do your teeth still feel uncomfortable? like not yours? or do they feel like part of you now? Thanks :)

@coleycole1207 no I am totally used to them and don't even think about them really. They don't feel odd or out of place at all. You do get used to it!

i am new to your channelyour videos have helped me soo much. i have been slowly getting all of my top teeth pulled and have to have a full upper denture and only a partial bottom. my question is the bottom denture the hardest to get used to and the one that makes it difficult to eat.

@bratnik25 from most people's experience, yes- it's the more challenging one. But it's not impossible to function with it. I can eat just fine with mine and it moves allover the place if I let it. It just takes some getting used to;-p

Thanks so much for sharing your courage, perseverance, and strength throughout this journey. Watching your video really helped remind me of some important things. I've been having ongoing dental work & surgeries for over a year now. Changes in my speech were frustrating at first. Once I accepted that it will take time for my tongue to get used to the new configurations, I was able to laugh at myself for sounding like Sylvester the Cat. I like what you said about your son's first steps...so true

Hello...Your video was shown to me by a subscriber of yours and mine. I have had so many issues after the placement that it has taken over my life pretty much. I live here in Fernandina Beach/ Amelia Island....just North of you in Jax.

If you see my videos...let me know what you think or if you have ever heard of what I am going through. Also.....do you have full plates upper and Lower or just the lower? They look so good I couldn't tell . You are a very pretty lady and I think they look great!!

Another amazing video. For so many reasons, you deserve an award. Let's just all it a "care" award.

I just wanted to say that you are a very very awesomely genuine person. Your courage to do these videos is helping so many people, myself included. You are making a ripple in this modern world of ours. And I applaude and thank you again!! You are amazing!!

One of the many things I learned from Kal by watching her videos. I made the mistake of assuming I could/would/should be able to speak/eat like I did with real teeth. That, is what frustrated me. Then, I came here. Watching her vids she's shown me: Speak a little slower, practise enunciation carefully, take smaller bites, eat slower. When I accepted that, it's amazing how quickly everything else fell into place.Those are powerful, and new for me, things to encorporate, but it has worked well.
