Hi Gregory. I was left with five lower teeth and no uppers. Post radio/chemo I got fitted with dentures at the local NHS Dental Hospital they liaise with the oncology department. The dentures look okay and I can smile again, they’re a reasonable fit and when time went on a little more saliva helped keep the uppers in particular in place. It took about a year with a competent student (with supervision) doing the business. I’ll be honest I can only have soups and soft foods when out and about - without any kind of fixative). I might have a word with my own dentist about getting a new pair but at the minute I’m getting by. Just grateful I’ve passed the two year mark. Keep well…
Thanks my dentist and oral surgeon are going to try to save a few upper teeth to have upper partial with metal clasp but if they can't save upper teeth then denture is my only option hope the best for you im 5 years out from vocal cord cancer but teeth are not good good luck hope you get new better fitting in the near future
