Oral surgery and braces to help with my gum and teeth issues. I also have alot of bone loss. Since I was a little girl every visit to the dentist was more cavities. I have had more than 100 filling done and I have 2 old bridges. Then I here brush and floss more. Then you are brushing and flossing to much. My father had dentures at age 40 years and I knew several years ago that I would be lucky to make it to 50 denture free. I have had several opinions and they are all the same. It is good to hear feed back. Dr. Mike you can jump in with your 2 feet anytime. Anything info on temporary dentures ?
