Re: A bit of a story from a new group member

Make sure you keep going in for your relines, as the swelling goes
down they have to be adjusted. When I had mine done, I ended up
going toothless for about a year (bad dentist) I wasn't told to come
back for relines. Finally in tears I went to a denturist up the road
from my house and he took me in that day and fixed them. I haven't
had any problems since. I don't have to use any adhesive at all.

Oh and by the way, I had all my teeth pulled I think about 20 in
total, when I was only 27. I had very bad teeth, and once I had them
properly lined I have been so happy with them.
