I'm in my 30's and about to go through with the entire thing in a week and a half and I'm somewhere between scared shitless and depressed. I'm haven't watched these yet but I'm already thankful that they exist. Thank you for taking the time to post them. Wish me luck 😬
Good luck sweetheart! It’s really not as bad as we tend to make it out to be. I thought the worst even after watching every video that existed. Maybe I got lucky, but it’s still not that bad. You’re allowed to be scared. Try seeing it as a gift, and it helps with depression. It was the best decision I could have made. You’ll do great!!! Pls keep me updated.

Is best to save up for implants or mini implants. Dentures can hurt as the gum starts to move out of place.
I just got the firsts process done now my depression has hit a high level! I am not feeling the confidents. The foods I can’t eat anymore until I’ve gotten my permanent. Which they are telling me six month wait. God I feel like I shouldn’t have done it. But more the dental company is going to really dictate how you feel about the big change. The Dental Company I went with I feel something isn’t right. I stay in pain with the dentures! They hurt and I can even eat with them. It’s so painful to wear them. I don’t think I chose the best Company. It’s a bad experience.
I'm 58 and spent thousands on caps in '02 because I have naturally bad teeth. Now the teeth are rotting underneath and caps/bridges breaking. I have an upcoming appt. for dentures. I want you to know this video helped me a lot. Thank you for posting it.
Sorry, this is a long comment-I came across your video because I've been researching what I'm in for. I have a couple of autoimmune diseases called Guillian Barre Syndrome and Myasthenia Gravis. My teeth literally were crumbling before my eyes. I use to have very healthy teeth and over the last 2 years, they have been breaking to the gums. I was and still am mortified and scared of dentists. When my cardiologist put my pacemaker in, I was awake. Same thing with my port a cath. I'm on home health and have been for 7 years. So I have to get some of my medicines that go through my IV which goes into my port. I was lightly sedated, but still awake. I wasn't stressed over that. I spend a lot of time in hospitals, ICU for a number of infections on various machines to keep me alive. Because of all of my medical things, my teeth are basically gone.
2 weeks ago, I went to a local dentist to see what I needed to go to get dentures. So, they did my treatment plan and Xrays. Thankfully a friend from church works there, so I didn't have a full-blown panic attack. I freak out when it comes to dentists. Even calling them I start sweating. I do have dental insurance, but only $2000 a year is covered. I wanted to get the snap-in dentures since I don't have the muscles to keep the teeth in. I only have 4 teeth and I knew I needed them removed and I was planning on getting dentures. But, I told my friend that I can't afford the snap-ins, I'll get what I can afford and then get things done as I can afford it. In order for me to get the snap-in dentures and I would have to be fully knocked out, they would be over $10,000 and there was no way I could do that. They would have to use my IV port in my chest and that would mean I would have to pay for an anesthesiologist. I could do the temporary immediate dentures and pull the teeth I have.
Anyhow, I went to the dentist 2 weeks ago, got my treatment plan and told them I would call them back after I can figure out what I can and can't afford. My friend knew what I needed and wanted. I finish up my appt and go home. About 30 minutes later my friend calls me and tells me that the full cost of my teeth has been paid for and I need to come in the next day to get the impressions. I was shocked and shaken since I knew at that point that I couldn't chicken out. I asked my friend who paid for it since my insurance only covered $2000. She didn't tell me though. The next day I had an appt to do the impressions and now next week my roots and remaining teeth will be gone. The person paid for the surgery, anesthesiologists and for the snap-ins for the upper and lowers. I know I would have kept putting things off and I would have made excuses. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Man are you blessed! Someone paid about $50,000 for you to have snap in dentures!
I had a gastric bypass 14 years ago and in the last two years my teeth began to deteriorate, I already have bile acid malabsorption and chronic pancreatitis because of the op being too aggressive for my body to cope with! And now my teeth have next to no calcium and decayed literally within the last year! I’m booked in for my clearance in July and I’m grateful for your videos hun Thankyou so much xxxx
I'm going through the exact same thing today. My teeth started to rapidly deteriorate about 14 years after gastric band. Wow!
@AndreaFerguson-cz8jx those are the parts they don’t tell you about….
First off, I just want to let you know what a strong and positive person you are! I have been a dedicated dental assistant for almost 8 years and your videos have moved me. I love how you want to help people in your situation and be a voice for everyone. One reason I love my job is helping patients like you smile again! If i ever have a patient that is having a rough time with wearing dentures i will send them the link to your channel. God bless you.
Laura Gettings They look beautiful 🤩
I'm going to my consult for full extractions and dentures next week. Im the type of person that panics if I don't have a step by step process of what's going to happen and possible complications to be aware of. I'm only 31 and i didn't expect to have to do this so young but your story helped me a lot. Thanks!
Good for you for seeking information. I was dumb enough to assume they would explain things to me. Kept asking questions. That was/is the worst part. Best of luck I am very unhappy with my “temporary” fit. Next week and am going to advocate for myself. They are made wrong!!!
I just got my upper teeth pulled yesterday. The pain is kinda so so. I love your videos and they have helped me a LOT for months before now. Thank you for posting these. I'm still a little scared cuz I do have a gag reflex. So far its very difficult with eating and drinking but everyone tells me that it will be well worth it in the long run. Thank you again!!
Tiffany Kelso i just got mine done today my uppers IM sipping water not eating yet
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I had an accident when I was 12. Then after 4 pregnancies I've been losing all my teeth. People think I'm a mean miserable b(bleep) because I don't smile but that's not it at all. Going to the dentist has never been a positive thing. Even had some staff laugh me and didn't know I could hear them. Watching this has given me the confidence to get my teeth done.
This has been extremely helpful. I'm very nervous and haven't scheduled my consultation! I do like the way you make it all so real, like anyone can do this!
