Do you mean your top row of teeth were removed and now you have dentures instead?
How did this happen? What was wrong with your teeth? How does it make you feel to have dentures? Do you ever take them out and scare people with them?

What was it like having so many teeth out? Do they do them all at once? How long did it all take to heal?
(I have had two out separately, several years apart)

How long did you have to wait for the denture to be cast and made?
Did you go out much while the sockets were healing and, presumably, you couldn't put anything over them?

(I wouldn't let such a thing stop me from doing essentials, but although I'm not easily embarrassed, I have a feeling I wouldn't have gone anywhere fancy. I know someone with teeth in a bad state who talks in such a way that you almost never see teeth, but I don't think I could learn that quickly with a mouth that was sore anyway.)
