Hi Mary! I also am Mary and I am brand new to the world of dentures. I, like you, had all my top teeth pulled and the denture put in before leaving the surgeons office. I have very little patience so I think I should be able to eat anything now. I'm trying to be more realistic, but I sure would like to know how long it takes to get to eating solid food comfortably. Can you shed some light for me? I have a twin sister who has had her dentures (top and bottom) for several years now and she never wears them. I can't even think about not having teeth in my mouth! Do you use adhesives to hold your denture, or does it fit well on it's own? I still have stitches under mine, so I don't want to use anything. I just wonder if it ends up being a good idea. Most importantly, I really want to know when I can eat again! I can't wait to chew!!!
Thanks!
Mary
