I had all of my teeth extracted on 8/21/18 and temporary full set of dentures made. I was told there would be some bruising and soreness. I did not expect to look like I got the *** beat out of me by Mike Tyson!

After 3 weeks of heeling time I went back to get the dentures adjusted. The day they adjusted them the teeth fit and I felt no pain. The following day they were loose and painful. I also had a headache and jaw pain since the first day of wearing these dentures. I returned to their office to get adjustments and inform them of the continued headache and pain in my jaw a few times per week with same results. Feel and fit okay when I leave and a few hours later they are loose and painful. I asked the attendant and she said that they were not going to be perfect because they were temporary. My response was that they are temporary for a year. I have mouth and jaw pain, a constant headache and I cannot eat with them because they are crooked. Again, adjust and fine and next day back to the way they were.

Again I go back the following day. I had a new attendant and I asked her why they seem fine the day I go in but then a few hours or the next day they are loose and painful again. She said just a minute and left the room. When she came back she handed me CORA CAINE. I had never heard of it before. She asked me not to say where I got it and told me that it is a denture adhesive with a numbing agent in it. They line the denture with it and it glues and numbs and they feel great until it wears off.

After several weeks of complaining of the constant headache and jaw pain with no relief and the ill fit and painful dentures I went to a local dentist for a 2nd opinion. He said that the baseline of the dentures were off and causing my jaw pain and that the lack of depth to the teeth were the cause of the headaches. I went back to affordable denture with this information and they finally decided that they should make me a new set of teeth. I felt so relieved. I have not been able to eat anything substantial, I could not wear the teeth due to the pain and therefore was not able to leave my house.

I go for the fitting for my new set of dentures. They feel fine and seem to fit. This is a Friday afternoon. Saturday morning I was devastated. I put the top in and immediately felt intense sharp pain. There was a spur on the upper pallet. I put in the lower denture and there was 1/4 inch play of front to back movement. The bottom edge of the denture dug into the lower area of both the inner and outer area of my gums.

The following Monday I go to another local dentist. He took one look at the teeth in my mouth and said that there was no way that these teeth were made to fit you 3 days ago. He told me not to wear them and to get a lawyer.

I went back to affordable dentures that day and asked for my 100 day 100% refund and they refused. They were going to deduct for both sets of teeth and all of my office visits.

So I asked instead if I could transfer to the Burns, TN office. They agreed. I went to my car and called the Burns office and they made me an appointment and while they were getting my personal info they had a call come in and put me on hold. When the receptionist came back to the phone she cancelled my appointment and told me they were no longer taking transfer patients.

So, today, November 12, 2018, I went to see a lawyer. It has been 90 days now since I had my teeth extracted. 90 days with an intense headache. 90 days with intense jaw and mouth pain. 90 days that I have not been able to eat anything but soup, potatoes, yogurt and the like. Today I find out that the 100 day 100% guarantee does not start until you get your final permanent denture. SO FOR 1 YEAR AND 100 DAYS I GET TO HAVE A HEADACHE, JAW AND MOUTH PAIN, NOT BE ABLE TO EAT AND NOT LEAVE MY HOUSE BECAUSE I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO WEAR MY LOOSE FITTING, ILL MADE TORTURE DEVICES.

Reason of review: Bad quality.

Monetary Loss: $2685.

Preferred solution: Full refund.

Affordable Dentures Cons: Dishonesty, Quality of dentures, Lack of professionalism, Unwillingness to honor purported guarantee, Dismissal of all of my health concerns.

I'am pissed, I had 28 teeth removed and supposed bone graft in both upper and lower, that was 8-14-2019. todays date is 12-15-2020 and I have not been able to wear the temporary dentures they gave me.

NO communication at all!!! Went to a specialist , and they say it will cost about 28000.00 to set implant anchors and fit implants. THANK YOU affordable dentist and implants FOR screwing me after paying you thousands of dollars around 9or10!!!

