I moved from Georgia to Tennessee three years ago. About a year and a half ago I paid my new dentist a lot money for a new denture that I hate. I know that\u2019s a strong word but I really hate these false teeth. That\u2019s just what they look like. I am 60 years old. I was blessed to be able to retire at 57. I am happy and I have a very active social life. I&#8217;m a volunteer two days a week for two different organizations and these false teeth are embarrassing me. My dentist tells me I\u2019m too picky. I think he forgot how much cash I dropped for these things. He has done the dentures over again twice but I am no where near satisfied. What can I do or say to help him understand what I want and get it right? Thank you. Ricky P.<\/p>\n<p>Ricky, Your situation is unfortunate, but common. Many people see their regular dentist hoping for natural-looking dentures, only to be disappointed. Most dentists lack artistic inclination.<\/p>\n<p>Find a cosmetic dentist.
