I'm in a state of shock today. I went to a new private dentist for a check up. I had 4 teeth extracted and an immediate partial denture inserted 3 months ago with my NHS dentist. I booked an appointment privately hoping to get a better denture but was informed I should wait another 3 months until my gums are healed. He went on to say I have Periodontal disease and need deep cleaning treatment which I agreed to. He also informed me that I might not be able to have a denture. I am in shock. Surely people with Periodontal disease can have dentures. I know many people who have dentures due to tooth loss from the disease.
