You can use any denture fixture I had all my top teeth out before transplant and I tried them all but I didn't find one I liked I got quite a good fitting so don't need any now. But nothing in the fixture gels, strips will effect anything

Hi Jo Jo. I had all my teeth out soon after leaving hospital and have sufferedterrible pain with infections. I'm still waiting for teeth a year later due to inadequate bone growth. Is all this liver related? Thanks in advance.

It is sorry to say I just plucking the courage to go back to dentist again because having problems with my receding gums on bottom set but small price to pay. Have you got a temporary denture plate?

Any of them are fine I asked consultant if I should avoid them but they said wouldn't cause me any problems but if your concerned just double check with GP or your consultant x

No,just pain and sore gums! It's a good job I'm not vain, it looks like my head's caved in lol! I'm at the dentist soon for another try with a plate.

On the subject of dental care.

Post transplant I contacted the NHS dental clinic at my local hospital and was accepted as a special needs patient.

I cant speak for all NHS dental clinics but I'm fairly sure the criteria would be similar throughout the country.
