Hello, New to the denture world here. I have been using both fixodent and ploygrip, not together...LOL anyway my question is what is the best way to get the stuff out of your mouth when you pull your teeth out? I have been using my finger to scrape it out , can be painful.. I have tried cloth and ti

I got my dentures in October and my mouth immediately started shrinking which caused my denture to be SO loose I couldn't wear them without a tremendous amount of adhesive which I hated! Found Denturefit online and after reading all the reviews decided to try and let me tell you this stuff is AMAZIN

All of the dentists I've spoken to want to put the dental plates in as soon as the teeth are pulled, but is it better to wait?? Have to have this done in the immediate future and very scared. Also am very skinny, really concerned about more weight loss due to not being able to eat!

Swelling is starting to go down and teeth are moving. I am almost 24 hours out so I will be removing them to rinse for the first time. Can I use a little adhesive to keep them still?

I had my upper teeth removed and my immediate denture installed, but as I'm looking at it, it is not symmetrical and the center is not aligned with my original lip to mouth skin. There are spots longer and wider than others and some straight and some bent into my gum area. You would think there wer

I am very self-concious and I don't want anyone including my husband to see me without my dentures. It has been very hard to manage this. I usually wait for him to fall asleep before I go to bed and luckily he gets up earlier than I do. This is disrupting any intimacy we may have. Can I sleep in my

Hi! I’m about to get dentures. I’m worried about what I can eat while on pain killers that first day. I get really nauseous if I don’t have something in my stomach, and I don’t think a smoothie is going to be keep me from keeping the pain killer down. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Maybe it's the holidays, but probably not since I had my upper teeth removed a week ago tomorrow. I cry everytime I see myself in a mirror and whenever my husband of 25yrs looks in my direction. I have an immediate denture here, but they didn't put it in after the extractions. I put it in the next

I'm only a month into my full set...so I try to remind myself I still dont have full "biting" ability. But, I feel like my dentures are soo dull, that they dont tear my food well at all. I'm simply relying on the strength of my sore jaw to 'pummel" my food. This is stuff that we would never think ab

I clean my dentures with Efferdent soak, and I brush them with or without toothpaste when I brush the nubs still left in my mouth. But I have seen black areas that look like something is growing between the denture and the liner.  Nothing I try seems to get rid of it.  The only thing I ha

All: I don't post that often, but periodically I observe something that I believe I should at least weigh in on. A couple of posts noted that some dentists essentially denied the utility of these online support groups. That is simply idiotic. If my dentist had done so, I would have found a new denti

I go in next Tuesday for my hard reline its been a long 4 months, im currently using Fixodent glue and I hate the glue really bad, I wish I didn't have to wear glue but they will fall out if I don't, any words of advice I've been reading everyone's post and am grateful knowing I'm not alone

Hello, everyone. I am a new denture wearer and it has become exhausting and depressing.  I am working with a great dentist who has given me temporary dentures until the healing, bone loss, etc has occurred but getting used to them is very frustrating.  Does the insane increase in salivati

So I've had top dentures for 6 years and just had my lowers done 4 days ago. I cannot shut mouth all the way and my jaw is propped open. They gave me a new upper immediate set as well as the lowers and when compared to my old permanent top plate they are huge. I need to know what I can do or what to

had all upper teeth removed 7 days ago and an immediate denture. Suction is great so far but front teeth are not set correctly being slightly left of midline (not quite Tom cruise but I feel not fat off) and left rear molar has an ‘underbite’ making it difficult to put teeth together without adjust

Hello Dentureliving Members! I am a university student and have to submit an ebook as an assignment. I am looking for cheap ebook writing services which can come in my budget. If you know any professionals then let me know in the comment section. Thanks in advance..

My dentures must have been made by a child in kindergarten. The wax try in were much better than the finished product and even they were too long in my mouth. I advised the assistant of this fact as well as the dentist. I am very unhappy with a product that I can not use toothpaste or denture cream

I got my teeth pulled the start of pandemic March 2020, I just got my dentures October 2021 my dentures are thick they fall out gag me and just no suction, they wouldn't suction at the office but the girl kept telling me to go drink water, has anyone experienced this?

Hello, pleased to meet everyone. :)So, I'm desperate. I need dentures.While Googling, I stumbled across Russell Klein on Etsy. He does by-order custom dentures.Great reviews. Great prices. On the surface, he seems legit.The problem is . . .There's an infamous company that does the EXACT SAME thing a

I had my remaining 6 top teeth pulled just over 3 weeks ago and had immediate top dentures put in. Now on the front of my top gums, just on the side where my two front teeth were, I have bone pressing out, just under the skin of my gums, against the dentures. There’s one on each side and they’re ab
