im 16, i have false teeth? DENTISTS PLEASE HELP?
okay, so i have six missing teeth, and 3 baby teeth still, the missing teeth wont grow back. i had no adult teeth buds for them.
so i have to wear dentures, to make it look better, which i hate, but i always wear them becuase i hate how i look without them
but i have the option of implants.
i also have an underbite, (i think – my bottom teeth always overlap my top teeth, and i cant make it any different) what will happen to make this right?
so my questions are:
are implants better for me than dentures (ive jsut turned 16)?
if i have to get a brace, will i be able to wear my dentures as well?
how will they fix my undernbite?
thank you so much! i hate my mouth!
I have dental implants and I too have an underbite. My dental professinal put the implants in and then the teeth they created for me fixes my underbite. How exactly they did this is beyond me. The teeth are screwed onto the implants. See my smile?
I believe the condition you have is Ectodermal Dysplasia, I was born with a condition too called Cleidocranial Dysplasia which is opposite of yours. I was born with too many teeth.
Here is a link to see a young girl with the exact situation you have and what they did for her. She had no permanent teeth only baby teeth.

wow i feel so bad for you i meen i thought my teeth were bad…but anyway get the implants then you dont have to worry about your teeht falling out
You need to find a very good dental specialist who can evaluate all of your issues, over the long run dental implants would be best for a young person. They will preserve your bone and you would not have to worry about putting your teeth in a cup. I am not sure how they correct your bite.
Check around for a specialist
