Hello my name is Debra. I watch your show and I love what you do for people. I’m 41years old and I’ve been wearing partial dentures since I was 25.
Although, they’re partial dentures they feel like complete ones since I only have 3 teeth remaining. My life has been a absolute misery ever since. I cannot talk to people not because my I’m afraid my dentures might dislodge , as well as, the adhesive I use doesn’t work with my body ph. causing me to have bad breath. I cannot bear to stand the grimaces of people because, of this. I eat so many mints that I’m afraid..I’ll become a diabetic. In addition, they don’t work. I can recall, being at a repast after a family member’s funeral and, feeling embarrassed cause of my breath.Heck, I won’t even “really” kiss my boyfriend . I only give him a quick peck. It horrifies me to think that people think I’m a nasty person because of this . I generally am a proud person but, I know, I can’t afford the work it will take to repair my mouth. Help me please..16years has been too long of time.
