any other place in the forum that resembled these type of questions.
This is for my sweet mom.
My mom is not getting dental implants but "dentures"
right now she doesn't have any upper teeth because they had to remove two teeth so they can
get a mold for her new dentures.
The process will be weeks before she gets her Dentures made.
The dentist had given her some "temporary" dentures but she said they were huge and made her look
really horrible so much that she decided to not wear them at all.
Now she looks like a very old woman and very wrinkle... her face, mouth and the skin came down because of no upper teeth
making her look very wrinkle and old and I think she's depressed.
On top of that her co-workers which are all women over 50 are making fun of her at work
I want to help her
but I don't know how... I don't trust her dentist at all.. and I am afraid the dentist who is planning on doing my mom's dentures
will just make some some that are ugly and not really give me many options.
My questions are:
1- What type of dentures are there (are there many types?)
2- Which ones look more natural and beautiful
3- Do dentures help shape a face ( as to making someone look normal back again of course or even better or worse! if they are not done right?)
4- How do I know my mom's dentist is doing the proper and giving my mom all her options?
(I don't trust this dentist as she once tried to charge me more than what she was telling the insurance!) but my mom
doesn't speak English so she has stayed with this dentist because she can talk to her in her native language.
Thank you in advance for your response
