I had about 20 extractions and dentures put in about 6 months ago and never really got comfortable with them and the adhesive. Could the fact that I was grinding and fidgeting with them made it possible for the inner skin inside to peel off inside of my body as I have had feelings of string or rubber wrapping around my head and body sometimes it feels like my ear is actually pinned backwards but when I look I m the mirror it is fine. I went to the doctor and he said it was neurological so I went to the emergency room and get MRI and am awaitiny appointment with him. Have you ever heard of anything like this?
Hi. Thanks for the query. Well, if you have a habit of grinding teeth then the denture will unfortunately not set well causing difficulty in adaptation of the dentures. It can continuously dislodge he denture and making it difficult for you to wear them and use efficiently.However, the denture will not cause any peeling of skin inside body or the other symptoms of string wrapped around the head. Yes, you are advised correctly that the symptoms can be neurological and even the grinding of teeth can be related to it. So my suggestion is to get your MRI evaluated.Also, for teeth grinding habit you can do meditation and reduce stress. Also consult a Prosthodontist for manipulation of your denture. Hope this helps. Regards.
