Getting my teeth removed for dentures
New teeth how to eat
I will be having my teeth removed in order to get top and bottom dentures. I wondering about how long will I have pain. what do can I eat. Should I get a food processor, blender or juicer? When can I start eating real food with my dentures? Any thoughts or information would be good. This is all new to me.

Well depending on how fast you heal you may want to have juicer or blender for some things. However you should still be able to eat normally to just get softer foods if you feel pain.
You may get your dentures right after having your teeth removed. That was what they did for my friend. She just could not us the Fixadent or other such products that help hold dentures in places, until her stitches were out.

When I had my teeth pulled out for dentures, I was back to eating normally in a week. It was not as bad as you may think. I ate soups and soft foods the first week but after that I was find.
I wish you well

you may want to get a juicer. Healing time can very from person to person. Example: for a diabetic, healing normally takes longer then a person who is not a diabetic.
Talk everything over with your dentist. Make sure you follow the aftercare instruction that will be given to you by your dentist.
Also you may want to know that sometimes your new dentures may have to be relined more then once as your gums heal. This is normal so do not get upset by having to have that done.

I had my top teeth removed and had to get just top denture. So it is a little different then you. As for me I was in pain for about four days. After that I was fine to eat anything.
I say by a juicer if you want but I do not think you will need to do it because of your teeth. See how you feel any way good luck
