Reinventing Yourself with Dentures 

THIS!!! I will be getting the rest of my extractions in less than a week. When I knew this was going to happen I started on a weight loss journey and walking every day to get healthy. Cannot wait to wear lipstick , smile, take family photos and all of the things I have not gone in years! ❤️ I am so excited and ready to get out into the world and introduce myself to everyone and everything! Look out world here I come!

I've been crying all day because of the state of my teeth and feeling hopeless but this video is giving me hope. Thank you

I'm 37 and have had really bad teeth since I was 18. Over the years I gradually would get bad teeth pulled instead of fixed because of not having insurance at the time. When I was 25, one of my front teeth broke in half and completely destroyed my confidence and not having a job that provided insurance, I just dealt with it. It was extremely hard to be myself around people. Even my best friend and boyfriend who loved me for more than what my teeth looked like. Over the years it just got worse and worse and last November I finally got a job that provided me with dental insurance and today, I'm getting them fixed. Your videos are so encouraging. Thank you so much for sharing your story and being so open about your journey. It's truly inspiring ❤️❤️

I can’t sleep because in 6 hours all of my teeth are getting pulled and cut out, this has been 14 years in the making and it’s been so painful, when you said look someone in the eyes that’s something I never do. So you literally have made me so much calmer. Bless you!!!!!

It’s 2:30 am and I am up again with a horrible toothache. I am in the process of getting financing in place for my hybrids. This video has given me so much hope for my future. I am so excited to talk to people and go out in public and not be embarrassed. I’m looking forward to going to football and cheer practice with my kids and not embarrass them, go to school events with them and not have to wear a mask. Thank you so much for your channel and sharing your story.

Just got rest of my teeth pulled and my immediates. Face looks weird but i feel so much better. No more tooth infections!

I’m 42 and two weeks will be getting a full extraction and immediate dentures. I am terribly nervous but excited. The confidence to look someone in the eye and smile is a memory long since gone and I want to get that back. Your page has def helped me prepare. Thank you.

You said it perfectly. My life has totally changed since 2015 when I got my implants. I was afraid to talk to people, I was afraid to go places, and just in general my confidence was nonexistent. In my career as a real estate broker, I wasn’t even able to show my happiness to my clients. It’s been life-changing in every single way. And you were a big motivator to me. I cannot thank you enough. ❤

12 days out post extraction and for the first time today I actually didn’t think about my dentures.Yes I know they are there but I got distracted in doing normal daily life activities and they are becoming just a part of my daily routine and I am loving my new smile

I finally got dentures just a few months ago at 40 after dealing with several years of horrible teeth and even more horrible confidence and self worth because of being so afraid of drawing attention to my teeth, the difference in my life is literally night and day. I’m finally able to be seen again and look people in the eye and smile. It’s literally life changing, I had no idea the trauma bad teeth would cause until it happened to me and it really did effect every single part of my daily life. I would love to get implants eventually, I’m hoping to start with the bottom and then hopefully the top as well it’s just so so expensive but for now I can at least smile again and I’m so happy I made the decision to do something about my teeth. I was terrified and ashamed to even go to the dentist I didn’t want anyone at all to see in my mouth but it’s the best decision I could have made and I’m so grateful to have my smile back

My dentist doesn’t want me to get rid of the few rotten ass teeth I have left and he wants me to keep getting them fixed and filled. He even said they’re going to fall off eventually, so I’m like wtf am I keeping them for??? I can’t smile, I’ve isolated myself and let myself go. I want to be myself again. This gives me more confidence to grab the bull by the horns and go for dentures, then implants eventually. Thanks for the transparency and sharing your story and knowledge with us.

I,m almost 66 years old, and had all my teeth pulled 8 months ago. I had 9 implants installed that same day. I,m now 2 months into the snap in dentures. Way better than glueing in immediate dentures. Never could wear the bottoms. I can finally eat just about anything I want. Maybe the worst part was the expense.($40k) Thanks for sharing with all of us. This is a scary experience.

