Andrea,
I don't know about dentures, but I had to have a crown placed before surgery, then ended up needing another crown and root canal on a front tooth after surgery. When the dentist told me, I just cried. I was so sick of people messing with my mouth! So, here is a hand to hold during your Boston Teeth Party, because I know you aren't looking forward to it.
How's your tongue doing? I think I had quit biting mine because I couldn't feel it about 3 months post op, but still got tired after talking a lot.
