Guest guest Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Karyn, The fun six months ago was full extraction of all of my upper teeth, well, those remaining, that is! I think they took out 11 at one time.....and then upper dentures were installed. This time it was the two front lower teeth. We were hoping to save all the lower teeth, but those two just kept losing more and more bone to the point where they had already begun to separate and were loose to the touch or my tongue. It was just a matter of me biting into the next sandwich or chewy roll, and they would have come out on their own..... I was afraid I'd be out eating somewhere in public and have that happen. My upper dentures are fitting well and causing no problems thus far. I forget that I even have them most times. Hopefully once they get the permanent work done on these two lower teeth, and put in two crown on two of the others that kicked up this year, I'll be done with all of this dental drama for a long, long time. That's my hope, anyway. With love, hope and prayers, Heidi Heidi H.
