r/dentures

Today is day 5 after my full extraction. They put my immediates in (they’re beautiful!) and told me to take them out after 48 hours to heal and then just wear them during the day. So I did what he said but I’ve been having troubles getting them back in. My gums just bleed and tear and the dentures have torn stitches out. So I’m thinking I just need to leave them out to finish healing rather than causing more trauma to my gums. I’m going to call my dentist tomorrow but I had a family emergency and I’m out of town until Thursday.

Does anyone have any advice?
Thank you!

I have tried adhesives, nothing worked. I started using powder today and that hasn't worked either. I'm at my wits end. I feel like I wasted thousands of dollars for teeth that won't stay in my mouth. Solutions? Thoughts?

It also doesn't help that I'm a hypochondriac and I have no patience for anything health related. If something doesn't work the first time, I immediately want to move on to the next thing.

I am on medicare, which isn't much help in the dental department and my husband has been out of work for 7 months. While i was sick my dentures were accidentally thrown away. I cannot afford a new set from the dentist but i also can't afford to pay $30 for another set of teeth of lower quality than gumball machine Bubba teeth. What i need to know if there are any of the ones online that are legit, reasonably priced and functional so i can eat sold food?

Getting my immediates this Friday. I haven’t purchased a thing yet. Tell me your tips and what I should buy to prepare!

I have full mouth implants four pins upper and lower. The post are fine, What is not fine is the
Constant breaking after they tip and bottom installed the
Top broke a large sharp break, my dentist procrastinated with the fix
Come to find out the lab he was using lost all my files and impressions this was end of 2024. It took till Feb 2025 to get new upper Later in 2025 the bottom broke same lab had to wait the fit.
My concern is cost and honesty
I have been informed that I have to pay upwards of another 10k to 20k to upgrade
The material used by his lab are cheap…
So I have an appointment with
Resident Prosthodontic Georgia Dental college they have a on site lad. And I am worried if this a good place to consider the denture fix and upgrade. Have not been given a cost yet

I’m getting dentures in the next few weeks but need to make a decision for the bottom. The dentist said I have 2 bottom teeth that may be saved but he’s not sure how long they’ll last. Would you bother trying to save them or just get it all done?

I’m 47, I went in for a routine appt and the dentist decided I needed to have a full extraction. I was on state Medicaid due to being laid off, and had the full extract 6/25, before the state fiscal year updated. 3 months later I got way too big dentures and I just got them 2 days ago and they fit much better. Any advice on keeping them in? This it’s so hard I can’t eat, talking is so hard.. I appreciate any help!!!
