Hello, I have been looking for a dentist to due major dental work ,I need to have all my top teeth remove and I would like to have a dentist that can due this in one day, because as much I'm going through with SJ and lupus , I don't want to go without teeth. The problem is I either need a this dentist to donate the work I need , or they will take Medicare which they approved me for services , But I can't find a dentist that will not do the work without being paid first . Help please I've been searching for help for 2 years now, I just need one break, just a few companies I've e-mail. Pi foundation's NBC Today , Good Morning America, donations@friendsoftreasure , Maryland dental non-profit this is just to name a few. And me to you ,I know there are many people that are in my position , having pain all day ,teeth cracking , falling out, turning black, no enamel. So if anyone has a idea ,or knows of a dentist, Please send this my way Thank you
maybe a Dental School could help you....so sorry
Have the same problem. Would like to know some leads too. I also have Sjogren's & Lupus. I think all my teeth need to come out. Three times I've invested $5m to $10m to get my teeth fixed. I don't want to save any more teeth. They're too soft to repair.
You have to hold on.
I really know how you feel....Over the past 3 years I have spent over $25,000.00. I have asked the Dentist to just pull them out. (you would have thorught I asked him to shoot me!)..my Dad have all of his uppers pulled out in one day and ate a steak dinner that night! Dentist were different then ,but give me the good old days.
Sorry you have to do this, Ben, but nothing will change your wonderful smile! Some dentist will do an impression of your teeth before they are removed so that you can have new ones just like them. I haven't found one yet. I know an Orthodontist can make an impression before braces but I don't know of any dentist that does this where I live. Maybe you can find a good Oral Surgeon for the extractions & I know they have lots of other options too, which could be covered by medical insurance if it's a medical necessity. They can, more than likely, remove all of them in one day. But, they may want to do one side, let it heal & then the other, so you can eat without causing any complications like infections from food getting stuck in the teeth sockets. Hope all goes well for you.
