My teeth in upper jaw became loose and beginning to fall out 1 by 1. I needed help and I didn't know who I could see to accomodate my needs. After seeing my case the doctor recommended extracting the remaining teeth and to give me 6 implants in my upper jaw. After some thought I did as he suggested and I don't have any regrets. I didn't have any complications from the surgery and most importantly my body didn't reject the implants. The cost of the implants were reasonable. After waiting a short time I had gotten permanent upper jaw dentures and they fit like a glove. I don't have problems eating cold, hot, hard or soft foods and my speech isn't any different.. The implants feel the same as my own teeth had, for that matter maybe the implants are better.