It is the worst treatment I have ever encountered with PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION. This has to be the lowest form of DENTISTRY in our great nation.

The one I went to was in Jackson, TN but they are all connected. They are governed by the same company.

That company is not a medical or dental agency. It is a private for profit company. I am so sorry that you have gone through this as well. My best advice is RUN!!!

Talk to the Credit Care people and see if you can file a grievance of some sort to get your money back. I would not go back to them for any reason. You are just giving them a chance to further the harm they have already caused you. Also, tell them you will sue them for breach of contract if they do not return the unused portion of your money.

You may not be able to sue for negligent medical malpractice but you can sue for breach of contract. I wish you much luck.

In some people with advanced gum disease, extractions are easy. In most patients they are not.

Removing a lot of teeth is very traumatic because a lot of bone is lost. Dentures made immediately, instead of several months later after shrinkage has occurred, seldom fit well. Face it: You made a huge mistake extracting all your teeth, and a worse mistake going to Aspen Dental to do it.

Many patients can NEVER wear dentures successfully. Should have taken better care of your natural teeth!

Before you assume that he or she didnโ€™t take care of their teeth, you shouldnโ€™t judge. Many people since childhood have genetic problem or disease in their teeth and at a young age had to get a teeth removed.

My father loss all his teeth at the age of 20 and so did his father/ grandfather as well , and his daughter me.

Please be a positive thinker and person, and never judge because of your negativity thinking. Until you walked in someoneโ€™s shoes, who are you to judge.

There is no genetic disease that makes people lose teeth at a young age. Only bad habits and avoiding regular dental visits. Unlike in your grandfather's time, almost all drinking water is fluoridate.

How about being pushed down the stairs at age 3 and damaging your gums and loosing all your baby teeth!? Your second teeth come in all rotted because of this trauma. Donโ€™t judge others you know nothing about.

NOBODY can take out 29 teeth and have good fitting dentures to go in. Nothing fits well when so many teeth are taken out at one time.

The PROPER protocol is to have all back teeth taken out. Allow for AT LEAST 3 months of healing for all the swelling to go down and bone chips to work out. THEN have impressions and bite records taken on the healed ridges. When the immediate dentures go in, only the front teeth are extracted.

Even so, the dentures become loose very quickly.

This is standard for dentures. MORAL OF THE STORY: Don't have all your teeth removed!

This is not true at all. That is not the proper protocol.

Most patients do not want to have just front teeth and go through multiple surgeries. Please do not comment about proper protocol because that is highly innacurate.

I have made several thousand dentures. When you take out all the teeth at once, there is not stable base for the denture to rest on.

Especially on the lower arch it will not work.

You have at least got to have a healed posterior ridge for immediate dentures to work. Take a course in removable prosthetics, you ignoramus.

Thank you. This post review couldn't have been wrote any more perfect as relating to the exact thing I'm dealing with in Chester VA.

I PAID $4290 to have 29 teeth extracted in on day and left with my temporary set of dentures the very same day. I did this because they said yes sir no problem. Were told with the new tools out now there wouldn't have to be no surgical cutting out of teeth. There wasn't but the man had to work out in a gym or something for at times had to put his spare arm around my head twisting and grinding getting teeth out.

He took less than an hour and a half to extract 29 teeth including stitching my gums. The stitching was falling out in places before I made it home. Stitching was coming out in big pieces all week until none are left doing anything. Same thing as your comment of when you go in for adjusting they put your teeth in that look great with no pain until you leave and get home.

Told my wife it was like they were putting something on them to make them feel right or something. Your post I could use as my own it is so perfect to what I would write.

Thanks. BC from VA

I am so sorry. I know exactly how you feel.

I have since gone to a legitimate dentist. The difference is astounding! It took several visits to make molds and do try ins but it was so worth it.

I now have teeth that look amazing and I can eat with them. The "real" dentist cost me $1,800 compared to the $2600 I paid at AD.
