One week today! Today I feel so much better after having a rough weekend. Thank God, they were able to see the problem and address it. I was advised today that they did extensive gum reconstruction and subsequently have developed an ulcer in the roof of my mouth. They made adjustments to my top bridge and I feel considerably better and prescribed a mouth wash to help heal the wound and soothe the pain. They agreed that my top arch is too small, made several adjustments and will make a new bridge in 6 weeks. These changes made a big difference and provided me some much needed relief. I am so glad I listened to gut and insisted something was off and I am back on the road back to myself.
Thank you all for your support here it helps so much!!

I’m so glad you got sorted lady X
Nikki R. minor adjustments made a major difference! So grateful, hope your doing well!
I’m doing well thank you . Saw my dentist for my weekly check in. He’s taking stitches out next week and showing me how to clean my teeth with a water pick and special floss.
Still got a few sore bits on my mouth, brushing is still tender too, but each day is better than the previous.
Hardly taking pain meds now, I think by end of the week I will have dropped them altogether.
My dentist says once your into week 3 everything gets way better . So I should feel much better about everything then it’s not long before we can think about designing my perms 🙂..
Nikki R. it’s all uphill from here for us ♥️

Marian S. I got some yesterday at local health food store I have applied it twice now so hopefully it will start improving! Thank for telling me about it.
You really do look great..
Beautiful
So glad to hear you found a resolution
Did you have to pay extra and how do they do extensive gum reconstructive?
Pat B. I wasn’t aware they did till today and he explained that he had to really move the gum more than he anticipated and had to basically graph it. This extra cutting and sutures caused the ulcer to form. He prescribed magic mouth wash the pharmacist had to make for me, one dose was huge relief. Out of all the surgery areas this ulcer by far is the most painful. Hopefully on my way up now♥️
Pat B. no I was given one fee from start to finish regardless what needed to be done.
I feel I need this …did you have implants
Pat B. yes I did both upper and lower
Your smile is beautiful and it goes without saying your a beautiful lady. Im so happy you found relief and wish you so much happiness in your new smile!
I go the 26th to start my process and let me tell you, im more and more nervous each day and every minute. I read problems people have, horrible experiences and then something good like this comes along and it really help. Thank you for sharing!
Chassity H. I know exactly how you feel, I was scared, nervous and excited at the same time. You will be fine, even with these few set backs, it wasn’t that bad. My famous words lately, I look worse than I feel. ♥️
Tammy Jo G. – did you have your teeth done in this country (UK). They look really nice. Having mine done but haven’t managed to find anyone who has had them done by the dentist I have in mind.
