I've had full dentures since I was 27. (I'm 75). I have never regretted it. My first set was from one of those billboard advertisers and, I now realize, fit "ok" and I wore them for 18 years. When they finally wore out I went to a good orthodontist and found out how dentures SHOULD feel. I replaced them after 13 years and am still delighted. Other than a sore spot now and then, I've never had any trouble with them and I've never used adhesives. I only take them out to clean them, so I wear them pretty much 24 hours a day. My dentist says I should take them out more, but...I don't. I know I've been lucky, but the whole thing CAN be a good experience, so good luck to anyone about to embark!

On December 22, 2023 I had my remaining 6 top teeth removed and immediate top denture put in. I wore them 24 hours a day until the 26th(dentist was gone due to holiday. No problem talking with them in, very little swelling lots of pain. Lots of mashed potatoes. Any way, the dentist told me to leave them out unless we were going out somewhere. Finally woke up this morning the sore spots are almost gone. Going to start eating(or try to) regular food this weekend. I love my dentist and trust his advice. He's now working to save my lower 13 teeth and and getting partials for the bottom. Thank you for this video. It's the best one I've watched.

Thank you Marie Elena, I had most of my teeth extracted three days ago and have had dentures made for immediate fit. Though I realise it’s just one of life’s things, I’m lamenting the fact that, as a very young 60 yo, I no longer have a mouth full of my own teeth. Your words have helped me a lot in dealing with my esteem issues, and much of your other advice has been very helpful also. Best wishes to you, and thanks for sharing on your not-so-crappy-as-you-think channel. 👍 Bruce, Canberra, Australia.

You really helped me with being more comfortable with the process. I'm having one more tooth extracted Tuesday. After that, I have a decision to make about going forward. I'm sorry I didn't catch the reason why a young needs a denture. But I'll listen again. I'm enjoying hearing your process. It's a big scary decision. Thank you for your honesty and I'm gonna look for your other videos. Great job!

I am 66 yrs old and am about to get my dentures.

So it was so wonderful to run across your video. It calmed a lot of my anxiety and gave me hope. So - thank you for that! P.S. You DO have a beautiful smile!

The best feeling is to not have to think or worry about smiling. I used to have beautiful teeth until my gums & bone loss began to really be evident. The past 5 years I have hidden mostly. I am a soap maker and I do markets so it was really difficult to show up and feel confident. I’m day 5 post op and immediate dentures and though I’m sore and feeling unsure sometimes …I know that time will pass and I will get used to this. I already want to show the world my smile again and I am grateful as I know that hiding myself hadn’t been good for my livelihood. Im really good at my job and now I can really show up with a bright smile to go with the confidence in my products.

I had 22 teeth extracted in one hour due to complications arising from diabetes. My dentist advised me to go 'toothless' for 3 months for an even heal gum-line and as frustrating as it was, it worked out for me. I now have a full set of dentures that more or less fit OK and will get better in time. I no longer dribble when I drink. My pronunciation of certain letters is slowly changing, but I find eating a bit of a challenge, opting to sometimes remove my dentures and manage without. Thank you for your advice, I found your upload very helpful and will use it daily to continue my journey with dentures 👌🏻🇬🇧

I had full extractions at the end of January and chose to not get immediate dentures. I wanted to heal properly before putting dentures in, and I definitely don't regret it! I figured since we have to wear masks right now anyways nobody would even notice :) I finally got my full set last week and tonight I am finally brave enough to try and eat something lol! Fingers crossed, its kind of scary at this point! But your video definitely made me feel better about everything, so thank you!!

Where were you when I began my process!! Oh yeah- right here!! Lol! I had my last 19 teeth removed in March of 2022 buy didn't get any dentures at all until August of 2022! I had no idea it would take that long and every time I tried to ask my dentist questions she(and her staff) acted like it was all a secret they couldn't share! I learned how to eat and speak again without any teeth. Then when I finally got my dentures I had to relearn all over again! In fact to this day I have not been able to eat at all with them. I can drink with a straw but thats about all I can do and I've had them for 8 months now. I tried to swallow a small pill one time and almost choked to death! I am very thankful you've put this information on YT! I just wish I had of found you sooner!! Thank you!

I’ve been trying to force myself to be appreciative because I don’t like to complain or be so negative but I’ve dreamed for so long to have my smile back!

@@trindatrejo7332 I'm sorry. You can remove your dentures to give your gums a break. Use Orajel, Ibuprofen for swelling and pain (if you are allowed to take), remove your dentures to stop the friction, and yes, 1 tsp salt to a glass of water to reduce friction. Also, try popsicles without your dentures. Did you irritate your gums with maybe a piece of food while eating? Is this because you have pressure or friction from the denture itself? In this case, take them out and let your gums rest. Unless there are adjustments to be made, gums should heal in about 7 - 10 days. Make sure you keep them clean and soak them at night. Best of luck

Thank you ! Omg! I had my teeth removed 2 weeks ago and still so sore… I’m not getting temporaries, next week I go for impressions. Oh the shame, guilt, depression was debilitating until I found you and that gorgeous smile! You, my new friend, have made such a huge difference. I sincerely thank you for your honesty. I’ve told maybe 2 people about this ( who else could be thankful for this darn mask mandate) because I felt ashamed like I did something wrong. It’s the stigma I guess. Honestly, I haven’t felt this hopeful since this process started. A million thanks!

