Missing molars - What did you do?
Posted: Thu Jan 17, 2008 11:08 am
What did you do? Or do you know of other options?
I'm getting close to the end of my treatment. I hope LOL
According to the teeth diagram they gave me. LOL
I'm missing numbers 13 and 19.
They want me to get bridges but I can't afford them ($2,237. EACH).
Didn't tell me the price of implants, but I'm sure they cost more.
I've asked about other choices, but they keep acting like I'm getting the bridges because thats what the dentist thinks is best. ykwim lol
I can't afford the bridges.
So I'm wondering about something removable, or maybe something that will just hold the space open correctly.
I'm trying to figure it out now because.... I was told about 18 months, and they where put on in Aug 06. Our tax refund will be coming back soon, and I'll need to use money from it.. or what untill next year. Although depending on costs I might have to get have now and have then anyway.
Anyone have experiance with this?
I have a phone call in to them. I'll update with what they say.
Oh and since everyone likes pictures I'm I'll get some new ones posted.
