Is your prosthodontist used to working with cancer patients? Dentures that do not fit do not sound like they were made properly. I had all 16 of my rear teeeth removed and wear two partials made by a marvelous prosthodontist in Princeton, NJ, who specializes in complicated cancer patient cases. I will email you his name and number.
Take care, Eileen
