What Causes Eating And Breathing Trouble Due To Dentures?

had to have all upper teeth removed. Had temporary denture made and am waiting for healing to get 3 more implants to snap into new denture without the palate part. I already have one implant but unfortunately while waiting for everything to heal is now falling out.

When I put the temporary dentures in - I feel like my breathing is blocked and I have extreme nasal drip down the back of my throat. Why is this happening? I have had the dentures since last November - they still are horrible and I cannot eat. What is causing all this? Is there a problem with my sinus?

Hello
I think your temporary dentures are over extended just get them rechecked with your dentist this a common problem faced by patients when the denture extension is beyond specially at the palatal region extension.
So don’t worry get them corrected u will feel better…