Im 1 week in w my dentures.like you said.its a mind set.im eating and getting used to them.and im loving them.i smile again.thank you

Your so very right....I just can't wait to smile again....great video and thank you for your honesty....it makes you even more beautiful

I hated the thought and trauma of extractions, but loved the idea of being able to look people in the eye and smile again. I'd been hiding my face for so long. Having my teeth replaced was probably the best decision I've ever made for my physical and mental health.

I'm about to be 43 on Sept 12. 5 days ago, I had to have my 7th extraction since I was in my early 20s, due to infection. The one before that was infected & abscessed. Filling just keep falling out & leads to this every time. I have so much bone loss from having teeth pulled, that one of my bottom, front incisors is always loose because there's not enough bone left to hold it in place. All my incisors are so sensitive it hurts to eat, hot or cold, even breathing through my mouth the air hitting them hurts. They also told me I have gum disease. About 5 years ago, I cracked my front tooth on my hula hoop & 2 winters ago it chipped off. I have barley anything left to chew or bite with. I'm finally ready for dentures. I'm so grateful I found this channel! I have always taken care of my teeth, but they just keep getting worse. Bad genes I guess. I also have a blood clotting disorder, which makes my blood so thick it does not circulate as well as it should. I believe that has something to do with it as well? Not sure what my insurance covers yet. Was wondering the cost of getting immediate healing dentures is? I live on a limited income, so saving takes time. I'd appreciate even an average cost of immediate healing dentures, bottom of the barrel is? I've been told my insurance should cover the extractions. Can anyone give me an idea?🙏

I want to say ,thank you so much for making these videos.i have been following and watching your videos for a month now.I go in today to get my treatment plan for my denture adventure. I have NEVER smiled in a picture with my kids.who I absolutely adore. I am mentally ready for this. And it is your uplifting videos that has helped me make it to this day. Thank you so much. I can completely agree. Teeth can really shut down the little and big things you want to do in life. Thank you

I pray for implants & a nice smile without my lisp. Ugh. Still praying & believing for a miracle. Tu for your content

You are so on point. Insecurity closes doors while confidence kicks them down. There's no doubt; you are helping a lot of people; keep up the great work.

Greetings! I am currently waiting to be able to get in to the dentist to start the denture process. I am looking forward to being able to eat, smile, talk yo people, etc. I'm using this experience to start doing healthy juicing, smoothies, etc. for general body and mind healing. I appreciate you so much and I thank you for sharing your story with us. Love and blessings ♥️🙏

Thank you so much for this. I am 17 and I am losing all my teeth do a genetic issues.

Thanks for sharing your stories. It makes me look at having to get dentures as a positive thing instead of a negative and embarrassing thing. I have always had low self esteem not just my teeth but I had a port wine birthmark that covered most of my neck. I was made fun of and people would ask what happened to me and some people would say comments about who had been kissing on my neck, did you get burnt do you have eczema etc. I also have vitiligo that causes you to lose pigment in your skin! Well at 50 I got my birth mark covered with a tattoo which helped my confidence so much! Then in 2023 I was diagnosed with acute CHF that caused my already bad teeth to get progressively worse. So it’s been rough. I am hoping getting my top dentures on August 22nd will just be another step in my healing journey💙 Your videos have made it less traumatic for me!

It's crazy how you're in my head. Things I've NEVER told anyone. So much love to you for it.

Yes this!! I have been going through so many things in life right now. Wanting change wanting a better life. I am working on changing my thinking as much as anything. But my over all health has been really bad for the last few years. Some things I can’t change but many I can. I stay away from everyone now. Rarely even go out. I can’t eat around anyone and can only eat certain things. I hate that I have to do this. But I am looking forward to being able to smile again. To not being ashamed to be around others.

You are so beautiful and I’m so glad I came across your channel. Due to autoimmune issues, my teeth have taken a hit. I have very little teeth left and have been told I need full dentures. I currently walk around with my top 4 teeth missing and when we had to mask up, I came alive! Now, not so much. I was supposed to go get the remaining top few removed today but couldn’t do it. I have an infection in one and in pain, I really hate myself. I’m going to keep watching your videos because you are very inspiring 💝. Sorry for the long post!

