gothwithdentures replied to Peggie Green's discussion 'Thought I was Menopausal but I'm wondering if it's just post-denture syndrome'

It could be a combination of both. Getting dentures is an emotional rollercoaster for lots of people regardless of age. I got my upper when I was 40 and that had me feeling more emotional that when I got a lower 10 years later. At least at 50 I had…

Peggie Green replied to Judy West's discussion 'I'm a Dentures "A New Smile" ADDICT'

I'm addicted too. Although, I've slipped in and out depending on my mood. Up days, down days. I post, then I worry that my post was seen as "stupid" and hide-out for awhile. I know for the most part people on this site are overly accepting and under…

Peggie Green replied to l. Rea's discussion 'one more question?'

Good question. I go in tues. the 8th for the same thing. They were supposed to call and get me in the middle of last month (I guess that was only if I felt I needed it). I lived with uppers literally dropping down while I talk. My lowers no longer s…

Peggie Green replied to l. Rea's discussion '4 days after E day'

I'm so glad to hear that you came thru it all just fine. It's just the not knowing what to expect that I think scares us all. I had dissolving stitches that poked me in my gums and were slightly irritating. Because I had an appointment the next week…

Peggie Green replied to Leyton71's discussion 'extractions...two years later'

Leyton, Hang in there! I can't pretend to know what you're going thru. Your partner's mom was very insensitive and hateful from what you said. Some people just don't think before they speak. She may not have meant to be so loud but all the same you…

Jason replied to Peggie Green's discussion '9 wks. and the shape of my smile is changing, any input?'

Hi Peggy I have had full dentures for many years. What happens is that you got immediates on your freshly extracted gums andduring 9 weeks the gums shrink quite a lot and the height of the gums become smaller and thereby the teth seems to move upwar…

Jan Coffey replied to Peggie Green's discussion '9 wks. and the shape of my smile is changing, any input?'

Yes!!! I have the monkey look too, and it's really been bothering me. I also noticed that when I smile, my bottom (crooked bad teeth) show more then the new upper denture. The monkey look is what is bothering me the most. The dentist trimmed some of…

Peggie Green replied to edurne's discussion 'To Inplant or Not'

I'm curious too. My dentist told me from the get-go that I should get 4 implants (2 top, 2 bottom) to hold them in place. However, my dad has had his dentures for 37 years (since his mid-40's) and doesn't have implants and has never had a problem wi…

Peggie Green replied to l. Rea's discussion 'e day'

I'm so sorry I missed your E-day. I took a vacation from the site because I've been depressed over things going on in my life (unrelated to my teeth). I also suffer from anxiety/depression and panic attacks. I've been on paxil on and off for years.…

Peggie Green replied to Elizabeth Foster's discussion '2 weeks after eday'

I'm really happy for you. Smile-away. It does wonders for you soul, being able to smile again. I'm a flirt and although I'm not content with my temps, they sure are better than what I had. Spread a little sunshine with your new smile and have a grea…

9 wks. and the shape of my smile is changing, any input?

I'm at a few days past 9 wks. and I've noticed that I can't see my top teeth when not smiling and barely when I do smile. Initially my smile looked just like my natural teeth (without the gaps). I always had a little "gummy" smile, which I like. Als…

NY mom replied to Peggie Green's discussion 'Thought I was Menopausal but I'm wondering if it's just post-denture syndrome'

I am not menopausal age but my opinion is that it has to do with the dental highs and lows. I was an emotional nightmare ...honestly ..for awhile.

I'm 48 I feel the same I don't think is menopausal. We are too self conscious about it that's what I think.

April, you are not alone. Go ahead and vent. We're all here to help. Why feel ashamed? None of us decided that we wanted to do this for the fun of it. We just weren't blessed with good bones/teeth. It happens. It's hard for spouses, I think, who hav…

Peggie Green replied to Jane's discussion 'I'm about ready to get DRUNK!!!'

I just keep laughing. This site is the greatest. The people out there keep the wit coming. It all helps and it gets better. I really think we need to hold a "reunion" somewhere in the midwest so we have a median place to meet. We'll take pictures of…

But I'm sure it helps with you getting out, keeping busy is good. I work full time, so I'm busy. Hang in there-- keep in touch!

It's been 1& 1/2 yrs since the dentures, but now I am starting the menopause thing, waking up in the middle of the night hot and then cold, no sex drive all the fun stuff, don't know if I wanna try the hormone route. Is that the symptoms your talking about ? Or is it the moodiness, and depression?
