Denture and immediate denture post op instructions

[@chrisbarbour9533]

I don't understand my dad went in at 30 teeth pulled dentures in for 2 weeks went back and he skipped the same ditchers for the last 40 years he hadn't had any problems

I wish I knew then what I know now ,at the time I had enough money to get implants but my dentist didn't make that a option , I thought dentures were the best way to go the top is fine but nearly impossible to eat because the bottom will get loose and start floating no matter how much adhesive I put, and also they didn't make my bottom denture very well the front basically just sits on top doesn't even really wrap around my gums . It was a huge wast of money when I could have paid 1,000 more and got implants

I am currently going through denture decisions. I had what the office called a consultation, then went in for full x-rays. I was told at that time with insurance that my denture (upper only) would cost me nearly 2k and this was without immediate denture. Not much discussion on bone preservation. I go in for full extraction and shown cost of additional 4K for the bone preservation work, I elected to do only back two mohlers and two front eye teeth costing 2K. I was in pain for fifteen days from all this work. Because I also decided in advance that I didn't want an immediate denture and wanted to wait due to cost (just paying for a bad fitting denture). Being without teeth has been horrible. I wish now I'd had all my questions prior to the consult and taken better notes. I know in time though I'll have a beautiful and we'll fitting denture that should last quite along time, I pray. If you're just starting, take everything slow and have all questions answered during the consult. I was shown a new amount due of 365$ my last visit so now I have to go through all my paperwork, a new charge every visit it seems.

Sorry for 2 years later. But my single top denture would've came out to $15,000 if I paid out of pocket... I paid $39 😂

Yeah my dentist only gave me an appointment for 6 weeks after extraction, so now I'm frantically trying to find a doctor to look how things are
