Looking for a dentist with a heart
Need of dental work
Due to medical issues I have always had bad teeth. Over three years ago I was able to get bottom dentures since I had good insurance though my job. I no longer have that job since they closed down. Now I have no insurance and my top teeth are in very bad shape. They hurt and I know I need dentures for the top teeth. Also my bottoms dentures need to be adjusted.
I need help I want to go to a caring dentist since I am in such bad shape I do not want a dentist that will think badly of me like I do not try and take care of my teeth. How can I find a dentist that will do the work I need with out making me feel bad about myself? Advise please

Do you really think that it is hard to fine a carrying dentist. Most dentist are not going to make their patients feel bad about themselves.
I suggest just calling around. Tell the person that answers what you have going on and you want a dentist that is understanding. That you are scared of going but know you need to have a lot of work done.
If you do that and let them know before you appointment they will be able to let the dentist know to be more caring to your needs.

Well I have a great dentist. He is very caring and would never make any of is patients feel bad about themselves. I have no clue as to were you live to say go to him.
However, I can not see too many dentist being rude and staying in business for too long. When you think about it, I am sure they have seen worse teeth then yours.
I would advise looking into health issue as to why you have bad teeth if you indeed take good care of them. Example would be that diabetics can have very bad teeth due to the diabetes. Just something to look into

Do not worry so much. If you come across a dentist that is rude to you about your teeth. Then just get up and walk out. Easy as that. Do not get your feeling hurt by anyone saying anything to you about your teeth. Even a dentist.
You need work done for your oral health as well as your over all health. Getting that work done is what is important.
Wishing you well soon
