Case Description
I am 30 and most of my teeth have either fallen out or are broken. Part of this is due to a tongue ring I used to have, as well as smoking and never seeing a dentist. I have been horrible my whole life at taking care of my teeth. I brush twice a day, but have left it at that and now it is to late and the teeth are to bad to do anything. I want to see how much it would be to remove all my teeth and get dentures or implants. I am not sure if a doctor will even take this on. I have no insurance but an excellent job.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

difficult to say what you need without either a clinical exam or xrays. even better both.Removing of all remaining teeth is always an option, maybe not the best, but you have to make a treatment choice, One that you will be able to take to completion.. That involves cost considerations.Sometimes it can get quite expensive , in which case you can get financing for the treatment.As far as implants, 4-6 months after the extractions, implants might be an option. Smokers are not good candidates for successful implant treatmentthe fee for anextraction is $200/tooth povided it is routine. Sometimes with the extaction of multiple teeth for dentures you might need to recotour bone.Fee for a denture is $2500/archAs far as implants, that can be disscused at a later date when the case is in the treatment planning stage
