I made it through the appointment! I was anxious, teary eyed, and just a wreck but I warned them. The assistant was so nice. She didn't believe me when I told her it was time for everything to go. Being 25 and needing dentures isn't very common and thanks to "awesome" genetics (not really) i got to be the lucky girl with the train wreck, rotting mouth to convince her otherwise. The dentist came in, did the exam and wasn't even phased by the damage going on. She was extremely understanding and worked with me to make a plan of action. December 16 will be the 1st of 3 extraction appointments. Taking all the back bottom teeth (what's left of them anyway) and then I will return in a few weeks to do impressions for my lower and upper dentures. Once the lab makes them the second possibly third extraction appointments will happen. I feel such relief finally going through with this! I finally have a light at the end of the tunnel and know I will be OK and healthy after all of this!
