Visitor asks:
Dear Sir/Madam,
In the front of my lower jaw I have only 5 teeth left and none at the back. I have severe periodontal disease and high blood pressure, so I have absolutely no conditions for implants. Of the 5 teeth, the middle three are mobile — one very much and two slightly — while 2, one on each side, are firm and healthy, at least as far as I can tell. Can these two teeth be used in any way when making a denture? What is the price of the denture?
How quickly could I get an appointment at your practice? How long would it take to make the denture?
Thank you for your answer.
Kind regards, Magda

Dear Sir/Madam!
The reasons you have listed are not contraindications to implant placement. Even with high blood pressure and periodontal disease, implants can be placed very successfully.
The two firm teeth in the lower jaw (I assume they are the canines) are certainly worth keeping in the mouth, as they will successfully stabilize the denture. I could tell you how they might be used as supporting elements after a clinical examination and review of an X-ray. As an example, we can give you the price of a denture with a cast metal base (EUR 710).
Have a nice day!
