My husband wants to replace his dentures with implants, what do you suggest?

February 8th, 2011
Q.
Hi Dr Moore My husband has just had to have his teeth removed and has been given a top denture, however, he hates it and wants to have implants. The dentist has advised that for him to have implants for his top and bottom jaws will cost £30,000. I am shocked as I see lots of different prices online and I have implants myself that did not cost that. We have also had a quote from another dentist for mini implants top and bottom of £5,000 using bicon implants. Would this option be useful for him? Thanks so much for your advice. Anne,

Can I get implants to replace upper denture?

January 12th, 2011
Q.
Dr Moore, I am in my 50’s and am considering replacing my upper denture(almost full arch) with dental implants. I have been informed that I would need a bone graft and a sinus augmentation to do the implants. As I have an aging mouth with poor lip support, deep laugh lines and marionette lines due to the loss of teeth and use of denture for about 30 years, kindly advise whether dental implants with bone augmentation can help to provide better lip support and alleviate the laugh and marionette lines. Thanks.,
A.
There is a good chance that th… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Have I wasted my money on lower implants for a denture?

January 3rd, 2011
Q.
I have lower implant for a denture. The o rings have been replaced many times because the plate gets loose and flops around. I paid thousands of dollars for this thinking I would always have a secure denture. Now I am told that these rings need to be replaced every 6 mos at a cost to me. Now therings don’t even last a month. I was also told it is what I eat that could be the problem. I chose this route of denture replacement because I wanted to resume my normal eating habits, which include corn on cob, steak, nuts, gum. Now to be told this is my problem, I should have gone the simple denture route. I have little jaw and also this is my problem. I have no problems with the abuttments, just the denture plate. Any suggestions, or did I throw 7 grand to the wind or someones vacation. I have only had this for 3 years…..

this does not sound normal, pl… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
