He is nearly 71 years old and in otherwise good health. Over the years he has neglected dental care BIG time. In the past, it was because he felt we could not afford it. Now he has snaggle teeth, huge gaps, few teeth, badly receded gums, teeth broken off at the gum, etc.
We are about to come into wealth as a result of a recent investment. My question is, what is the first step which should be taken to restore him to a healthy mouth?
What type of professional is best to start with? He detests and probably will reject any type of surgery ... he may even object to drilling into the bone of his gum if that is a recommended procedure.
Is there any way he can be "pre" educated so that, when the time comes, he can be halfway prepared as to what to expect. He is an uneducated man, although very well read.
Thank you ... I have never seen him with a beautiful smile and surely would look forward to that.
