Can a flipper be worn as a permanent solution for missing teeth
I have always had bad teeth and the last dentist I had really jacked my teeth up more so I know that they really can not be fixed. I did find a new dentist that I like and he is really good but is limited to what he can do with the teeth that are left and making them look good.
I spoke to him about veneer but they are quite expensive and I can not afford them. I have heard about flippers from that beauty pageant show they have on TLC. I know you can not eat with them but other then that could they be worn on a daily bases? I would really like to know because I heard they would be cheaper then veneers so I may be able to afford them if they will work that way.

I do not see why not but talk to your dentist. See if that is a good choice. I would think that partial or dentures would be a better way to go since you can eat with them in and they are still less expensive the dental implants.
