Question

I am 60 year old female. I am in need of dental implants. I was wearing a removable partial denture that I have now lost. In the process, I've also expereinced a broken front tooth. I visited my general dentist and they said that insurance wil not approve another partial denture based on scans and I need either dentures or implants. It is very difficult to afford in NYC and I have visited several doctors to get separate opinions.

Hello. I am of the opinion that these teeth will not last long due to the lack of jawbone surrounding your tooth roots. In such cases, the hopeless teeth are extracted and dental implant treatment is being performed. Your 3D dental CT images will give us the best idea to decide which implant system and treatment plan you need. 
Those treatments are cheaper in Turkey than US. However we offer the most quality treatments to many patients from several countries with a very high satisfaction rate.

I'm sorry to hear about the challenges you're facing with your dental health. It sounds like there's considerable damage, and there are several options to restore both functionality and aesthetics, particularly with dental implants.

Given your situation, if you're not finding the desired results or feeling comfortable with the options presented, I would recommend exploring various options in your local area. Seeking multiple opinions from different dental professionals can provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the potential treatment plans available.

Additionally, if you find that the cost of dental care in New York City is prohibitive, you might consider looking into dental tourism options. Many Americans, unable to afford certain procedures locally, choose to travel to destinations like Cancun for more affordable dental treatments. Snap-in dentures, for example, could be a viable solution. Traveling to a reputable dental facility for a week can often provide comprehensive dental solutions in a cost-effective manner.

Ultimately, the key is to explore all available avenues, consult with different dental professionals, and find a solution that not only fits your budget but also meets your dental health needs. If you have any concerns or questions, it's crucial to communicate openly with your dentists and explore the options that align with your preferences and financial considerations.
