I have to get an upper denture and because I have a very loose dental
bridge covering the front 6 teeth, my dentist feels it will come out
when he takes an impression for the denture. There for, he wants me
to get ALL my upper teeth out before he takes any impressions.
I had thought I could get both sides out first, then take the
impressions while I still had my 6 front teeth, and get them taken
out when the denture was made, so I wouldn't have to be toothless for
any long length of time.
I'm panicing here!! It's bad enough to have to go thru this at all,
but now the thought of being toothless is freaking me out!!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hugs,
Elise**
