Final Dentist Appointment...

Today was the final dentist appointment and both, upper and lower dentures, would be put in. The appointment was at 3pm and I got there about 20 minutes early. So I thought I would have plenty of time to catch up on my social media. But that wasn't exactly true. They called me in right away and I only had to wait for about 5 minutes or so.
We put in upper and lower dentures. The upper onces were a prefect fit and they had already been perfect the day before. The lower dentures were a much better fit than the day before. But they still didn't fit perfectly. Took some adjustments at the dentures themself and a little grinding down of one thoot. where one of the metal brackets will be sitting. And it was a way better fit this time. Of course it feels weird. Not so much the upper dentures. They're fine and not that much different from the cosmetic fake tooth I used to have. The lower dentures are a different story. It just feels like you're having an aweful lot of metal in your mouth. According to the dentist it take quite some getting used to that. Can take up to 30 days. And yes it sounds weird hearing yourself talk with the dentures. And yes you do have to practice a lot of talking. Got thing that I love to have conversations with my dog. And I don't think I'm having that many problems talking, since those are only partial dentures.

Truth to be told it's going to take some getting used to talking especially with the lower dentures in, since they don't fit that tightly by nature as the upper ones. And this tooth replacement I am even supposed to wear during the night.
When I got home I had the dentures in for some time and they felt actually OK. Later that evening I tried my first meal with them. OK, it was a rather soft meal. And it worked somewhat OK. Still feels a little weird, but it's gonna take time to get used to it. Can take up to 30 days to fully get comfy with the dentures when eating meat. But so far it has been OK. The only thing that I'm not particularly fond of are the tiny bits of food under your dentures...that's just not much fun. But I guess that's a small price to pay considering that I was loosing my fillings every couple of years because of those missing molars.
