What is the best glue for dentures?
Unless you got an immediate dentures (denture fabricated before extractions), you should not need any denture adhesive (glue). In case you want to use something, there are many good products on the market and they work the same. READ MORE

What are the alternatives to a dental implant?
As long as you have teeth adjacent to the missing tooth and they are in good condition, you can accomplish the replacement with a fixed bridge. The biggest disadvantage of this procedure is that both adjacent teeth have to be prepared (ground down) and also it will not last as long as implant crown and it will have to be replaced. READ MORE
Does a gum infection need treatment?
Absolutely you need treatment. READ MORE
