Question:
Denture Gag: I have had a top plate for two years and have started gagging. I have actually gagged so much that I throw up.

I am afraid to go in public because anytime I smell anything unpleasant I get sick. I also have to take my teeth out about every two hours and replace the adhesive. I have eight bottom natural teeth that are going to be removed soon and when I got my partial they said my mouth was to small so it never stayed in.

I am very concerned with them floating, talking and eating. Are there any other options besides a bottom plate? ... Visitor from OK

Answer:
I would suggest the use of dental implants to secure your denture teeth in your mouth.

Implants are basically artificial tooth roots onto which your denture could snap into place.