I can relate to your testimony as I am going back in a couple of days for my new dentures. I’m asking you if you use an adhesive, if so, what works best? I’m having trouble with the adhesive leaking into my mouth through out the day. I’m a hairdresser and I do a lot of color. I have to wear gloves. Sometimes it’ll form a white crust on my lips😮. It’s embarrassing as I can’t touch my mouth because of the color on my gloves🙄. I’ve tried everything out there on the market to no avail 😢 I do look at KZfaq to see what other denture wearers like best. Please help me find one that really works. Thank you honey. From Darcy in New Orleans 😘

I wish I had seen this video before I got my dentures! This would have helped me so much as I knew nothing about what to expect & it was torture! The pain! The lisp! The eating struggles (of course I barely ate anything & didn't lose any weight, while my husband lost 12 pounds just watching me starve to death - this is not a joke - he really lost 12 pounds!). 3 months in & I'm still struggling with the bottoms being loose & bouncing up & down in the back, but every day things are getting easier. Still can't eat burritos or chew meat, but at least I can eat most things again! Thanks for this video! It helps me feel that what I'm going through is the same as everybody else! :)

Hi Marie, great video. In the future I will be getting dentures and I am extremely nervous about it!!! For one thing, I am battling a stigma in my mind that dentures are for older people. I know that's not true because I've seen teenagers with dentures but I'm still fighting that stigma. I also worry that I won't be able to wear dentures due to a gag reflex I have. And even if I get use to them, I'm also bummed about possibly having to give up some of my favorite foods. So I've been on an emotional roller-coaster for the last few weeks you might say!

@Bossmanrocks 7 ай бұрын

I might have to get full dentures soon too but also have a terrible gag reflex. It stopped me from wearing a retainer after I had my braces out as a kid. I just couldn't deal with all that stuff in my mouth. Can I ask how you are doing now? Did you have it done and how is wearing dentures now?

@accordingtodoug6320 7 ай бұрын

@@Bossmanrocks After going through a lot of feelings, I held my nose, took the plunge, and got full dentures. It's been a long journey with a lot of emotions but looking back, I can honestly say that it was one of the best decisions of my life! I've had my permanents now for about 6 months and they fit wonderfully with no gag reflex. Before that, I had temps for about 9 months, took a little longer with them because I wanted to make sure my gums were done shrinking. I'm so glad I waited because now I have a pretty good fit with my permanents! One thing that really helped me decide is, I told my dentist about my concerns with my gag reflex. He was examining my mouth and he put his finger on the roof of my throat approximately the depth of where my upper plate would go, and he ask me how that felt? I didn't feel the urge to gag whatsoever! Now if you are going to get temps, they will make your mouth feel full because it's a foreign object in your mouth. I had braces too, so I fully understand. It took me about 2-3 weeks to adjust to my temps and I put myself on a smooth diet, so it didn't feel like I was going to choke. It was rough at times but now with my permanents, I can eat like I used to. I couldn't have made it through this experience without God and my loving wife. If you would like any more information, I'm happy to help. 😀

I had root canals and crowns for over 50 years. I had all my teeth extracted a month ago and implants for 6 on one for top and bottom. I was unable to wear my temps because of swelling. I went back for my temp dentures and they didn't fit. I tried. Ended up getting temps to fit my gums now. I developed bone spurs on both the top and bottom. 2 days in with my new temps. Have not tried to eat yet. Still on medical mouth wash so I can wear the temps. Thank you for your video.

For me, it's been a major struggle. My dentures have never felt right. I've gone back to my dentist MANY times (she's very nice too) & adjusted it a couple of times, but they still bother me. I have cancer & my whole body is very sensitive ( a lot of pain too) so it's difficult to know what is normal or not. I know, I don't feel as happy as you do or comfortable with them. It's difficult to chew too, which has caused some digestive issues. I didn't get the bottom done yet even though it needs it. My dentist doesn't think I could handle both top & bottom yet. She said it's more difficult with the bottom, but I don't like all the plastic under my palate on the top. I hate them really...SIGH....glad you're happy with yours...

I had to have all my teeth pulled because of a brain aneurysm that damaged the nerves to my teeth and I kept a toothache almost all the time even though I only had 1 bad tooth, the hardest thing to learn about dentures is that they are not teeth, they are a tool and you have to learn how to use them just like using any other tool, don't be afraid to try different things until you find what works the best for you, don't give up, it will get easier and you will find what you're looking for. Good Luck and I'll tell you what works for me is asking the Lord for help 🙏🙏

I waited until my gums were healed triple X!! I already had a top partial to which, over the years I added a couple of teeth using tempt tooth. And I just used that until I was well healed probably six months after and then I used a company wear in you do it over the mail and they send you the impressions and all of that. No more dentist.
