Have either of you seen a periodontist and been told you have to lose ALL your teeth?? In this day and age,there are very few reasons to have full dentures,let alone when in your 30's. Even if you can save only a few of them.its well worth it in the long run. You have so many options,but most of them will involve a lot of time and some expense (and maybe more than you are capable of doing.) PLEASE do some research before you go into this mindset. You won't be sorry!
BTW....leaving the diseased teeth and gums untreated is not good for your overall health. They can create a ton of problems.
I've been involved in dentistry in one form or another for over 30 years,and if I can help,please let me know!
