This can lead to weakened bones, increased risk of fractures, and conditions like osteoporosis or Paget's disease.

Did George Washington have false teeth made out of gold lead and ivory?

When George Washington was inaugurated for his first term as president in 1789, he had only one natural tooth remaining and was wearing his first full set of dentures made by John Greenwood. Previously he had had partial dentures which were held in place by hooking them around the remaining teeth. The Greenwood dentures had a base of hippopotamus ivory carved to fit the gums. The upper denture had ivory teeth and the lower plate consisted of eight human teeth fastened by gold pivots that screwed into the base. The set was secured in his mouth by spiral springs.http://www.americanrevolution.org/dental.html

My dentist lead me to believe I NEEDED upper implants due to bone thinness to support denture isn't that misleading?

Not necessarily. Maybe he didn't want to give you dentures if he knew they wouldn't fit right or be supported without implants. Have you had dentures before? Did you go in to his office and complain about how dentures never fit you? Implants may be the best solution and he may not want to give you a set of dentures that he knows you will be unhappy with.

Why did your dentures split in half?

Dentures can split in half due to a variety of reasons, including normal wear and tear, exposure to excessive heat or pressure, or a manufacturing defect. Over time, the materials can weaken, especially if not properly maintained. Additionally, accidents or dropping the dentures can lead to fractures. Regular check-ups with a dental professional can help identify issues before they lead to damage.
