Mine was when I was 43 - and at the same time, I discovered I still had a milk tooth!!

A few weeks ago I had my 4 front teeth out and couldnt eat properly for a few days so I know what you are going through.I had my dentures put in straight away and it was very sore for a few days. hope you are feeling better soon and the chocolate melting on the tongue sounds great to me.I thing I need some now.lol. :-D :-D

I had two teeth out in OCt cos they were so loose from bone loss they couldn't be saved, Had em splinted back in but was told was a temporary solution. One got so loose again that was silly . was given all the options BUT couldn't afford implants so reluctantly opted for the two teeth either side that were on a limited bone time and had em out and a denture for 3 teeth fitted . one tooth was crooked so they did a denture with three teeth to fit. It was agony, gave me ulcers etc and was so uncomfortable . have had it adjusted twice.

It has settled but still not that comfortable. am sorry it was done but had no option.

I realise now why mums teeth spent most of their life in a cup on the kitchen windowsill and only got put in for family wedding pics, she could eat very well with em out and wasn't our mum with em in cos they changed her facial contour

I had 2 wisdom teeth cut out of my gums before the grew through, the gums were then sewn up. This was when I was 16, at the local hospital.
The dentist was Dr Pullen - and he was yummy :-D
I had to starve for 12 hours beforehand. When I left he told me to only eat soft foods.

I was 16, ate like a horse and only weighed, at the most, 7 stone.
I was ravenous, and had a huge fry up.
:-D
Needless to say, a bit of bacon got caught under the stitches one side. It hadn'thurt until then :-(
Back I went, but while I was waiting for the inevitable telling off, the bacon came out :-\

YOU FEELING ANY BETTER

A FEW YEARS AGO I HAD FOUR WISDOM TEETH OUT
AT THE SAME TIME,BOY DID I HAVE A LOT OF BRUISING,

Who would believe it :-|

Gums are now healed enough for me to eat more solid foods. Am going out to lunch with my sisters.






Just brushed my remaining teeth & the cosmetic filling in one of my front teeth fell out :-0
I now lisp & need to keep my mouth firmly closed to hide the gap :-(

That's awful for you Carol ,but do hope you enjoy your lunch with your sisters

You can get temporary filling stuff from chemists. Recomended for holidays, weekends etc. My dentist used to laugh at me and my diy dentistry. Useful for cosmetic purposes lol. :-D :-D :-D

I would have thought the cost of dental treatment would have numbed everything. I am glad that you are feeling better. -jl
