I have 2, maybe 3, upper right back teeth that need to come out. They are loose and I have bone loss so implants are not an option. I can't afford them, anyway. I'm 73 and all of a sudden, my teeth are giving me problems. I had an abscessed gum in May where the teeth need removed but I was a coward (horrible dentists in the past) and didn't get them pulled. Now, the infection is back and I need to see my dentist next week for another round of penicillin and talk to him about my options. He told me in May I could get a partial but I'm wondering if I might be due to have more teeth pulled in the near future. I have broken and fractured teeth (all uppers) and my one front tooth is nothing but filling. It's been ground down so much that there isn't any tooth left for a crown.
I'd appreciate your opinion. Thanks.
