I finally got my new teeth. I'm having trouble learning how to use them. I feel like a baby learning how to eat. When does it get better?

Members rallied around someone adjusting to new teeth, offering warm reassurance that the learning curve is temporary and things do get better with time. Several members shared their own experiences, including struggles with talking, soreness, and changes in taste, all of which improved over time, with one member even celebrating being able to eat corn on the cob again. A recurring theme was encouragement to be patient with yourself, give it time, and keep smiling.

@A MyMSTeam Member I’m so sorry you are going through this. It will get easier and better. It took me a while to get used to my new teeth. Talking was a real challenge for me. Hang in there. It’s worth it. Don’t forget to say cheese and smile!
