First I want to thank everyone who responded to my last post. It
means alot to me to have understanding, compassionate people in my
corner. I went to my regular dentists today to see about getting an
upper denture. It seems that the bridge I have on my front 6 teeth,(
there are only 3 teeth under it that support it ) is so loose, he's
afraid my teeth will come out when he goes to do impressions.
SO.........he wants me to get ALL of my upper teeth out and a week
later he'll start impressions. That means I'll be WITHOUT teeth for
about 6 weeks while the teeth are being made!! I thought I was going
to be able to get immediates..Besides that, the fear of having ALL my
teeth pulled out with hopefully an IV Sedation is freaking me out!
The oral surgeon says he isn't sure he'll be able to do the IV
Sedation on me, because he has to make sure he can find a good vein
to use..get that!
I'm a very heavy woman, and not sure if that has something to do with
it, but these guys have me scared out of my mind right now. I am
soooooo upset:-(
Besides some other upsetting things going on in my life, this takes
the cake..When it rains it pours.
Hugs to all,
Elise
