Would dentures be a safer option for someone who is diabetic?

April 8th, 2011
Q.
My wife (early 50\’s) is diabetic and has receeding gums with deep pocketing (we are unsure of bone loss) due to this she has already lost a few teeth with resultant gaps and now finds chewing nearly impossible – should she consider replacing the lost teeth with implants or having all her remaing teeth removed and then having a full set of implants or with her medical conditions would dentures be a better/safer option? Regards.,

What should I do in regards to the bone grafting?

February 22nd, 2011
Q.
It has been suggested for me to have a bone graft from my chin to replace a small amount of bone loss on my fromt tooth. I do have a high lip line. I can opt for placement now and take the risk theat the gum does not receed. I am not sure what to do. My tooth was extracted after an infection and has been out for 6 months. Please help!,
