I have a question. WHY is it that DENTAL work is SO MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE than any other medical procedure on planet earth? It appears that one's teeth has always been considered to be a VANITY thing, rather than a HEALTH issue. I don't understand that as almost ALL diseases originate in the MOUTH. So WHY on EARTH is it SO expensive to have to get work done on your teeth? Thanks for any response. It just seems SO outrageous that the average run-of-the-mill person, even those who have a GREAT dental plan, that getting something like the snap-on dentures are WAY OUT of their price limits? It's just so unfair that so many have to settle for regular dentures when they may NEVER be able to adjust all because they don't have the income to finance them, especially those of us who already HAVE great dental coverage. - Susan Burns
Hi Susan. I pretty much agree with everything you said. I’ll make another video explaining why dentistry is so expensive. This seems to be a universal problem. Sadly, that is a problem that has been around for a long time. Most dentists are not rich folks the ways other presume they are. Dentistry has so much overhead, and most dentists have to charge what they do just to stay in business. I don’t know, maybe some day politicians can help solve this problem. But as of right now, dentistry is very costly, and even more so for people who need it the most and have the least resources.
It seems that in some countries, governments subsidize dental schools, and many graduates commit to doing dental work for working people, or even the poor, for a number of years in an exchange. They’re not in debt which frees them up to keep their prices accessible to those who really need. I would imaginge that keeps predatory insurance companies at bay. Your thoughts?
Imagine if you have advanced sjogren's, plus a goiter in your throat (from sjogren's Hashimoto's) plus GERD (from Sjogren's), which = dry mouth (that won't hold traditional upper dentures, plus probable gum and mouth infections, all from sjogren's since my early teens, that ate my teeth away and caused incredibly painful infections for decades)... a clearly MEDICAL disease, and STILL All on 4s, etc... not even traditional dentures... are actually (fully) covered by medical or dental insurance and NO kinds of implants are covered at all. And the ADA fights becoming part of MEDICAL because they want to price gouge!!!! Suffering patients, especially seniors on Social Security... choking on food, losing nutrients from having bowel movements of unchewed food, that further aggravates the GERD and IBS, from the Sjogren's. THIS IS EVIL AND CRUEL.

I am so very grateful for you videos... you've answered sooooo many questions. Thank you
Hi doctor
My problem is my torus palatinus above my mouth
What is the solution for this? Whithout operation?
Hi Celine. So for those of you who don't understand the question, the patient has a large bony bump on the roof of the mouth that prevents the fabrication of a full denture with palate coverage. Surgery to remove the torus should be your last option in my opinion. You can try to make a full denture that does not cover the torus and see how it fits. If the denture ends up being too loose, then you should consider adding a few dental implants and getting snap on dentures. I would place at least three dental implants to avoid needing palatal coverage. Hope this helps and best of luck!
Thank you so much.I understand what I need to do so much better now.Sally Perumal from South Africa
I just had a consultation on a full top zirconia arch. The cost was $50k. I don't have a problem with the cost, but, then they sent me to another consultation and that person said I needed bone grafts. It would be 6 hrs of surgery, another $25k. Now, again, I don't have a problem with the price ,but I don't want to go under IV sedation for 6 hrs, wait endless months for the bone grafts to heal, if they even do so, then another 5 1/2 hr surgery for the implants, and of course waiting for the rods to adhere before that can be completed. I just can't see myself doing 11 1/2 hrs of surgery. I went in there because my front tooth crown fell off, taking the tooth with it. Now, my question is, will I run into this same problem with the snap-on dentures? The bone grafting?
