I had a complete upper and lower set of dentures made about two years ago and I hate them. I have yet to eat a meal with them in my mouth and I struggle constantly with upper denture reflux; I gag all the time. They feel extremely unnatural and I cannot wear them for more than an hour or so at a time. I feel that the top denture plate seems very thick and uncomfortable. What options do I have and what precess do I follow to have enamel teeth implanted instead? Any information will be appreciated.

My father-in-law looked into this very thing nearly 10 years ago and having implants in place of his 'top plate only was $10,000.00!' Something none of us could afford for him.
If he did tops and bottoms it would be $20,000 or the price of a 'good used car' - and at the age of 83 he had to ask himself 'how much longer did he have to live' so, he didn't get them. Ralph died three years later at the age of 86. I imagine the implants would cost more now, good luck to you though!
My sister had a couple of implants recently. Each one cost $3000.00. One of them gets food caught underneath of it and the gum becomes infected.
