Welcome Sheila, Making the decision to get a denture or dentures is hard. It sounds like you are doing what will be best for you. In addition to talking with...
But immediates are just that...they are immediates, not permanents so you can still have those same benefits as far as the wax model and seeing them first!...

Hi i am beginning to realize just what immediates are. i thought my dentist told me i only had to wait a couple of months to start making permanent ones. Oh my...
