waiting for teeth extraction and full dentures - worried

Posted: January 14, 2011 10:32 pm

Howdy,

Finally losing my teeth after a long-life of many chapters.  I am almost 60, in pretty good shape otherwise. Over the last ten years I quit all my bad habits, including smoking, in hopes of starting anew in my relationships.  While waiting to have my teeth extracted, I finally feel the fear of needing and getting dentures.

Any advice for the weary??

I just lost my uppers last week and I am only 33. I am getting used to them but am very pleased with them I had bad enamel on the uppers forcing them to go. I had them removed via local annithetic only and then an immidiate denture placed. I experianced very little pain and am recovering quickly. I was nervous and incredibally scared but my dentist was very helpful and experianced. Don't worry. I did and it was all for not. Just discuss options and prices. Then weigh your options express your fears with the dentist and get whatever you decide to do done. I have a beautiful smile now and am so happy with my new denture.
