Had my last 20 teeth pulled yesterday and yes my mouth and jaw hurt. Also don't feel well from that. So if I am cranky that is why.

I had 22 teeth pulled in 2005, one of the best things to ever happen. After I recovered, I have had no issues. Have had some adjusting to learn with dentures but 15 years later still ticking.

Just don't sit on your dentures. You don't want to bite yourself . . .

Of course, one time on the national news there was a report of a woman with bite marks on her backside. Her husband's dentures fell out during the night . . .

Ouch.

I have pondered yanking my last. I was none too bright as a youth. Didn't take care of them.
I have no lower molars. It's been so long since I experienced the sensation of 'chewing' I forget what it feels like.

But cost tends to make it impossible for me.

Why do we let dental be different than the rest of the body?
I can get free surgery for anything else, but not teeth.

A lot of medical problems are because of dental/oral health problems.

Some dental/oral problems are partly because of other health problems.

I spent so much money on my teeth.
Told the wife"You tell mortician I want my
mouth sewn open when I am in the casket!"

I want to go out with a big smile, it cost me enough!

Many people in my area had their dentures made at a dentist college and it saved them a lot of money.

My dentist left his practice here in the town where I live to work at a dentist office in a metropolitan area that did charitable work. I don't know if a dentist's office like that exists near you or if you would be eligible, but I thought I would mention it just in case.

Good luck!

Not sure about dentures but about 60 miles away is a free clinic for dentist work.

After your dentures are made it is usually necessary to go in to have them fitted. Whoever sold you the dentures should offer a certain number of fitting visits for free; more than that will cost you or your insurance company "X" amount of dollars, which could get expensive. My dentist gave me unlimited free fittings for as long as I needed them. I suggest purchasing your dentures from someone who offers the same.