Hi Lisa. Thank you for sharing your story. You are correct, getting full permanent teeth, especially made from Zirconia, is a very lengthy and costly process. I wish I could tell you there is a shorter and easier way, but there usually isn't. The snap-on-denture process, in terms of surgery and time, is really not much easier. I mean you still have to remove the teeth and graft them, then place the implants later. So if your primary concern is the surgery time and pain, then there is not much difference between these two options. Going the full denture route would be easier, but then of course you are getting removable teeth. I suggest going for a second opinion if you're still on the fences. Check out my video which compares all-on-4 and snap-on-dentures for a better understanding of these two treatments: ruclips.net/video/Wvk7Cggld6U/видео.html
Recently got partials; had no idea what to expect & am researching like mad before going back to the dentist. The bottom (metal plate, as you show in the video - it's impossible, I had no idea all this metal would show, and it feels much too hard/big/cumbersome) will not work for me. I need to understand options, if there are any on my budget/ha . Wish I could afford implants, as bone/jawline loss is my biggest issue around all this... anyway, your video is very informative - thank you :)
Thanks for watching. You are right, partial dentures can be a hit or miss. Some people do very well with them, but for many, the bulk and size of the denture is too much to handle.
@@johnjazayeri German viewer here:I wanted to ask:did you forget the "German dentures "-here they are called "Teleskopprothese "-or don't you do them AT ALL in the US?!?-Because I think they 're a VERY GOOD option for people who have at least 3or 4 STABLE teeth left-these are "shaved down "a little, and a crown is put on top-then they work as "pillars "-same principle like your "snap on dentures "!!
Love your videos. You should have loads more subscriber's
If only snap in or implants were affordable 😕 that would be awesome. Interesting info tho
My mother is having implant retained dentures soon and i thought All on 4 were implant retained dentures i dont undertand the difference. She really did not get on well with the normal glue down denture so she thinks implant retained will work well and she can eat properly without them moving around which i hope works,
Hi Sajid. Implant retained dentures and all-on-4 are two completely different treatments. I made a video specifically to explain the differences between these two treatments. Check it out and hopefully it will answer all of your questions: ruclips.net/video/Wvk7Cggld6U/видео.html
@@johnjazayeri thanks I will watch this
Hi I've just watched your video I've got the metal ones I'm really trying to get use to them but the top ones it's the palate can I get some of it removed? and I've just lost a tooth you said they can add to it how long does it take I'm from the UK 🇬🇧 thankyou for reading my message 😀
Hi Angela. Your dentist may be able to remove some more of the palate to make it more comfortable. So long as it is the acrylic portion. They really can't cut much off of the metal portion as it can weaken the structure. Also, the more you cut from the palate, the looser your denture will become. You might have to go back and forth a few visits to have your dentist trim a little bit at a time until you're comfortable with them.
The good news is that adding a tooth is relatively simple, especially to a metal-based partial denture. Your dentist needs to remove the tooth, take an impression (which can be done before or after the tooth extraction), and send the partial to the lab. The lab will add resin and the missing tooth to fix it. You will pick it up from your dentist, typically in a few days, and make sure that the new tooth is comfortable and not interfering with your bite, etc. I hope this helps and good luck with your treatment!
Don’t those metal clamps for partial 🦷 teeth make your own teeth rot ??
Hi Debby. Great question. Partial dentures, aka partials, could accelerate the damage to your remaining teeth. Particularly, teeth that are used as claps are more vulnerable to developing decay and becoming loose over time. Here are a few pointers to minimize the damage:
1. Remove your partials at night times to allow your teeth and gums to breathe
2. Spend a great amount of time brushing the anchor teeth, more than you would with your other teeth
3. See your dentist regularly so that they can monitor these anchor teeth and treat them should they need to be treated
John when it comes to basic complete dentures do they only come in an acrylic or are there other materials they can be made from? For example l am currently wearing a metal partial? Are there different qualities? Many thanks.
Hi. You are correct. Complete dentures are typically made from acrylic. Acrylic is light weight, resembles gum tissue, and is repairable, making it the perfect material for fabricating dentures. There are different qualities of acrylic, which you can discuss with your dentist if you're looking for an upgrade. Metal is usually not used for complete dentures, other than when placing a metal mesh or wire inside the acrylic to re-enforce the denture.
Thank you so much for your terrific reply!
