Can you advise me about overdentures?

Q. Hi, I have been advised by dentists in budapets that after having my remaining eight front teeth removed(du e to gum disease) I can have 6 implants, but for esthetic reasons they have advised me to have an overdenture as there is too much gum exposed for me to have a bridge. I am a bit concerned about an overdenture. Can you advise please.,
A. overdentures are a good way of improving comfort the of dentures and aesthetically are very successful in most cases. They are often used when there has been moderate to severe bone loss- to a point where the teeth may look too long on the final restoration.The only drawback will be the need to remove the dentures 2-3 times a day for cleaning