I don't know if you write the stuff you say before hand or not. Maybe notes. But you are a very good speaker. Your knowledge just comes out so naturally. Keep it going !

Hello! I've been watching your videos as I prepare to get dentures in the near future; thank you for your helpful info! I will be getting my last extractions in early and mid-September, then full dentures likely in late November. This has been a long journey, but I'm trying to keep my mind on the beneficial end result. A big benefit will be being able to laugh, really laugh, without looking down or putting my hand up to my mouth or just smiling and suppressing the laugh! I'll be able to open my mouth wider when I sing, and won't have to position the camera in my videos so people won't notice my missing teeth! I'll feel more confident singing in person in front of others. I'll be able to eat things I've had to avoid for a long time. The list is endless! I am very motivated and expect to do very well with my new teeth! Thanks again!

I have had my teeth out for 12 years, never been ever to wear my dentures. Now that I want to try again they are huge.I wish I was able to afford the implants. You look great.

Sooo needed.thank you for this🙏💛

I'm a ex drug user in my early 20s and those horrible decisions made my neglect my top teeth till there all rotten at the gums I I got cleaned and had a lil daughter with the love of my life and have been working my butt off for years now. I can't wait to get all my top teeth pulled and replaced with dentures so I can fill like I'm a good example for my lil girl and feel confident with myself again

The pain is sooooo worth it after all this and healing

The 7th is eday!! I have one more day looking like this and then I get a new start. I'm terrified but ready. Great timing, needed a lil pep talk. You've been a huge help, thank you!!! 🥰😁

Yeah, this….. I’m reinventing myself and have had to get standard dentures, but I will someday get implants! Guess Imma weirdo, I have dentures and went and bought Lipstain, liner…. I figured if ppl judge me, oh well, their probably not the kind of ppl I care to be around anyway! I went through a bad divorce, my teeth began to break and fall out, it was at that time that I had to get dentures…. Just decided to make the best of what was left, and build Bigger, and be my old self, with dentures--now I’m living large and looking forward to my future, Seriously! 😬😜.

My teeth were so bad and I defintely planned my life around no one seeing me smile.

If you just got your teeth out my biggest tip for food on the first few days is ramen noodles. They slide right down. Don’t even need to chew

Thank you for your videos. I am having full mouth extractions with immediate dentures in 6 days. Your videos have helped me so much, especially your videos about having a positive attitude and owning it with confidence. Thank you for sharing your story, it’s so similar to mine! You are a beautiful person!

I have cPTSD. I lost weight to a dangerous number from being sick. I got therapy and put weight back on, and then some, and then some. Seeing my hip bones did something to me and I was afraid without extra weight in case I got sick again. I think it is time to address this. I know once my e day comes, I will lose some from the diet change, I am gonna get my shit together

Thanks for your videos. I have a question, hope you can answer. I'm a 38 year old man looking into the all on 4. I just have a few concerns. As a man, I have a strong jaw line. And I hear people say that pulling teeth reduces that over time. I was wondering if your jaw line has changed since the all on 4? Will the screw implants of the all on 4 help to reduce that due to them being anchored to your jaw? Do they need to make adjustments to the screws as your jaw shrinks over time? I think this is the only reason left that has held me back from getting them. Maybe you have a video explaining this, if so I'm sorry. But thanks for your time and help!

Thank you I have soon getting denture. I can start my transformation right now.☺️

First of all thank you for posting your journey with us all. I need dentures and need help with financial spending 10k or more for teeth shouldn't be so hard or stressful. I was not happy with some of the financial aid out there. Can you make video for help in the financial aid. Thank you

best video you ever made. Congratulations!

I am going to watch your videos to help me through this. Getting dentures this coming Friday. But, I also am having an alveoplasty because the canine tooth that was extracted weeks ago, fractured the bone canal and what a mess. I was wondering what you know about this alveoplasty? The process gets done along with my front two teeth extracted and then in with the dentures. I worry about pain from the alveoplasty.

