Cosmetic Dentistry / Denture Problems
« on: October 12, 2012, 10:47:51 PM »
Hi, my mother who is 56 had 24 teeth pulled due to paradontel disease and had complete upper and lower dentures put in back in March 2012. She has been to the dentist many times for work on the dentures. She has had many problems with them not fitting correctly, rubbing sore spots, bite not right and still cannot eat with them. She hasnt been able to eat any solid/ semi-solid food since she has gotten them. She is very discouraged and depressed about them and doesnt know where to turn. Should she get a second opinion since her dentist says there is nothing he can do? Additionally, she has had excessive salive and when I say excessive I mean WAY excessive to the point of vomiting. Is this normal? Any help will be very much appreciated.
