So where do I start, had a nightmare time from start to well not even finished yet.
Had 10 top remaining teeth extracted by choice ( even longer story )
3 sessions 2 on first, the rest pulled but 2 canines snapped one above gum line other below, but immediate denture placed over them, yeah they were well in and dentist said they are special lol.
Back for final extraction of broken canines, which included surgical extraction, lots and I mean lots taken away, not scalpel for gums just in with the same tool for bone, anyway after pretty high up and getting close to cheekbone out they came.
Still I struggled with the denture which never fitted.
Had to take it out as was agony and allow bone and gum to ease.
Back for and adjustment and check of sockets now infected.
It still I tried to wear the very loose on one side denture.
Back again today and been told after only 1 month and the fact that the pallette is way of on the slipping side, as well as the borders ( gum line up to inner check ) is way way too short, both not giving proper suction and allowing slip and a denture that sits very far from level, I have been told it's hard reline time to put back material where it's short ??.
To say I am perplexed is an understatement, but also they want to charge me for a badly made new, one month old immediate denture hard reline.
Obviously there is a lot of missing material, before even the mention of a hard reline let alone soft, which I wouldn't do anyway. I would imagine a few adjustments for pain or sores are free but is a hard line free on a short on one side expected ?
I don't feel I should have to pay for a hard reline on a denture just one month old, not to mention I am surprised they even want to do that yet, granted I am booked for the reline in January which would then make it 3 months after, but it never fitted before my swelling went down or thereafter.
Any help is greatly appreciated folks.
