[QUOTE="Star*, post: 416610, member: 4964"] I will let you know - we went for re-lines and they ended up telling DF they'd just make him a new set today. His gag reflex is so light - I think you even say spongy stuff in your mouth and he's ready to gag. They can't get the stuff in his mouth to try to make impressions so they're winging it - and his teeth are AWFUL. He came out disppointed, and angry, and gagging, drooling - and like I said this is the third set. I was furious - we've been at that place three freakin' days. Then he finally gets calmed down, and tried to get them in - and says same like you -HORSE teeth. Well YOU asked them to make them bigger. And whiter - They look nicer, more natural - and now? He can't get his mouth shut. I'm furious. Did they not check this before he left? He can't even eat lunch. I'm livid. Did they take the little carbon paper and check his bite? yes - Did they do anything else, did the dentist come in and check them? no. NO?? That's it! How many thousands did we spend there? We'll be first in line tomorrow morning. Then he says - "Well no now....let me give them a couple days like the assistant said to do." So my advice is what her advice was - give them a couple days to get used to. The brochure said the same thing - give them a chance. I don't have any advice other than that. I DO know you are supposed to be able to close your mouth though and have a normal bite. Either even, overshot, or underbite. I don't know how anyone eats with an even bite and dentures - but I suppose if that was your bite before it would be now. Hugs Hound - best of luck. [/QUOTE]