Hi Kayla! You have a gorgeous smile and I’m glad you are happy! It’s so nice that you take the time to tell everyone what to expect. I was in an accident when I was a child, and it damaged the nerves in my mouth, and my parents were told eventually I would have to have my teeth removed. A very close friend who has worked all her life in dental told me that the nerves is what keeps the teeth alive, and she understood my situation. I am 66 years old, and I have had an upper denture for about 12 to 15 years, and it’s going to be replaced next month. I for some reason don’t remember it being a problem with the removal and immediate denture. My lower teeth will be removed Monday, and I’m nervous about it. It has to be done, and I hope it goes well and I really like my dentist. Thankfully, I have great dental insurance that pays up to $5,000. I truly don’t want the care involved with implants. Kayla, say a little prayer for me, and thank you so very much for sharing your experience!💕
Hey!!!! Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m sorry you had an accident, I can pretty much relate, and it’s not fun. You’re very strong and beautiful! Totally makes sense to replace the upper once the lowers are done. You’ll have a matching set, and it will be more comfortable for you. 5000?!?! That’s incredible insurance. I was only given 1500 s year, and took a couple years of insurance and paying out of pocket to fix my accident. So count your blessings love, that’s awesome! Implants aren’t for everyone. It’s definitely high maintenance. It’s s good thing you have every right to choose your own path in life. Proud of you! I will pray for you sweetheart! You’ve got this 😍
Great video. It's good you made this. When I got mine 3 years ago, I searched and watched ton of videos. You're helping many people for sure
👍🏻👍🏻😊🌸
Thank you sweetheart! This is the video I hope gets the most views. I wanted to reach out and help as many people as I could.
Kayla MyReason2Smile You'll get a lot of views for sure. So many people need help. I would've been lost without RUclips years back. I'm thankful help is available😊 Thanks for your videos🌸
Same for me! If not for RUclips, I would have never made the decision to get them. I didn’t even know it was an option till I found kalinjax
Kayla MyReason2Smile oh yeah, she was the first one I watched. I remember I was surprised I found videos on it lol
Me too! Times have changed. Now we have a whole community! It’s awesome.
I’m terrified 😭 I’m 19 and having all my teeth removed at once due to chronic illness I think I’m struggling the most because I just learned to love the way I look
You can still love yourself and how you look. It’s not ugly, it’s just a different version of you!
How are you doing?
Thank you so much for this. I got my bottom row pulled first. Today left top not counting fronts. Then next week the rest.. only about 5 teeth remain...everyone has made me feel so stupid for not having impressions with my teeth. Im healing fast. Thanks to you I feel like I've made a good decision. He was ready to pull all tops today but I was in so much shock like you that I'm doing half then the rest. Sorry such a long comment.. im just so glad I found you on here. 💕
35 and just got my full set 8 hours ago. The drool is insane sofar. Thank you for the inspiration.
I used to drool like a basset hound! It’s a foreign object, and your mouth thinks it’s food. It will eventually adapt, and you won’t drool all the time!
Very well done. Helping others is a gift. I'm 2 1/2 months into this adventure myself and approx. 4 months away from getting my perms.
Thank you so much! I absolutely try! Congrats on becoming part of the family!
You have a beautiful smile ,I'm 11 days in ,I have a full top denture and partial on the bottom , I'm having a hard time trying to eat solid foods ,the partial doesn't stay put , going to Dentist tomorrow for adjustment. Love your videos ,they give me hope !
Your teeth look amazing! The P4 is super white but that is more normal now. Lots of people get them that white, even their natural teeth. The shade goes well with your skin tone. Just got extractions and my 1st set like 3 days ago. Your video is helpful, thank you!
I’m so glad I’m about to help in some way. How are you doing with the new set?
@MyReason2smile well, my first set is not working. I am doing new impressions. This time, I did ask more questions since watching your video. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your video and your experience,im going to get total 20 teeth pulled and top denture and bottom partials done, this video is so helpful ❤️
Girl u r amazing! Thank u thank u thank u. I'm lying down, with a towel under my face cuz I'm still bleeding from my full mouth extractions😪 rip to My old teeth. I have to learn to love these new ones. I've waited sooo long 4 a pretty smile a life time I'm only 33. Now irs happening I'm still depressed. Thanks 4 the inspirational videos I c now that its not that bad. And I can have a normal smile😍😁💯
They look FABULOUS! What an awsum dentist and you documented it SO well, lots of excellent detailed tips 👌 Thank you!
Thank you! I got super blessed with him even if he got annoyed sometimes lol
Thank you so much for the video. I will be starting my denture journey very soon, like you, money is an issue. And, I had a doctor, a PA actually accuse me of doing drugs too, why, because I am low income. I told him I was on Social Security Disability, and he wanted me to prove it. I did then I reported him to medicare. You got a gem of a dentist, hope mine is as good. We will see in the next few months.
I had the same experience. I was on Medicaid and I had to go 6 months wo anything! Most embarrassing time of my life . But I finally found a great day office that was kind and patient with me. I even customized what teeth I wanted bc I had tiny teeth and I’ve had people tell me they can’t even tell
I watched your videos from the beginning. You gave me a lot of information that was worth gold. I appreciate this summary of your experiences because it puts everything into the proper context.
Thank you Cheryl! You’re such an angel, and beautiful too. Glad I could help in some way!!
I went in on the 2nd for my immediate impressions. They had to use a child's large tray and it was still slightly large for my mouth.
The 9th is my E-Day. You and one other have helped me prepare for it. I know what to expect and I just finished putting my "kit" together. I'm still pretty anxious, but not as severe. I'm ready to get this over with and move on.
Tramadol is awful. I'm prescribed it for RA and fibromyalgia pain. I take half a pill, I get very nauseated and then a migraine. They gave me zofran to take with it for the nausea...but zofran also causes headaches. I have a migraine disorder, and you want me to take two meds that cause headache....uh no thanks. So I only take it when my pain is absolutely severe.
