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.
