The problem with the removable dentures is that we have to work on the Gum and bone structure that is remaining and if that is not healthy enough, an extremely perfect denture cannot be expected. You can always take a second opinion and should preferably contact a prosthodontist for this work. And the best alternative would be to go for implant supported dentures or a full mouth rehabilitation using implants which will give definitely predictable results.
