The only other way to keep then in would be to get two implants into your jaw. They will contect to the denture to hold them in while you need them in. Then you can pop them out at night to clean them...Good Luck

A couple of mini implants with magnets can be used to anchor the bottom denture. They are not nearly as expensive as the regular ones. The bottom denture is hard for anyone to wear.
Click on your state to find a dentist and average cost. Dot in "mini implant" because there are less of them.

The only person that can answer your question is YOU !
You have fully described the problem.
You have outlined the pros and cons.
The answer is right in front of you. It's decision time bro !
So what is it going to be, the normal suggested maximum cups of coffee a day as suggested by health officials (3) or the continuing of health threatening multi cups all day long?
It's your body, it's your health, it's your future !
And NONE of here on our computers can make you do ANYTHING !
And by the way, your dentist or denturist may be of some help too.
