I've got a denture and it feels horrible - like a big lump of chewing gum behind my upper front teeth. I have to keep taking it out to remove the debris behind it and over the weeks the fit is getting looser.
I have only had it in for about 6-7 weeks and when the gums settled down from the extraction, my dentist is going to have a chat to see what I want to do next. The two missing teeth are the eye tooth and the one behind it.
The rest of my teeth are fine. No probs with gums or teeth.
Would like to hear of any experience of implants - if they would be ideal and long lasting, what could go wrong, and how do I shop around for a good dentist and a good price. My dentist doesnt do it but would refer me. He reckons around £2grand each!! Thats a huge amount so am wondering where I can get it done for less or if there is an alternative to the denture?
