That depends on type of corrections made related to your teeth. In some cases you need to wear it for longer than 6 months. So please ask you orthodontist as he/ she would advise you best on that.

Permanent denture would mean an implant if you want it fixed. Or removable one. Kindly visit nearby dentist to get the overall cost of the denture.

Removable complete dentures can be made using different acrylic material qualities and different teeth set qualities so the cost may vary.
Also you can get implant supported overdentures which are better than normal dentures as the denture is tightly held to the jaw with the help of 2 or more implants and patients can better bite and chew with it.
You can personal consult me for more details.

Ask a nearby dentist if he can arrange a lab technician to make an impression of your mother's oral cavity. He can visit 2-3 times as a part of denture fabrication. Later when final denture will be fabricated the technician can fit it in her mouth. You have to arrange at least one visit to the dentist for evaluation of fitting of the denture. See if dentist himself can visit at home if your mother is unable to walk.

The teeth in better quality dentures don't deteriorate fast as compared to the lower grade. There is no difference in the functioning of both. The sooner the attrition of teeth take place the sooner you may have to opt fr changing of your denture. So discuss with your doc and den decide.

Go for it. In this age of 80 years, we don't prescribe costly treatments such as implant supported dentures and it is not compatible too. I assume your remaining teeth are also at the verge of extraction, if so, let it be removed completely and fabricate denture. If there are some useful tooth, partial denture or bridges can be fabricated.

The “blue” or often times “grey” appearance of a stain under or at the edge of a crown usually indicates microleakage or bacteria/decay that has seeped under the edges of the crown. You really should have it replaced before it extends further underneath the crown.
If there was a root canal on that tooth, the discoloration along the gum could be the root discoloration from an old root canal which is absolutely normal. The discoloration can also be due to the metal showing through the ...more
