    On January 29, I had 17 teeth extracted and temporary dentures placed. The very next day my lower denture kept coming out even with a sip of water. Contacted nurse and she suggested putting paste in. I did this but it did not work and the dentures were cutting into my lips and gums. It looked like the inside of the dentures were no smooth either. I tried over 4 days, several times a day to contact this business. I kept leaving messages for them to call back but did not here from them. On February 15, the receptionist called but stated she did not get all the messages. After explaing my problem she said you'll just have to get use to them. The only time they do adjustments in the afternoon and I am elderly and can't get there easily. I am beyond frustrated and I can't eat. This practice also has old equipment and very small rooms in which to work. They care nothing about their patients. They also will not do any procedure without ALL the money upfront no matter what.

    Complaint: 20165489



    I am rejecting this response because: This has all taken way too much time. I need a set of dentures now. If they can prove to me that the denture I have is a denture plus material I will be satisfied. However, if they cannot I want a refund on the price. Since I can tell that there is no difference in quality of the material (I have worked, i.e. sanded rough spots, on my old economy dentures and these new dentures and they are the same material. I don't know how they could possibly prove otherwise. Short of them having a lab sample and test both sets of dentures and proving me wrong then I stand by my complaint.



    Sincerely,

    I believe in my last response, I already offered pt the full refund when he returns the denture.  If you have any questions, please let me know
