I had a lower denture made a few months ago but because my gum is thin and lumpy the denture would not stay in so my dentist arranged for another one to be made but a bit deeper. I am having problems with this one as well, I am not enjoying my food as my gum is getting sore because of the denture moving about. It's actually making my life miserable. My dentist suggested two dental implants so a new denture could be clipped onto the implants but they are very expensive and was wondering if, in the circumstances, the NHS would pay towards them. It is obviously not just for cosmetic reasons that I need the implants, it is simply so I can enjoy eating my food and enjoy life again.
