Yes, Suez, I had all my teeth pulled at the advice of my radiologist. She wanted me to wait at LEAST a year before getting dentures, but I ignored her and got dentures just so I could go out in public. But I really can't wear them very long or eat with them very well. I just wear them to go to bingo or whatever and take them out when I get home because she was probably right and my gums won't really be ready for dentures until January - I finished treatment last January. So I wouldn't really suggest hurrying like I did 'cause it's not working for me. Thank goodness I did get a dentist who will make adjustments for me for a year free of charge so hopefully they'll be okay some day.
