I do get the impression that the implants are the next best thing to
real. Do you find this to be true? I still have all my teeth (3 are
crowned though). If I live long enough that will change eventually. I
suppose people get used to dentures but it's a scary thought to me.

Also with dentures, you would go for years with missing teeth before
requiring a full denture unless you just get many good ones pulled too
all at once. Partials sound like a pain to deal with (and scary too).
The implants sound like a good alternative if you can afford them. At
least with implants you can get one at a time as a real tooth needs to
come out.
