I suppose I'm just looking for some support here. There is only one person in my life who knows
whats going on and only because he was witness to a horrible infection of one of my teeth
last year.
I've delt with bad teeth my whole life, for alot of different reasons. And now I'm to the point where drastic
measures need to be taken.
I'm only 26 and seriously considering partial dentures for my bottom side and back teeth. I've read the
arguments and I know the popular belief of "save the teeth at all costs". But trust me when I say, these teeth
are beyond saving. Beyond repair. And the mention of cost is tricky, as cost is one of the main reasons I've
gotten to where I am now. Implants would be an option if it were financially possible. But as a single parent
struggling to make ends meat as it is, implants are simply out of the question.
I hate that I am so young and having to consider this route, but I want my life back. Just simply eating, drinking
smiling like a normal person.
And with the research I've done thus far, the partial dentures seem all the way around, a decent way to go.
Are there any other people my age looking into doing the same? Any info from people who have had them
done and what I should expect?
Would really appreciate some words of support on this. My mouth is by far my biggest source of insecurity
and anxiety. And I'd just like to find some form of relief with the topic.
