Dear Liz: Thanks for the update and the advice. Glad things are
coming along so well! Have you been giving lectures or papers since
your dentures? How has it been speaking before an audience? Even
with my partial I always have water with me when I lecture so my
mouth does not get dry. All the best, CP --- In

I don't think people that meet me even know that I have dentures, I
think they just think I have nice teeth. I can eat anything. The
only think I have yet to be able to do is bite into things like a
piece of pizza or a hamburger. I still cut them up. But everyday
they are beginning to feel more and more like my real teeth but
better because they don't hurt. I go back in April for the final
dentures that will be my six month appt. So all in all I would say
I am doing very well. It takes getting used to so I would get your
work done over the summer so that you can learn to talk with them,
but it come quickly.
