Dr. Seth: Sorry but not really. You could get a palateless denture that are supported by Implants which would give you better results.

My grandson is 14 yrs old.
He went to the dentist and the
dentist recommended that he should have all his upper teeth removed. He stated that his upper gum had not formed correctly, causing him to not have an over-bite and the enamel on the teeth had been
grinded off. No matter how much brushing this boy does, his teeth are decaying rapidly.
He's 14 years old!!!! Way to young for dentures..and very vulnerable to teasing by other children.
what I would like to know, Is
implants possible for his situation..What would you reccommend?
Since they have already pulled a lot of his upper teeth, Is it possible to have this done during a holiday school break...With his teeth being repaired before school resumes?
This child needs help!
