I had braces twice. I have many problems with my teeth. Beginning with braces, the first time at age 15, they didnt work. The second time i got braces at age 21, there wasnt even space for them to go back, so now my teeth relapsed, and our a little buck. My first dentist had also filed 3 of my molars saying he was correcting my bite, but it just made me start grinding my teeth at night. I wear a nightguard at night now. I have trouble chewing cuz most of my teeth are flat. I have many fillings, root canal, crowns, swollen gums, relapsing teeth that hurt. I hate my teeth, They not only look bad, but are also unhealthy. Should i remove all my teeth and get dentures at age 25? Are dentures very uncomfortable? I have dental insurance, but i'm not sure if it will help me cover for these reasons. I have been very depressed, I need advice. Thanks!

Ok first off I have dentures and I'm 27.. I got them because after having my son, who sucked away all my calcium reserves and started with my teeth. My teeth just started rotting away.. I have dentures now and I LOVE THEM.. I have pics of myself with them and Love my smile now.. There is one draw back.. it's who does them Ask you dentist if you do go ahead with this if they fit your dentures that day and put them in the day you have your teeth pulled. If they DO NOT DO THAT.. DO NOT GO TO THEM.. I have only found one place in indiana that does denture work all in one day, Which means I walked in with teeth and walked out with teeth :D.. They took molds, I left, got my perscriptions filled, and then came back later in the day, got my teeth pulled all at once, and then they put the dentures in as a pressure bandage.. The only way that the dentures will fit right is if you have them put in RIGHT AFTER you get your teeth pulled.. I have heard from many people, Young and old, that have dentures and the people that did them always waited a month or 2 before fitting them with dentures and they never really fit after then.. I personally can put my teeth in, in the morning and they won't move a millimeter. SO.. if you go get this done, it's a once in a lifetime event.. the pain is tolerable but you get NICE MEDs for that :D I still have my vicodin and I got this done about 2 months ago The last guy that posted is right.. it can be expensive. My whole procedure extraction and dentures cost 3500$ and my insurance covered $2000, So it's worth it in the long run.. I don't have to use any of the adhesive stuff either.. Sometimes I do just to make sure when I laugh all the damn time like I do.. they don't come popping out of my mouth.. it's just insurance not a necessity.. Just think about it, research it and make sure it's the best thing for you Ever since I have had people say that I look happier, and seem to like myself better, and even that I have a thinner look to my face. I hate to look at myself in the mirror without my teeth in but I love the smile I see after I put them in.. If you want to see an after picture of me I will put it in my sources.. Hope this helps.. just do research on your dentist and their procedures.. btw.. did I say I love my smile :D BTW that's what my smile looked like before my teeth went to hell in a hand basket.. so it was a good choice for me
