Lay off the corn nuts for a while.

Had all my teeth pulled about a week ago. Just another cost of alcoholism.

Are you getting a reline? I believe you will feel much better after they reline the piece.

Mizzuno

Is it Alcoholism, or is it disease of the mouth? Periodontal disease?

trachemys

it was perio. My alcoholism was the cause. Drank instead of taking care of my teeth. Stupid me. They screwed up my lowers first try. Get new ones next week.

Thanks, Nons, love you bunches.

The reline or new lower should help you tremendously. Ive dealt with this in my family. I would take the piece out as much as possible ( At home, what have you). Your gums are still healing and having it in is probably not helping. Sorry for your loss. I really am.

trachemys

Honestly, it was just a matter of time. Runs in the family.

Non! I freaking love corn nuts! As a matter of fact I buy a bag when I go to jersey. I cannot get them on Long Island. I forgot the bag at home this morning.

trachemys hope you feel better soon. You have a sharp toung for wit. You make me laugh at a lot of your posts. Be careful you don't cut yourself with it.

trachemys

I've been my own worst enemy a long time, weasel. No more.

Coldfusion

Have some ice cream, it always works.

trachemys

ice water is helping. iced vodka would help more but that's off the table.

legna

It'll pass, and for what it's worth, I'm so proud of you for getting this taken care of. I'd come sit with you and wait it out if I could.

trachemys

Thanks, legna. Much better than that ***** Nonsensical

I'm so sorry you're going through this too. I've had gum problems recently and literally didn't know alcohol was probably the cause of it and what it had been doing to my teeth over the years. I think people need info like this-one of those public service announcements to college kids like "If you keep drinking like the good old days, you'll all be wearing dentures at your reunion?" or "These are your teeth-these are your teeth after abusing alcohol" showing dentures in a glass.

I had to get most of my teeth pulled in January due to my drinking and not looking after my teeth. It took some getting use to but I absolutely love my new dentures!

Getting my teeth done was one of the first things I did after I quit drinking.
