both my parent have false teeth. They always want to fix my teeth since they now how hard it is to wear false teeth. You need a few months to get used to it, but i guess yours is okay since you only have one or two false teeth.

hi there lady! yes I do think so that having one or 2 false teeth is not like having all teeth false. thank you for giving me a time frame for getting used to it. I am excited and nervous in having one soon

Hello katrinapaz. My father used to have false teeth. He did not have real teeth. Every day when he started to eat, he put on his false teeth and after eating, he took them off and brushed them and kept them in the clean water. When the false teeth are taken off, it looks so different on the mouth. My mother has some false teeth as well. My mother tells me that she cannot bite something hard stuff without the real teeth. I am afraid that I will also have to get some false teeth very soon because one seriously-damaged tooth is having one side empty...Thanks for the discussion.

hi there williams! thank you for sharing your parents experience with their false teeth. maybe it really is a part off growing old, having false teeth. I would admit that I have not cared for my teeth well when I was young so I have to accept the consequence.

No I don't have false teeth. My husband is missing two tooth but has no false ones also the rest is not moving at all. Both of my grannies had false teeth, one of them already at the age of 18. And with false teeth I mean all of them. She was getting them out at night. My other granny had them too but never took them out (so actualy we did not knew it for a long time). I assume that if you only have 2 false teeth it will be the same as having all your teeth and it will be easier for you to eat if the rest is not moving anymore. Over here just 1 or more false teeth would take way longer to fix as to get out all of your teeth and give you a new one. I don't think there is anything to get worried about. Ask your dentist how he/she will fix it and everything will be fine. I think it will only improve your teeth, your smile, your eating and probably your self esteem as well. Wish you luck!
