I basically have no teeth and no bone in my jaw. Is there something anyone can do?

August 27, 2014
Asked By:Michelle Flaherty in Plymouth, MA

I have a full upper denture and significant bone loss, so eventually the denture will not hold. In addition, I had all but my eye teeth in my lower jaw replaced with implants. The implants have failed after 8 years and I have serious bone loss in my lower jaw along with soft tissue. I am only 64 years old and would never be seen outside my home without teeth. Is there help?
