Already have worn dentures for years so retention is poor to start. I am only 50 years old and first dentures were received in my 40's. It has been a lifelong endevour to smile. Had that for 6 months though back in 1998... Every dentist visit leaves me with a treatment plan way out of my ability to afford it. What can I do with ten thousand dollars so I can at least become employed? No one will hire me looking like this. Thank you.

Answer: Fountain of Youth Denture With $10,000, you should be able to find a solution which may or may not involve implants. In my opinion, you have to be selective on the office that you choose...not all dentures are created equal and not all dentists do dentures well. A well fitting denture will limit the instability that you have, support your face, lips and muscles as well as be able to function. I have no idea how much bone loss you have, but if it is significant, you may be able to have some mini implants placed on the lower arch to help with retention. These are not ideal, but may work well in your case given the need for both new dentures and possibly some added retention. Search for Fountain of Youth dentures and you will find dentists that are experienced in creating fantastic dentures that maximize retention and facial esthetics.