It’s the addicts! I’ve had this convo with so many people. They alllllll tell me Tramadol doesn’t work. It does nothing for me, except make me sleep. It’s ridiculous. A handful of people ruined the rest of America’s life with pain. Now we all go through pain because we can’t be given anything better for the management. It angers me. I’m so sorry your doctors are as ignorant as mine. I hope you feel better soon. You can make it through this process. Promise!
Thanks for sharing your helping break the stigma! My situation is similar got partials at 30 then 5 years later they destroyed my other teeth they quoted me 17000$ to try to fix my teeth with no guarantee I have4 kids so I decided to get dentures and not burden my family with my teeth anymore your teeth look amazing 😉 im. currently getting a new set with dentkits im thinking of making videos to help others
Love the video the mannerisms and the personality made watching a serious video fun to watch I am almost 50 and at the point teeth are shot some can be saved many others not I have been considering dentures just can't imagine all teeth out at one time I just had an extraction and bone graph done it still hurts 3 days later but your video put me at ease this is the way to go
I'm 2 days out and your videos have helped me sooo much, so thank you! Xx
You’re so welcome love! Glad I could help!
She helped me through it. It has been 11 months for me.
Yay! Music to my ears. How did everything go for you?
I’m 16 days in and I have been so depressed. You being so brave makes me feel better. To be honest I don’t want to leave my house. I have immediate dentures and so far it’s not been great. I thought i would feel more beautiful but I don’t I feel worse my bottom denture is so loose I can’t even eat soft food or talk without it flopping around. Seeing you doing your make up and feeling good gives me hope that I will feel beautiful again.
Gastric bypass pt here as well from 2003. It destroyed my teeth, and partials finished them off. I’m getting an upper denture tomorrow with my last 8 remaining teeth extracted, 3 at gum line. I’m confused though because I really wasn’t informed that the immediate denture was temporary. I need to have a discussion before I start the extractions because the money I’m giving him is all the money I have for this. I love your videos. You give me hope. You’re beautiful!
I just got my teeth pulled 3 days ago. So far the immediates don’t hurt but they feel too big. My husband and kids even say they look huge. It sucks not being able to eat or talk. I feel more self conscious now than I did before I had my bad one’s pulled.
The temps do feel and look bigger. They are built like training wheels for your new smile. Even when I watched an old video of mine I thought wow my teeth were huge! I’m sorry it’s not what you had hoped for. If you think of it like a band aid to help while you’re healing. It may make it easier for you.
Thank you for this video . I have started the process with the top. I go next week for the bottom , before this video I was ready to back out . You made me feel a lot better about the procedure. Thank you again .
You’ve got this babe!! Let nothing on earth stop what you need to do for yourself!!! You’re so worth it.
MyReason 2Smile Thank you , I have to say the videos that you have posted are with out a shadow of a doubt the best on RUclips . Have a wonderful evening pretty lady .
That's for the full experience of your journey. It was all worth. I just went through it see my profile pic. I feel so much better. Thank you for the awesome video. I can't believe how much teeth can change a person. Love your face and smile.
I enjoyed your entire video…it’s the first time watching you…..had extractions done May 15 2023……..I’m in week 4 with Immediates, lost 11lbs so far….can’t chew……had four adjustments mostly for the bottoms then my dentist started charging $50….haven’t gone back for any more……. developed 2 bone spurs (I pulled one sliver out with tweezers)….the other one on top the pain has subsided and I can wear the tops w/no problem but they are getting loose……the bottoms are terrible….flopping all over when I try and eat with both in……….he wants $380 for a soft Reline!!!!!!!!! I know I have to start trying the adhesive or Sea Bond Wafers to see if that helps……..he wants to scan me for my permanents next month July 31……….No way!!!!!! I’m thinking about finding another Dentist…..you are sooooo lucky to have found that wonderful dentist and yours look great….I assume you can chew and eat anything you want??????? Will watch your other videos….tks
Hey! Your journey seems to be on par with everything I’ve heard or experienced over the past few years. A lot of people do the same thing with tweezers and bone spurs. 380 for a soft reline seems criminal to me. It would be 100% worth it to make a few calls to various dentists and get prices on their soft reline, and possibly explain what’s going on. You have temps and want to wait longer on perms to have the best fit. Good dentists do exist, they’re just harder to find. Use google to your absolute advantage and see what other people are saying about a potential new dentist, their bedside manner, and prices. People put everything online now so it shouldn’t be too too hard. I hope you find someone who is a better fit for you. You’re paying them and you should be happy. I do want to say a soft reline really changes the game, but adhesive does work when it’s needed. I struggled pretty hard at first with the bottoms so keep in mind this is pretty normal par the course.
Thank you for documenting your journey as you started in one arm but also thank you for this intense video were you linked it all together. I'll be 1 year in July but you are videos as well as the videos of many others have helped me immensely you're beautiful and sparkling personality was calming and allowed me to believe that I could get through this I'm still struggling but bit-by-bit little-by-little I'm making it through. Your amazing miss Kayla and I hope things are going well with you I look forward to your future videos and I just adore watching you.
Thank you as always! You’re such a breath of fresh air. Always kind, considerate, and just lovely. I wish everyone was more like you. I got my teeth in July too!! Yay, we’re a year apart, but denture buddies!
Thank you for this video , I wish I could give you a hug , I’m super sketched out about this process and your video helped to ease my mind. Thank you , you’re a saint
Awe! Thank you sweet thing. It’s not even as bad as the monster we make it to be in our mind. Promise. You got this 😉
Hi...I just watched your video and I am on Day 4 after having all of my top teeth extracted and I was sedated at the oral surgeon's office and my immediate dentures were placed before I woke up. So far I have done ok but I have so many questions that it's difficult to find the exact answers for me. As you explained in your video, everyone is different but I'm glad I watched this video and I will be checking out the others over the next few days to get an idea of what to expect. Thank you for posting this and yours look beautiful.
