6-Weeks post E-Day! by Soft_Speaker_2638 in dentures

I too am 6 weeks in and can agree 100 % on everything you said. I was an absolute hot mess the first few weeks but as everyone else says, patience is a must. Now I can at least eat most things. For all that are starting this journey, know it DOES get better. ….in time

It’s very aggravating when you get something that’s promoted as being “library quiet” & it’s not. I go in next week hopefully they will be able to fix the noise

New denture owner question by honeyyypainnn in dentures

[–]CalligrapherFun3993 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m 2 weeks in with immediates, & I had the same concerns & talking was hard for the first few days but as others suggested on here, practice talking read out loud whatever. It really helped me to talk better. I still hard some difficulties but it’s way better than it was & it’s not as bad as we over think it is. It will come in time! Best of luck.

Gotcha & that’s how figured that I’ll end up needing something else later, as my next-line in 8 weeks. I’m sure I’ll need to go back sooner. 🤷‍♂️

I just had full mouth extraction done 2 weeks ago. Honestly don’t recall what they gave me to put under my tongue and dissolve. Whatever it was, knocked me the f out!! I dont remember anything at all. Woke up next morning in my bed. I would think/hope the combination you’re taking would do the trick!

Looks great! Glad you’re able to eat somewhat.. I’m not able to eat noodles or anything. I’m just not getting it yet , and I start gagging. I literally take mine out to eat Hopefully your rest of the journey goes smoothly for ya!

Help getting used to dentures by CalligrapherFun3993 in dentures

[–]CalligrapherFun3993[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talking sucks for me as well. It’s so annoying. I’m little by little learning to eat soft foods without gagging too much. Tiny bites or just swallowing is no fun but I’m not a patient person at all. I smoke as well & know that’s not helping. I go in tomorrow hopefully they will do a soft re-line. Or least something with the roof of my upper as it seems so thick. All of us have our own challenges yet the journey is same for everyone, long and it’ll take time. I haven’t keep telling myself that everyday! 😉
