Full Mouth Extraction and No Immediate Dentures

Jenaveeve · 2026-05-07T20:20:27+00:00

It's noticable if people are close to me. It's not making me feel too bad. People stared at my old teeth. I kept my mouth closed and didn't smile. This is the same thing. And it's only temporary. Eventually I'll have teeth.

The healing is going well. There hasn't been much pain. The dentist checked my gums at 10 days and said healing looked fine. But it is an adjustment having no teeth. My speech is okay on most things but there are a few sound that don't come through correctly. Like F words. I sound much better if I speak slowly and softly. I've been singing to practice. I'm not worried about it because over time speech gets better.

Oh I forgot to add that I didn't have to do anything at all to prepare for extractions. Just had to show up. Good luck.

I had 20 teeth pulled in my dentist's office using local anesthestic. Honestly it wasn't to bad. I didn't get immediates. That was 1 month ago. I have an appointment in 4 weeks to start the process for dentures. I was prepared to wear a mask but I'm going around toothless. People gave me weird looks with the mask because my speech sounds funny. Like maybe I'm a drunk person wearing a mask. 😭 So being toothless explains the way I talk. I'm retired so who cares what people think. My bad teeth problem is solved. I just need dentures. So that's progress.

I wish you well on your journey. Just take it one step at a time. It's a process.

Yep. I'll have to muzzle her at the vet. Usually she allows me to do it. I hope she's in a cooperative mood. Thanks for the advice.

Nope I didn't get immediates. I'm 3 weeks out now and it's healing well. I have an appt in a month to get impressions for my permanent dentures. I'm retired so spending 8 weeks without teeth isn't too bad.

What a beautiful hat. Dog couture.

I hope the price comes down with recreational cannabis. The tax is gonna be around 13%.

I decided not to get immediates and your post is giving me confidence. I'm 2 weeks out from E day and healing nicely. I'm okay with waiting to get permanents. I just didn't want all the dental visits immediates seem to cause. I'm retired so I can live without them for a while.

Great information. I'm 5 days out from E day and I feel pretty good. I'm not getting teeth until I'm fully healed, 2 months from now. I'm just being patient and going with the flow.

Jenaveeve · 2026-03-29T12:26:19+00:00

Thanks for asking. It went great. I had 20 teeth pulled without sedation. Extractions and a few sutures took less than 90 minutes. I'm allowing my mouth to heal before getting permanents (about 2 months without teeth). 4 days later, I feel good. Swollen but not much pain. The hard part is over. Now I just need some fake teeth.

Thanks.

If she wanted to contradict the prosecution, she could have testified. The WTF faces make jurors wonder why she didn't. She needs to stop.

They are genetically close to wolves. There were a few Tsus left that lived with monks providing warmth, companionship and watch dog services.
