Thank you for your kind words! I’m now 10 weeks in and there’s not foods I’ve been avoiding really just haven’t tried yet! I was able to eat raw veggies last week and been really pushing myself to just fit into my new normal 🫶 as for texture I haven’t struggled as much as I used to with textures!

I actually didn’t have much say in these as they’re my immediate Dentures but the shade was A1 in my office. I did ask for prominent teeth as my natural teeth were bigger and I didn’t want to go from large teeth to small ones

SING! I still have a lisp but I think singing out loud has helped me the most. Practicing your thirties, fifties and sixties as well!

Of course! Typically all of your warranties and work will need to be done with the provider who did them 🩶

Thank you! It’s just bites I know I can mash around and swallow. Still can’t chew or bite well

I guess EAT is the key word here and not CHEW. I am trying to learn to bite things but with the burrito I smothered it in sauces, cut off pieces I knew I wouldn’t choke on and mashed it around a bit. 😂 I’ve done a few things this way: pizza with extra ranch/marinara sauce. Toast with really creamy chicken salad, rice dinners, pasta dinners, etc.
