So you didn't have your upper teeth replaced, I have no teeth except a few on the bottom that aren't any good. Hopefully I will get all new ones. But I also have severe trismus. Can't remember if you have that also. Losing weight was at 148 now at 136 hard to eat with no teeth. Hope you are having a great day!❤️🙏

Just lower teeth as I only had the lower jawbone or mandible replaced.

I did not need to, still have all my uppers. Prosthodontist says my front 4 are not in good shape and is recommending implants at some time in the future. I have trismus as well, very painful at times. Is there any meds or therapy to treat this condition? After my cancer treatment in 2016 where I went from 180+ to around 150, I have held my own every since.