I just had mine done.... But they didn't give me temps. I wonder why some places do and some don't.... But I didn't ask for them so....idk.
Thank you for mentioning that post extraction smell lol, omg. Day 2 or 3 for me, there was this absolutely rancid smell, it made me gag. Nowhere on the internet does it really talk about all the nasty goo and slime and the smell that comes from the extraction sites, except for a few places that said it was probably infected which made me panic, but it wasn't infected at all, I was on antibiotics and my dentist said it just happens and will pass. And it did pass. Nobody EVER mentions how gross it is those first few days lol. I should probably bring it up in one of my own videos later on.
Yes!!!!! I try to be honest about the crap, I literally gagged so hard at the smell. It’s god awful.
Blood always smells
Watch the whole video while getting ready today 😆 but your videos have helped me thru my journey coming up on a year in July keep it up
Phillip Marsala that’s awesome! I do the same thing. I watch videos while doing other things. I may have a RUclips addiction, I don’t know lol. I’m so glad I was able to help in some way.
Just had my first reline done yesterday. These things feel really good. I'm still going to use adhesive, but not nearly as much as I was using.
Totally understandable. I see people in the Facebook groups talk about using it after as well. Doesn’t it feel soooo much better?
Absolutely! I had all of my teeth extracted about 4 weeks ago. The uppers felt Ok, but the lowers were a complete pain. I had to use a lot of adhesive to keep them from floating. Now, they feel so comfortable.
That’s awesome! It’s a game changer for sure.
Horrible genetics and a genetic disease have ruined my teeth, I'm only 33. I'm going in for my impressions on Monday, with extractions soon to follow, and all of them must go - I'm getting the removable implants done, which is pricey, but necessary. I'll still need immediate dentures made, for about six months until the posts are healed.
Honestly, I'm terrified. I have nightmares about losing all my teeth, and now it's really going to happen. Thankfully they're going to put me to sleep for the actual extraction. On the other hand, I won't occasionally be in so much pain that I can't function. I hope those valium work for me the way they did for you - my anxiety is going crazy just thinking about it.
Thank you so much for your help. I am on day 2 of a full set with my Temps and I hate them I am really emotional 😢. Your videos are helping me.
I understand that! It was an emotional roller coaster. Up and down. Just when you think you got the hang of it, your mouth changes again. It’s like trying to jump on a moving train. However, you’ll get it. I’m confident you can make it through the process, and it will just be a thing of the past!
The Pw4 definitely look better and more natural then the Pw2 for size although I would have went with a slightly and I mean slightly not so bright white shade. I think the pw4 is so much better then the pw2!!! ❤
I love my new dentures whit perfect beautiful teeth n I didn't go threw non of that I was put to sleep for my mouth extraction I didn't feel shit now I look 20 instead of 45
Yessss! This 👏🏻👏🏻😉
You’re so lucky lol. I wish I was being put to sleep for mine
I’m about to go through all this myself. In less then a week they will be pulling 25 teeth >< I tried to get them pulled while sedated but it was like another $5k on top of the $11k I’m already spending. I have severe anxiety and I’m dreading it! They are giving me halcion to take. I don’t have dental insurance, and I ordered the top of the line dentures that’s why it’s so much. An this is my own fault, I didn’t take care of my teeth when I was younger, avoided the dentist like the plague. I’m in my late 30’s. I’m scared but also excited. I’ve had a gap in my front top teeth, I got made fun of a lot as a kid growing up cuz of it. So I hardly ever smiled. Just hope they look as good as you do with yours. Specially for what I’m spending! Appreciate your videos, you have a new subscriber :D
Thank you so much for the sweet compliment. I hope they look incredible. I have panic attacks, and severe anxiety. I did perfectly fine under the circumstances. Try not to let it consume you! I’m sure you will do okay, just as I did. This will definitely correct that gap! You’re going to love it.
@@MyReason2smile Literally just got back from getting 25 teeth pulled. It really wasnt as bad as my anxiety was making it out to be. They numbed the crap out of my face, and checked again for any plain when he'd start to pull. Now let the healing begin!!!
@MyReason 2Smile So it's been a few days now ( Oct 28th was the extractions/intermediates ) and idk if it's just me, or this is the way it is. But, my top dentures, the roof of my mouth part is so thick, it's like if i had teeth and i put in a mouth guard and was trying to talk. Also it gives me that "monkey mouth" thing and that drives me nuts too. I already got my 1st reline, and it really didn't help with anything. My gums are still sore, i can't even wear my bottoms it hurts so bad. I pulled off the reline hoping it would get rid of the bulge . But that didn't do anything. When i have them in, i can't stop salivating. The reline tastes so bad, it makes my saliva taste like it, so i don't want to swallow it. I have to spit all the time. Im just very frustrated with them right now. I know that these are my intermediates, but i feel like this is worse then it should be. I'm paying about $12k for all this through Aspen Dental. I just don't know what to do at this point.
SourGames did things get better for you? I’m sorry that you went through that. I’ll be getting dentures soon also.
@@sexysagitarius1965 it's starting to get better. After a few visits, and some grinding on the dentures myself, they don't feel as bulky in my mouth. I'm able to talk more normal. Not to scare you or anything, cuz not everyone has this issue I guess. But after the extractions, I guess depending on how bad the tooth was there can be little shards of teeth or bone that start to work their way out and poke through the gum. Trying to wear my dentures with that made it pretty much impossible to eat anything solid. I had to go back and they did a small surgery where they cut my gums, pulled them back, and grinded the bone down with a Dremel like tool. They did that to the top and bottom on my left side. It is more smooth now, but even after it healed it's still a bit rough to chew anything that isn'y like noodles or something. My right side was ok before, and it started happening on that side now. I had made and appointment to have the surgery thing done again on that side, but I ended up canceling it. My anxiety is really bad. And it's like waaaaaaaaaaaaay to expensive to be put under. So right now, im just dealing with it. Some times I can eat other foods, but after awhile the gum starts to get sore and my bottom denture comes loose kinda easy, even with adhesive. When that happens, it's impossible to eat. It's been a rough experience so far. But, I feel that it's better then the pain I use to feel with my bad teeth. Let me know how things go for you when you get them.