You have really helped me, I regretted getting my teeth done as soon as I did it, then I found your videos and got better about it however I am having a hard time getting bottom teeth, they have put me off another month then they said they will remake them again, it's already been a month, now I'm getting really depressed over having no bottom teeth

Did your face change after getting implants/bridges? I saw a couple of fb posts that people said their face looks different. Like lips, between lips and nose & cheeks. Great video btw!!!💕

Excellent video. I’ve felt most of this. My quality of life has diminished because of my teeth. All I need is a lottery win

All I wanted to do was to take a bite of a hamburger normally (and stop the constant fear of abscess). I had no idea how much full mouth extractions, full mouth dentures and $7600 would change my life.

It's about the money it's about I've seen people with horrifying dentures and it's just very very scary

l dont want to ''steer my ship''. l want GOD to steer it. Men know not how to steer though they think they do. Got my new teeth. They are ivoclar brand. May The Lord bless you Kalin. :)

Got mine today, and ready to really Live again 🤩😍💐😁

Hi Kalin! Have a question... was wondering how many times did you proof wax "try-ins" before you finally agreed on your permanent set of implant dentures? Just had my first "try-in" appt today. I rejected them due to being too large. Lemme know~thanks bunches! ❤

Thank you

Sooo true😢

Well said, kiddo.

Super inspiring thank you! 🫵🏻💯

This video is so me right now wow!!

Don't do this a month before giving birth I remember the pain after it. Love them now. Remember the dentist did not give me enough pain med felt it right after getting done before leaving the dentist office felt the pain. I love love love it them now

I am a completely different person after my dentures.

I had all teeth pulled thought was making me ill. Wrong decision. Now I can't eat and no denture. Dentures have tons of chemicals and glues. I can't have implants. I really messed up. Do you know anyone to help me? I'm at 95# and scared. So sick.

I’m right now in the process of figuring out the financial. I am in recovery and have been for 8 months. Mental health, dental health, and physical health are suffering. I really need help figuring out how to figure this all out and speak to family for help. I want a girlfriend, be able to smile, and go to college… and more. I plan on getting implants after I get these dentures and if I get this done my confidence should go up and I will get moving on obtaining a promotion to get implants.

Better job here I come!!!

You look good.

I got impressions for my dentures about a week after getting extractions and 9 bone graphs. Since gums take 4 months to heal and there will be bone loss in that time are these dentures immediate dentures? I think I need new impressions and dentures made after 4 months or will it matter when I get the 8 titanium posts installed in my top and bottom jaw bone?

You don’t mention the depression, lack of quality of life during the process! It’s been been a hard struggle and though your videos are uplifting it’s not something I would wish on my worst enemy! Truth….first and foremost I am not sponsored by anyone!!!! If you are going through this my heart Bleeds for you, it is painful, you will not recover like they say, you will not be able to eat like the say, you can talk like they say, you will have a full mouth of foreign objects you will not know how to use!!!! You will want to remove them asap, you will feel not yourself, you will look in the mirror and age 30yrs. You will lose 20lbs, you will wish you had your old teeth back because why in the fuck would anyone go through this!

❤️

Is there anyone happy about full mouth dentures not implants.? Is it something one can get use to and be happy about avoiding the pain of implants and the risks of failures of implants.

How did it take for you get use to your teeth

My consult is 8/1. So anxious. Could I ask for your email? I have a personal sponsorship question.

I have severe gum disease and it makes my breath smell horrible. I don’t even go to the barber shop any more. I just sit around trying to save money for implants, I might go to Brazil because it’s so much cheaper and I heard they’re very good with implants. Brazil mastered cosmetic surgery, and one dollar in Brazil is worth 5 right now. It’s horrible man, I wouldn’t even dare trying to talk to a girl. The worst part is I worked in a gym and I had so many chances to talk to girls but I couldn’t! These girls would just stare at me and I would stare back but I couldn’t make that move. They probably think I’m a fag lol.

Can you get Dentures that implants later? I wanna get a top denture and get all on four denture like a year later. Is that possible ?

Man do I have a story for you....we need to exchange emails

Did you have your lips done? So do you have dentures or implants?

How can I get financial help for my upper dentures, extractions and alignment. I need $2071.00
