Just take em out!!



Every once in a while we will get someone who asks us to take
all of their teeth out and just give them dentures.
In almost all cases the answer to this is no.

The reason for this is because these people are looking for a fix.
A fix to all of their dental problems.
They figure that if they have no teeth then they can't have anymore mouth problems.

Oh how wrong that is.
Dentures come with their own set of problems.
Do they fit?
Will they stay in?
Can I chew with them?
Etc.
Etc.

Now, for some people a denture is absolutely the right way to go.

But for most there are other options.
And once you go with a denture you can never go back to real teeth.

Its kind of a, the grass is always greener on the other side mentality.
Do dentures work?
Yes.
But they require work, cleaning, and care just like teeth do.
If you aren't willing to work on your teeth then the problems you
had with your teeth will follow you to your dentures.