I have 7 more teeth to pull on bottom front and their allll gone. It’s taken a year not a whole extraction. Cuz I’m chicken lol but I’m toward the end now and need to wait at least a month for a mold and go through all the things you did. You look AMAZING, I hope mine turn out like yours, I’m almost 60 and I’ve made the right choice. You look beautiful
I've had 2 refittings and my dentures are still to big for my muth I feel hopeless like they are never guna get them rite. Feel like the teeth look to big long ways too.
Hey dear, are they temps or perms? I’m assuming temps since I felt the same way. You will get somewhat used to them and then it will be time for perms. Perms will feel much much smaller compared to the temps. It’s totally normal since you have a bunch of plastic in your mouth surround your gums where your teeth took way less space.
Thank you for this video I go tomorrow to have my teeth pulled. Im getting dentures. Im terrified
Setting up my appointment tomorrow. Scared to death.
I'm getting ready to schedule my first consultation. How are you doing now?
I get mine pulled next week for medical reasons and then they say I have to wait 3 months to get dentures. I’m terrified.
I just had my impressions done a few days ago. The assistant asked me what color I wanted. I said the whiter the better? And all the ones she showed me were far from white.
That left me really confused.
mary girardin same! I had 3 options and all sucked but better than what I have now
I just went through the extractions on Monday, today is Friday so day 4. My gums are full of stitches I can NOT put my immediate dentures in they hurt too bad. It feels like someone of stabbing my gums with an ice pick. I can’t chew ANYTHING with them in as the bottom is so loose that a sip of water washes them out of my mouth. The top is also too loose and I can’t glue them because I have stitches. Long story short I haven’t been able to eat anything! I’ve tried to put the teeth in and wear them because they say you must... and I want to finish their statement YOU MUST WEAR YOUR TEETH IF YOU WANT TO BE IN PAIN ALL DAY. on Monday I’m going to the denturist and begging him to help me with these teeth. Or I’m going to pay for a new set this is ridiculous.
Feel like I've been heard for the first time by a dentist. I go in 2morro for my impressions. I have an active infection, and bone loss. I had a spontaneous fracture of a tooth two weeks ago. The ER dentist wanted to give me a partial. LOL. And take my money and not bill my insurance....yet also bill my insurance. Im glad I left. I feel hopeful I will be able to smile and wear lipstick again! Thank you for these videos
I’m sorry about the pain you’re going through 😕 I hope things get better soon. I would run, and find someone honest.
@@MyReason2smile Going to a different dentist who listened today. The other dentist, did infact bill my insurance for a visit i paid cash for. And then they wonder why we dont trust dentists.
You are right I want my dentures to be as white and bright as they can be YAY
Thank you for sharing your story, it’s extremely brave, as we know the stigma that comes with false teeth.
I am getting all my teeth removed on the 21st of February. I’m nervous to say the very least. Watching your video gives me peace of mind ❤️
How do I get implants done for free to promote the dentist /surgery
I can’t efford them & had to get dentures on top due to a bad bridge another dentist put in. & caused my teeth to decay in a few nnn in this I had 3 infections under the bridge :(
Wish I knew, because I absolutely would
You and your teeth look beautiful!
You took a whole chance you didn’t even know that office he didn’t do X-rays or nothing? Did he request transcripts from ur regular dentist? Ur brave cause I couldn’t!
#Scary it’s been 2 days almost for me and my bottom teeth gum has already started to close! I got like 4 stitches down there but it’s closing
thank you for sharing...it is so scary and traumatic to loose your teeth...I will be going through this and your video is very encouraging.
I need IV Sedation.. You are a brave woman..So many medications I am allergic too.
Your dentist sounds amazing! Mine pulled my back teeth, two weeks later they pulled all the fronts then put the temps in immediately. My bottom set is so big and uncomfortable I hate it. I can’t talk or eat with it. I’ve been a recluse for the past month and idk how I’m gonna be able to go back to society like this. I just keep telling myself I just have to get thru these six months 🙄
How are you now?
How are you now?
It’s a total 180° I had to get used to the permanent ones because they were a lot smaller so my mouth felt different and the teeth are a lot sharper so I found myself biting the inside of my cheek a lot and the inside of my bottom lip where they met together for the first few weeks but now there’s no issues. It’s a life changing process. U think what’s the big deal? I’ve had teeth my whole life it’ll be the same but everything’s different from speaking to eating or just trying to keep them in your mouth some days but once u get your permanent set you’ll feel a lot different and more natural. If u have a temp set get some densurefit. Or reline-it was my favorite. It’s at Walmart and it’s only $5 with as much as your mouth changes it’s more convenient and RUclips will teach you how to apply it.
No! Tramadol was given to me years ago for a back injury and it caused me to have a massive seizure which caused me to dislocate my left shoulder! I can no longer take it! I will need Hydrocodone 10/325 atleast I got my impressions last week and I panicked the f out, but got through it, but then after it was done, the dental assistant said, she was so sorry but she had to do the upper impression again!
Impression you were afraid of? 😔 maybe you should see an oral surgeon because if you’re scared of #impressions you’re going to def freakOut when it comes to #E-Day
You look great. Im in my 20's having a partial. People not going through it won't know the emotions
They really don’t! It consumes out lives, and yet people don’t get it.
They really don’t get how devastating losing this part of you is.
