Do dentures really make the face age very rapidly?

I am 36 and need a full upper denture. I consulted some implant specialists, but they were way out of my price range. I have been looking at different web pages and they talk about "facial atrophy" that the face will age rapidly due to the bone loss of extracting my teeth. In fact, two teeth I had pulled on left side about a year ago have shown a moderate bone loss. I am worried about premature aging of the face. Lots of people say they don't notice it on other denture wearers. Experts seem to say it will happen without a doubt, while my own dentists can't agree on the odds of my face aging rapidly with the new dentures. (It's a dental HMO, so I can't just up and change.) What do people think about this? Any dental professionals care to share their experiences?

when you remove teeth, the bone underneath will resorb. The majority of the decrease in bone height will happen within the first year of the extractions. After that, it will continue to resorb. When the bone resorbs, the dentures become loose. I've had multiple patients in their elderly years come to me with BAGS of dentures, asking me to make something fit. Without the teeth, the bone will continue to resorb. But typically most people will tolerate their upper denture as opposed to the lower denture. Yes, I said TOLERATE. They will never be like your real teeth. Always keep that in mind. If you need a Lower full denture, DEFINITELY consider getting implants. Most people do NOT tolerate their Lower denture. And just because this person or that person or that family member had success with dentures does not mean that you will. Dentures are a prosthetic device and must be individually fitted for you. In any case, if you lose bone or have difficulty retaining your dentures in the future, you can have painful (my father's experience) surgeries that replace the bone. They can harvest bone from your hip, your rib, or use bone from other sources (even synthetic bone!) to fill in what you lost. But I agree, a dentist can not determine who is going to lose their bone more so than the next patient. There are definitely factors that contribute to more resorbtion such as poor home care like leaving your denture in at night. could write more but got to go to work. Good luck.
