I have read this every day with bated breath, I am exhausted just from reading this. I am so pleased that you have got yourself out of pain and away from the idiot dentists that put you through this. I would have made the same decision that you made under these circumstances. I had a partial a while back at the lower front of my mouth and I have read on here that the bottom is a nightmare. I was really impressed with mine, I expected the worst from it but it was comfortable once I got the sore spots sorted which took a few appointments as they keep coming in different places. The dentist very easily removes the bit that is causing them from the plate. I could talk and eat as normal which surprised me too. I only had mine for 6 months while I healed before having a bridge put on to cover the gap. Sorry for mentioning the B word but some do work. I do sometimes get a bit of sensitivity and your thread had me wondering if I will have problems somewhere down the line. If I do I have decided that I will not go through what you have, I will just have it removed and live with a partial denture.
I do have two other bridges, one is over thirty years old, the other is a few years old, they have been okay so far and time will tell how much longer I have with them.
I wish you good luck and I hope you get your denture, and that your new dentist is good and looks after you properly.
All the best to you