Been dealing with severe dry mouth and one day is great next day its horrible.Today is a good day because bottom denture is staying in place tomorrow might be different.Today successful day of eating McDonald’s oatmeal with apple chunks,hash browns and french fries and Wendy’s baked potato no pain yesterday it was hell eating BK chicken nuggets so much pain but successfully finished them.Go back in tomorrow for soft re-line for top.Top has never given me a lot of problems and could in beginning wear them no adhesive.The dry mouth has driven me crazy and just recently found the dry mouth lozenges and so far working great.The polident powder with polident xtra hold is working great on the lower jaw long as i am mindful of bite size of my food hardest thing I’ve successfully ate is McDonald’s sausage biscuit just smash/flatten the biting edge of the biscuit first and quickly move food to back chewing equally on both sides on dentures molars.
You are in the right direction for sure. I cut things up very small at first just to be able to get anything. I cried when I tried to bite pizza the first time. I’m glad you’re doing it right and handling the transition.
I had 10teeth at top all pulled out at same time month ago and I'm waiting for my dentures now. Thanks for your infor mation
How are you doing now?
I just had all of my teeth extracted this year. In April was my bottom teeth and my face/jaw swelled up a lot. I did feel pain in my gums and face but I took pain meds so I was mostly just uncomfortable. I couldn't open my mouth far at all. My lips were swollen. After a week the swelling went down, pain subsided. After about 2 and a half weeks or so I was able to open my mouth all the way again. Then in may I got my top teeth extracted. I had swelling then too but it wasn't as bad. There was pain but not too bad. Mostly uncomfortable. So now I have an apt tomorrow for my impressions!
Also, I was put under general anesthesia for both extractions.
Who could ever hate you geez the world is a mean place ur beautiful inside and out😘 keep up the vids my girl giving me strength to start my process on May 20th n ur keeping me calm about whole thing❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you
I’m so glad I could help. People can be just haters. It’s not my problem though. It’s irritating, but life!
Kori kunz hope your doing well since your journey has begun.
Thank You for this video. My dentist priscribed me an rx for my anxiety. I had 26 teeth extracted at once wide awake two weeks ago today. I'm currently dealing with 12 bone chips . I had one other come out already. My old regular doctor gave me tramdol when I was in my 20's for my arthritis. That 💩 made me feel like a zombie. My dentist isn't sure if I'll be able to wear dentures. Since my insurance covered 💯 extractions and will cover 💯 dentures, he said we can try dentures. We will do that after I heal from the full mouth extraction s. I go in at just under two months for the start of the denture process.
Hello. Kayla! I like your videos very much, you are so contagiously telling about your travels on dentures, you have a very beautiful smile like that of a pop singer. I will soon be 30 years old and constant excruciating toothaches without sleep also make me think about dentures like yours, but for this I need to remove 28 teeth, 14 of which very often hurt because of my bad genetics transferred from my mother. Of course I am very much afraid of this operation to remove the teeth and get used to a full denture, but it’s nice to smile as you really want. Tell me how to break your fear of a dental surgeon, I am very afraid of dentists since childhood
hey kayla, your video was so inspiring, thank you for sharing your insight!
My teeth were breaking because of gastric bypass. I went to a non for profit place and got 26 teeth pulled for 240.00 two weeks later I got dentures it was horrible until I got my soft liner in that helped a bit but the swelling is going down
I have mentioned how I believe the gastric bypass was the beginning of the end. It started everything. The soft reline really is a game changer even if it tastes like gel nails.
Thanks for sharing your journey... I'm currently going through everything myself. So many growing pains in this process...
There are more than I can ever remember. Glad I documented some of it, but it’s a lot
Thank you Kayla for this video update you help many people with your story all my teeth are bad and I live for years in pain I went to the dentist and she told me to keep some of my teeth she did say to me keep your teeth as much as you can because when you put all your teeth out you will get a change in your jaw and face but when I see this video update you look Beautiful and it looks like your own teeth what A Beautiful Smile you have I didn’t smile for years it is time to smile
❤️❤️❤️
It’s def time for a change! You deserve to smile and at the end of the day the dentist works for you. They need to do as you request. The face shape does def change though, that’s what I spoke about in my last video.
My dentist does not give a crap about me and he does not hide it, getting dentures has been nothing but a traumatic nightmare
I’m so sorry, some of them are jerks who should NOT be dealing with vulnerable people. May their pillows always be warm and may they find rocks in their shoes daily.
I’m only 16, but due to my health conditions I have very weak and sensitive teeth. They are constantly cracking and it stops me from sleeping and eating sometimes, so my dentist was talking about getting crowns or dentures but I’m worried about having to pay constantly when I’m older (because I would get it free because I live in the uk and I’m under 18 so I get free health care).
That’s true. I had a bunch of work done to try and save them, all failed
Try for implants
Your teeth look great and thank you for these videos I had the same story as you had partials and veneers they don’t last ! So I am getting my extractions/temp dentures next Friday
How did it end up going? Glad your making the changes. I’ve had all those failures, and it defeats the soul. Not fun.
Thanks for posting this! I've had no teeth for a while now and I've always put off doing this today I had the impressions and next week I go back he said for a special try but I don't know exactly what to expect is that the wax try on?
Just started my journey I felt the same 😿 I don’t know what’s gonna happen but it made me start a channel xx
Thank you x
I was supposed to go tomorrow morning to have my extractions and get my immediate denture and I am stressing so bad I had to cancel it 😩
Rebecca Egan aw Rebecca,do it. Living in pain is not okay stay strong you got this xx
Love your videos. The worst thing ever is having a toothache. I had 12 teeth pulled all at once 2nd time. I optd for no novicane since first time i got scared couldnt feel face. But it worked out ok. I made it. Love your videos...your a real joy.
Happy Easter kayla!!!! From your Tennessee friend.
My sweet sweet Jesus. You had teeth pulled with no Novocain?!?!?! What?!?! You’re a goddess! I can’t even imagine. Thank you so much for such kindness!
