Well, #1, if you are wearing a denture or false teeth, you don’t go to the dentist, so you don’t know your options.
#2, if you are wearing a denture, let me tell you about your life before you got there. You’ve had root canal after failed root canal and endodontists and periodontists and gum surgery, you’ve had bridges and partials, and failed this and failed that, and one day they took out all your teeth…
So the challenge is with these patients, it’s hard to get them in because of everything they’ve been through in the past! What they don’t realize is, they come in on a Monday, and they could have a brand-new set of teeth on Tuesday.
#3 is that they think well I’m 70 or 80 – they think they’re too old. I’ve given a 101-year-old their teeth, so you’re not too old!
When people plan their retirement with their investment advisor or CPA, they don’t design it based on eating food and going on cruises in dentures. It’s not part of the plan.
Nobody should be wearing dentures. It’s over. At least in my office.
