Can anyone give advice on getting a partial denture to replace front upper four teeth that protrude?
I’ve seen an orthodontist who said he would put braces on my teeth but thought they would probably move back to a protruding position fairly quickly because of my tongue thrust. I could wear a retainer but I’m middle aged and want something that is more permanent without the long process of braces and the hassle of wearing a retainer. Specialists have said that fixing them in other ways (veneers) would be difficult, if not impossible, and very expensive because of the overbite. So I’m thinking of taking the extreme step of having the front four pulled out and replaced with a partial denture. I have a consultation arranged next week with a denturist and have been researching the net to read other’s experiences but haven’t found much yet. Has anyone gone through this procedure and if so, are you happy with the results?