@@MyReason2smile ive found too...its always nice to have a second set hid. Ive lost mine before...as i sorta grind my dentures if i sleep in them....and ive misplaced mine. It saves a lot of time...cause im nuts....and kinda go crazy looking for them. Its sorta like a lost purse...only worse. Haha. I hope you continue your videos!!!!!
I get that. I have lost everything I love, or need! It’s ok. I left my temps in Texas, so I’m screwed if things go sideways. I promise to keep making videos. If people are willing to watch them, I’ll make them!
@@MyReason2smile haha were feeling so similar......your like family....i have no sisters...so your like a younger sister. Your just so much fun. Can we ever find a good eyeliner too?...mine always seems to want to crack..or just cant get on well. Maybe you have a suggestion next time.😁😁
I made a whole video on getting ready. Even showed all the products I use. I am a makeup hoarder. It’s bad! I had a whole room dedicated to it. I didn’t like the video and deleted it. 45 mins, was too long for most of my audience. Maybe I’ll make one again. I actually use an elf gel eyeliner. It doesn’t crack, and stays in my water line pretty decently. I have about 10 I use, but I’ve been favoring that one.
No valium, being put under. Im far to paranoid and freaked out please wish me luck
I'm going under tomorrow, for my top teeth. I hope that you're feeling better.
Hey! I'm now getting round to watching my first video of yours. Funnily enough this video you have here is what I'm doing for my new Wednesday. Ahh! And can I just say, you are bloody adorable 💕
You are so sweet!!!! Thank you! Great minds think alike right. We need more people making videos!
@@MyReason2smile that we do. We Definitely do.
Thank you for this video! Very helpful! I felt too young for this.
I'm so glad that you documented even though I'm a little jealous. Mine have been a nightmare. I'm still waiting on my wax tryon- upper only- from dentkits. I had hoped I would get my permanent denture before school was out. But its not looking like it.
I love your channel. Please continue to upload even if its not denture related. Or just move up to SE Oklahoma so we can hang!
I wasn’t from from Oklahoma once upon a time. I’m so sorry things haven’t worked out. I can understand the frustration. When we want something bad enough, it feels like it will never happen soon enough. I never thought it would happen for me the whole year or 2 I was waiting and praying for this. I’ve got more videos coming promise. I have so many ideas of things I want to post, but I’ve been pretty depressed lately. Hard to stay positive sometimes. I might start a second channel more about life, cooking, makeup etc.
@@MyReason2smile I rarely cook...I was lucky when I found this amazing man of mine because he also cooks. I love makeup almost as much as coffee. I added you on snapchat. LOL I l ok...i very your personality!
I’ve seen you! You’re gorgeous!
@@MyReason2smile thank you! It gives my 52 year old confidence a boost to hear that!
It’s so true! I’ve thought it every time I’ve seen you.
I went through the extraction of all my teeth on Dec 4th 2019. I was given a script for Amoxicillin and Norco. The worst day was the day of extraction, by the next day the bleeding and oozing stopped. I never really felt any pain afterwards due to the fact that i stayed on top of the Norco and continued til they ran out. By the time the Norcos were gone there was no pain at all. Just the swelling of my gums that just made my mouth feel uncomfortable or not normal. Yesterday I returned to my dentist to get an impression done of my gums. And yes those trays are too big lol. Impression of the top sucked as when she tried to remove it, it wouldn't move due to the seal that had occurred, thought my jaw was going to drop out with her pulling. Lower impression wasn't so bad except for the jaw pain since she had to keep pressure on it for 2 minutes, but it released much easier than the upper. Mind you I did not get a "healing set" of dentures or "immediate" dentures as my insurance does not cover that at all. So at this time i have no teeth and have had nothing to assist in eating since i had them removed. In the past week i have eaten pizza and sandwiches (no toast as it hurts the gums, yep i tried toast). But i feel that eating some "normal" food helps toughen the gums, plus the salt water rinses help as well. I return Jan 14th to the dentist to make decisions on or about my dentures, such as color? Or shade? Either way I am looking forward to getting the dentures. And my tooth extraction had to happen as I am diabetic and went undiagnosed for years, and so my teeth were destroyed from within, nothing toothpaste can do about that. Enjoyed your video and keep up the good work!!
Dark Poet thank you! How are you doing now? I wanted crunch so badly, I ate toast too! However, it quickly gets soggy in the mouth. So many fails! You’re not alone there lol
@@MyReason2smile I am doing GREAT at this time!! Thanks for asking. Wednesday I get my perm dentures. Lord I have eaten just about everything without teeth at this point so I know I will be in a much better position when I get my dentures Wednesday as I feel I will suffer less sore spots and discomfort since I will have had a full 3 months to heal.
Never had any gagging!Have had a lot of re-adjustments and soft re-lines.Again i go back tomorrow for soft re-line on top and maybe bottom
How did the soft reline turn out?
I just got my teeth on the 2 and I used custom grip but I now have sore and I can't wear my teeth 😢
18 extractions alone expected to pay close to$2K. $2K no plates yet.
11+K first quote , the next lower was $8 K all done with their best fit.
I would def take the lower one, why.. because I’m cheap lol I hope they do good work for you!
Ok, new subscriber here and well I had to stop the video part way through!!!! OMG YOU ARE FREAKIN HILLARIOUS🤣🤣🤣💗 I’m going for my upper full denture in a week, geezus help me I’m scared to death!!!!!! Watching you is helping so much hahaha you are amazing !!!! Also you look beautuf
Thank you so much! I’m glad you get my personality. Wild and free lol. You’ve got this doll! It only sucks for a little while, but a gorgeous smile lasts much longer!
Im scared shitliss to get my extractions done. My upper teeth is going to get worked on. What does it feel like after the post op surgery. Im getting immediate dentures the same day.
