Yes, I did switch dentist, I am trying to stay postive as I will have a smile to
be proud of again. I am worried about gagging on it, that was the hardest with
my partial. I am also worried that i will not be able to eat foods I use to.
Well I will let everyone know how it is after i get them .

My experience with partials is that, if you can do without them, you are
likely to find that you prefer to.
If you have a full denture, that is what you have, and you can't fake it.
You tolerate it.
If you have a positive attitude going in, about how much more comfortable
your life is going to be, about how much better you are going to look, and
about how you are likely to find yourself healthier, you will do better.
Try to be involved in the creation of your denture. (if you didn't like
your partial, I hope you are with a different dentist now) Try to have some
input in the look of the denture.
Above all, stay positive!
Oh, yes! Be active on this list. It is a lifesaver!
Good luck. Keep us informed
