Had all of my top Teeth Pulled Out!!

[Shermie]

The other day, I had all of my top teeth pulled out. That was Monday. My mouth (gums) are still sore. I have to eat soft food until they heal or when I get a full denture plate. The dentist told me that they all had to come out because they were no good. The bottom teeth were cleaned & they're ok. Hopefully, I'll have new teeth before or by my birthday in August! Should look like THIS again, hopefully!!!!

Ouch is right.
Hurts just thinking about it.
Partially because I have laser gum treatment coming up next week I'm dreading it.

QSis, thanks!!

Doc, I feel for you. Not sure if Novocain is needed, but believe it or not, it was the needle used to administer it. My jaw bone& the top of my mouth was hurting so bad from the tip of it touching those areas!!!! I was in excruciating pain!!!! And the pulling from the forceps was not even hurting!! He put in stitches on the left side.

I can't chew anything for a while because of the soreness. At least the bleeding had stopped two days later.

One tooth on the bottom right was also pulled because it was loose & no good!!!! I think that it was a wisdom tooth.

I’ve worked for a dentist and denturist. Gotta wait for the swelling to go down. You’re getting a full upper plate? Just expect to have sore spots and adjustments made once the plate is done. I’m happy for you! It’s hard but the smile is all worth it

Full upper plate. I'm waiting to get my Hollywood Smile back, but it might not be for a while!! Yeah, I'm quite sure that some adjustments might be in order.