Truth? It feels like you had a smart mouth and 3 dudes taught you a lesson lol. It feels like you just got dragged down the street by a Mac truck… I’m kidding but in all seriousness, it’s not pleasant, and not the worst thing I’ve ever done. Make it out to be a monster and watch you think “oh it was easy” after it’s done.
I don't like "DD" as a person if that is who you are referring to and I know others who feel the same. Your video was awesome and your teeth are friggin' gorgeous! I had a full mouth extraction in 2011, but I didn't get immediates, so I was toothless for roughly 6 months before getting my first set of perms. Anyway, great vid and you're an entertaining storyteller :) Good job!
I love your videos. Is your dentist still practicing & if so, where? It,'s difficult to find such a good dds. Your teeth turned out great & you're so funny to watch. Appreciate any information. Thank you.
i didnt get immediates..i just waited it out to heal like some toothless freak lol..but my jaw was badly infected
Thankyou I think you are too cute. My front teeth are mess up and I think I will be getting dentures you have a beautiful smile, be blessed ❤️💜🚶♀️😘👍
You are too sweet! Thank you! Top dentures especially aren’t bad at all! Hope you are happy with this route! Thank you again!
I am in the UK and my front teeth are also a mess. I had an accident like Kayla and lack of funds and embarrassment prevented me doing anything about it. Next month my daughter is getting married so I am finally sorting it out! Getting fitted next week. Should have done it sooner. Thanks for this helpful video Kayla you have put my mind at rest.
Best dentures I’ve ever seen
god i can relate sooo bad to you..im so nervous people will find out or they will fall out..i also wasnt expecting to get all mine pulled the day i went in either
Your expressions are so darling!
Thank you! I appreciate the positivity in this comment.
Love your videos, I do have a correction though. With implants, they're not placed at the time of extraction. Bone grafts are placed and those need to heal and acclimate with the existing bone before being removed and the actual implant placed. The process takes several months.
Thank you sweetheart! My whole journey is based on removable dentures. I wish I could have had implants. I know a couple women who had extractions, and implants placed the same time. I’m hoping to be able to make videos down the road with the implant journey!
@@MyReason2smile, I had my extractions back in November and had 6 bone grafts placed at the same time. Now, 5 months later, I'm ready for the bottom posts. At 49, I'm SO glad I did this. You keep being you! You're helping people with your videos. 😁❤
Someday, I want to do it like that. I’m a little jealous! Happy for you though!! I don’t exactly underhand the whole bone grafting thing. I’m going to look into it now. I’m a curious soul! Thank you so much for all the sweetness
There are several places here in Los Angeles that offer "same day" implants. The biggest advertiser on television is Cunning Dental. The cost is around $50K.
God! That’s a whole car, and a good one too lol
Me too sister!! Friends don’t let friends have gastric bypass!!
I am about to start this process on Wednesday, I am kinda terrified but after watching your video I know what to expect....thank you for also making me laugh 😆
I’m so glad you got a laugh. Girl I’m a hot mess and if I can do it, literally anyone can. I hope your process went great and you’re doing okay at this point. You’re through the worst of it already.
From what ive watched so far, this is spot on!
Thank you! I tried so hard on this video to just give as much info as possible, without getting sidetracked too much lol I’m so proud of this one.
@@MyReason2smile be proud! Im honestly so glad you said something about the watering mouth, it drove me crazy and i had no idea everyone went through that. I've had mine 7 months and my mouth still waters.
Girlllll..... I’ll randomly drool, and my sister will be like you ok?!?! Lolol!! It happened Sunday. I’m just about 2 years out.
Thank you, I need to see your vid❤️ currently I am having very bad upper bridges bleeding and want to remove and replace them with dentures / can't afford implant dent.
My concerns I work and can't go to my work with a toothless mouth! How many days you have the bleeding gum and are you able to use a temporary dent. Immediately after the extraction? Is it moving? Fall when eating or talking? Your letters are pronounced, right?
Thank you dear
I really Auppreciate you Sharing your experience !! It doesn't sound soo bad really ? hopefully ? Im getting close to getting my dentures soon because my teeth are not really worth saving and my gums are not good enough to support them .... Thanks again. Dave
Thank you Dave. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows but it’s not the worst thing I’ve ever been through. You got this!
Thank you, Kayla, for your beauty and for your videos. Happy Easter!
Thank you for always watching! Literally, you’ve never missed a comment on a video. You’re truly amazing love!
Happy Easter to you too!
Please please be very cautious with her testimony. Don't let her scare you off. How bad you hurt depends on your pain tolerance. When you go to do your mold ask then to spray you with numbing spray and you will be just fine for the mold. The day of extractions will be your worse day and honestly you will be numb most of that day which is why your drolling blood. Most dentists will prescribe an antibiotic, and anti inflammatory or and pain medication. So i got Amoxicillin, Motrin 800 and Norco. The dentist pulled my teeth and put my dentures the same day so i never went without dentures.
I was so extremely scared due to Vlogs like this but it is truely not bad. You will be glad u did it. Im just 4 days after getting dentures and im eating crackers, pringles, and jjelly beans
Aunt Josie same for me. I was eating hard foods as soon as I got them. I’m not trying to scare anyone. There’s people who will handle this with minimal pain, and there’s people who will be down and out for a while. It depends on the person. I want my people to know both sides. It doesn’t change the outcome, just being informative.
Aunt Josie hi I'd like to ask u a few questions please
@@arleneaceves3425 Your welcome to ask
Not looking forward to doing impressions again for my permanents lol. That top tray FULL of sludge that begins to run down your throat, but starts to cure just in time before you actually drown in it 😅
And here no one is including the calories in the sludge. It’s a war crime! I’ve eaten so many bottles of adhesive and yet they don’t have the calories on there either! They need to do better. I don’t like impressions either.
Wonderful video, thank you. You were amazing!
