cleaning and terrified this will cause the wobbly tooth to come out, I have already been told by a previous dentist that I need a partial denture, but this new dentist wants me to go to the hygienist. She said if the tooth comes out they can then make a partial denture, she also said if it does come out come out that no-one will notice ...everyone will notice, it is right at the front.
I left my previous dentist because he did not have the patience with my anxiety and fear, I am worried I made a mistake as this new dentist is really nice, but does not seem to understand the anxiety that potentially being toothless is causing me...
