I had all of my teeth pulled and same day dentures put in several months ago. My dentist had me keep them in for the first week then take them out for cleaning. My goal was to be able to eat an entire Thanksgiving dinner with no problems. It was a success. I was very determined from the get go and wasn't going to give up. My dentist is very impressed with my progress and said he wishes everyone had my determination and outlook. O probably take them out for an over night soak three times a week. Otherwise I take them out to cleanand put them back in. It just depends on my mood.

Hey I just read your post if somone think we are hidous without our natrual teeth then they aren't good enough to be with, as far as a husband he is going to think you are amazing no matter what. you need ppl close to you for support. Shoot I don't even have my full uppers and lowers but, my "female friend" is super excited for me to get my teeth fix
