Anyone got false teeth ? How are you coping with them ?

[Dave7]

Situation is......my top teeth suddenly started to crumble. The dentist decided to grind down what was left and fit me with a palate and false gnashers.
I have really struggled with them. They make me gag and they hurt even though he refitted them several times.
Anyway, after 2 months I have just, for the 1st time, eaten with them in. Nothing too ambitious, sausage, egg beans, hash brown etc.
I will try and persevere.
Anyone else struggle with false gnashers ?

My dad did to begin with... it seemed they'd take a gum mould, spend a month making the denture, but in the meantime his gums changed shape so they never fit properly until about the 4th set IIRC. The gag reflex should 'turn off' once your brain is accustomed to the plate.
