UPDATE ABOUT MY DENTAL IMPLANTS.

I GOT MY TEMPORARY LOWER DENTURE July 21 st and I have already had three adjustments done in less than a week. I have been having a very difficult time with this lower denture. I also feel a great deal of denture slipping, when trying to chew.
Before calling the doctor and making my third appointment, I spent the night crying and feeling depressed. I got up the next morning with a headache. Called the prosthodontist and there were three areas where pressure was relieved.

I still need to apply adhesive to the lower denture and the Prosthodontist does not want to do a soft reline at this time. He gave me a reason but I don’t remember.

He also said I need to call anytime if I am having pain or concerns or problems.

Well, this morning I was able to get the lower denture in my mouth but I still need the adhesive to keep it in place. I still have a pressure sore on the right side so, I guess I need to make another appointment.

I thought I was educated well prior to starting this dental treatment and I would not hesitate for one moment and not have this done. I just thought everything would fit well during the interim period.

I am also scheduled to start the prep work for crowns on my upper front teeth the end of next week

Oh, the implants are doing well. I was told the uncovering would be done sometime in October. I am thinking probably November. Learning not to believe everything I am told.I am still Trying to stay focussed on the end result. (Perfect smile)

It is raining today so I think I will download some relaxing music for my upcoming visit next week. I have a four hours visit planned for the prep crown work.
