Our mom's teeth are beginning to have to be pulled because of forgetting to brush, floss, etc.... at 86 do we look at dentures, teeth that screw into planted posts or nothing???

, I would definitely have a conversation with her dentist to see their recommendations. Implants are a great idea, but the dentist should have a better idea of success rate in Alzheimer's patients. I do know with dentures, you need to be careful with them, because they get wrapped in napkins, buried under food, flushed - basically lost, and that can grow costly.
