Any advice about teeth

Hi all

In the last 3 months two of my teeth have broken. I have been back to the dentist and they asked if I had any pain - I dont. So they said to leave well alone. Yesterday another piece broke off the second tooth to break leaving a gapping area. I will phone the dentist on monday but I need something sorting. My age is 69 years but I feel a young 69 with no other health problems. Implants were mentioned at my last visit but they are so expensive at. £2,000 each. I dont want to get false teeth yet, if I can avoid it. I already have 5 teeth missing - which have been gone a long time. Any advice would be gratefully received. Thank you.

Some years ago I was ill and some of my teeth got fed up with me and they fell out. The ones left were wobbly so I went mad and had the rest out and had dentures. My dentist was fantastic. My dentures look like my old real ones and are still in use and I tend to forget all about them - though I give them a twice a day clean and a daily adhesive. I can eat properly since then too. It was scary at first but well worth it
