pull out all of my teeth if it bother's me that much to go for anything to be done? I have good teeth but gum disease and alot of bone loss. Had surgery 30years ago and now the root's on most of my teeth are exposed and I find this most unpleasant. Well would ya?I really have a deep/strong phobia when it comes to dentistry.

Depends on the dentist. My dentist would if that was what you wanted, but remember you are trading one problem for another. Dentures are different for every person. Some have few complaints, but most hate dentures. But in cases of severe perio disease, this is probably the only option.

most dentists are in the bussiness to save teeth therefore unless you have mobile teeth in all 4 quadrants due to periodontal disease (bone loss) it might be hard to find someone willing to pull savable teeth. a full set of radiograhs Are required to due such a diagnosis and or extractions so start there and get some opinions on the prognosis for the future.

You could ask your dentist. Maybe it's worth it for you to yank em all out and get a set of nice dentures. Only your dentist can know

It is possible, but expensive to have dentures or permanent replacements.
