I went for my first dentist appointment after my extractions yesterday. I have a new dentist as my previous one left He seems nice and was explaining things to me He checked my gums and said everything was healing well but I still have some puffiness so I have to go back in 3 weeks to see how things have improved As soon as they are they can take moulds and start the process which he said takes about 1 1/2 months with appointments every 2 weeks preparing for the dentures. He said I needed a small filling on one of the bottom teeth I have left. I did joke with him that after the extractions a small filling seemed fine. I must say it was nice to have an appointment where I had nothing invasive done I don’t know how I’ll get on with dentures but hopefully good after having to cope with having the majority of my teeth gone. I envy my daughter who had implants in Turkey. we went out there for 4 days and she came back with teeth then went back 3 months later for her finals so only had a couple of days without teeth but the price of implants is way out of my reach so no good thinking about that. All I ask is that my dentures will look ok and be comfortable so I can smile again
