Not brushing teeth?

Just wondering what happens if someone doesn't brush their teeth and they fall out, can they only get fake teeth like old people get? Or are there any other options?

Not brushing teeth?
You really can't be seriously considering not brushing your teeth till they fall out! Usually they won't fall out; in fact, it is rare for bad teeth to simply fall out. Usually they will end up badly decayed and infected, which means painful, and need to be extracted.


When teeth are extracted, the bone level around the teeth recedes or goes down because there is no longer a supporting structure. The younger you are when you lose your teeth, the more bone loss you will experience. Dentures are an option, up to a point. A newer procedure done these days are having mini-implants placed in the bone and having overdentures in place over these. There is tremendous support for the dentures this way, even though nothing replaces having your own teeth.
Reply:False teeth are an option if the teeth get really bad (lots of rotting and cavities). But, I think with isolated teeth getting bad they just replace them with fake teeth on something like a wire retainer that is hardly noticeable. Ask your dentist! Hope this helps. Best wishes.
Reply:you would have to get fake teeth that look like real teeth.... people get them all the time if a permenent tooth falls out......
Reply:If they rot out of your head you could just gum everything like a hobo
Reply:fake teeth or real ones from a dead person i have herd of dentists doing that before
