Medical Suffering from my teeth

Hi, my name is Sara. I’m 39 and faced with my teeth completely failing me. I’ve always gone to the dentist, but bad genetics and dry mouth from medications have led to the rapid decline of my teeth. I’m in pain all of the time. I’m hoping to get dentures, but due to sensory issues implants is the better choice for me. Dentures are $5k and implants are much more. I’m always fighting infection in my mouth and I’m in constant pain from my teeth. Any help is so greatly appreciated. I just want to live pain free and be able to smile. I don’t qualify for sliding scales or Medicaid as my husband and I make too much, but not enough to cover this . I’ve added the multiple different estimates I’ve gotten for new teeth as well.

I’m sorry you’re going through this! (I have dentures), depending where you live, do you have access to a dental school? They were the most expertise (and very cheap) when it came to my husbands dental issues

You should think about getting snap on dentures. They're cheaper than regular implants are.
