Dentures plus implants after radiation

Hi Greg, I decided against implants because wasn’t sure the 35 rounds of radiation didn’t compromise my mandible
Have full set of dentures for 3 months now and they fit very well. Top stays in very well. Bottoms
seems to get a little loose after 8 to 12 hours. Am experimenting with different adhesives and the amount to apply. So far am very happy with them. I had Alveoloplasty done before fittings and highly recommend you have this done.
Good luck
