I was soo uncomfortable and trying to deal, but called him yesterday, went in the p.m. and he sanded down a bulge on the side that was kicking the plate out and shortened the back of the plate and when I put them back in....wow...what a HUGE difference, I had gone out to do errands prior and couldn't shop! I know ME not being able to SHOP? I KNEW something was wrong, I didn't want to look or talk to anyone...and VIOLA, 30 min. after getting these adjustments I was in my car singing away! (I have been a singer for MANY years and it is my LOVE)...I was soooo happy, and this am, I feel soooo much better, eating is easier too....
So GO TO YOUR dentist for adjustments! That is what they are there for! And I will SAY IT AGAIN.....KEEP YOUR DENTURES IN! Take them out only to rinse and clean! you NEED to allow your gums to mold! I LOVE MY SMILE.....I am soooooo happy I did this now....YEAH!

I'm only on day 3 of my top plate (hate it) but after reading your post, will try to be more positive. I have to confess that I rushed home 2 days straight and took them out -----I will go see the denturist today and home he makes adjustments to make them more comfortable ---it's hard not to think about them all day long....I too love to sing and can barely speak, let alone sing with this "thing" I'll keep on trucking.....
