My teeth are not in good shape missing a lot of back teeth! Years ago a dentist once said to me I would never be able to wear dentures he said I could wear them socially but would not be able to eat with them......I was young and didn’t ask why. I have a few thoughts as to maybe why he would say that. 1. I have a high narrow pallet 2. Tounge thrust....that was caused by large tonsils/adenoids that were not addressed early and caused me to sleep with my mouth open.....I have read about tounge thrust and have worked on correcting it. The thoughts of going without teeth worries me daily I become obsessed with it. Has anyone not been able to wear their dentures? I won’t date or become involved with anyone because I would never want to explain this or expect anyone to deal with it. Thank you for any advice or feedback.
