Dr. Mike thank you for your information.I met with my dentist to discuss my options. He has spoke to the Oral Surgeon in regards to dentures. To my surpise he is going to have dentures made for me to wear right after my extrations at no cost. they will be full dentures not temporary. He stated that I will beable to wear them for maybe 6 months and then need to have another set made. But he has found a few people due rather well with their first set. So it is a wait and see.
