I would make sure that you need them,and if you have been told by your dentist that he or she can't repairyour other taste then I would ask him or her to recomend a oral surgen one that he or she has worked with.
Oral surgeons are able to give outproducts that will relax you and when you are frozen he can remove the teeth with little or no struggle and make sure that the areas are nice and smooth for your dentist can go to work and it wont take long youll have a brand new smile.

Make sure you get the correct information and ask questions, lots of questions. If my dentist would have told me that there would be a problem with the lower dentures I would have kept some in the bottom. I have a hard time keeping the bottom ones in tact and so I have problems eating comfortably. Sure I got a better smile but I'm still depressed with the fact I have to wear dentures, especially when I see older people in their 70's and 80's who stil have their teeth and can eat almost everything. The only people who know I wear dentures are my immediate family. I feel ashamed that I have to wear them, is that right for me to feel that way? I need a support group where I can vent and get info that will make me feel better. Any suggestions?
