False teeth

Post Reply New Topic

For anyone who has false teeth, how's your love life?

I've been out of it for a while. Divorced after a 20-year marriage, swore "never again" for the past five years...
Lately I've been warming up to a certain guy. Not sure where that's going.

Anyway, I've acquired new teeth while hibernating. I've never been with a guy while wearing these awful things and I'd like to hear how it works. It'll-probably end up in a PM - I don't imagine anyone else wants to hear the indelicate details.

best to let the lucky fella know ahead of time that you have detachable teeth. speaking with subtlety, there are things you can do sans teeth that represent an advantage over toothy types.

As long as the guy takes steps to ensure that his breath is not bad, I don't see a problem here.

My late fiancé had dentures, and I didn't know it until 4-5 months into our relationship, and then I found out only because he told me. I absolutely couldn't tell the difference, and we were very.....close.....physically speaking.

I would recommend you mention it a little sooner, however.

That's the kind of answer I was looking for. Actual experience. Thanks.

Sorry for your loss.

when I was a teenager I dated a guy who had lost all his teeth from a medical condition and he slept with them in a glass by the bed and it did not bother me at all. I did not mind seeing him without his teeth in. I think if someone likes you they will find it endearing rather than gross as love is like that.

I cant remember what he was like to kiss and I cant remember if he told me before I stayed over as was nearly 20 years ago.

I dated a guy who had had all his teeth removed, and total dentures, and he smoked. It wasn't pleasant, honestly. It contributed to the end of relations, so to speak.

I have false teeth too, intimacy with them in feels weird and awkward, but my wife doesn't like it when I go for gummy lovin, so I compromise and take the bottom ones out and leave top in.

^LOL Very elegantly stated...
Thanks for lightening up a difficult (understandably serious/delicate) topic with a fresh perspective (gentle yet sly positive humor).

Here's my context/background:
Got partial upper plate in 2010, to cover/fill in two side incisors on top that are missing.

Had an FWB already at that point, later got a LDR with someone else.
Wore my fake teeth at first when meeting & spending time with both those people,
but as time & repetition wore on, I explained and said I feel more comfortable without the denture.
Both of them claimed to be okay with that, that they wanted me to feel at ease (mentally & physically) around them.

While I do feel self-conscious/weird about the gaps between my teeth, I also felt self-conscious while outfitted in the fake teeth.
Both in regard to how I appear up close (the false teeth are visibly so)
and when it comes to the tactile properties & even the fluid mechanics (!) of kissing.
So I was/am uncomfortable & insecure either way, there is no perfect answer-I feel nervous no matter what.

Since then, I broke up with the LDR bf, went back to my FWB, and continue looking for a new relationship.
I generally only wear the fake teeth when going out into the world, public-which is not very often.
It is stressful worrying about whether a new guy is going to find my dental situation a dealbreaker,
but there's nothing I can do-sooner or later he's gonna' figure it out, and I can't talk someone out of their turn-offs.

Haven't (knowingly) been with (for possible romance/lust) someone who has fake teeth, so don't know my reaction.

Thanks, everyone.
It's good to hear so many different reactions, good and bad.

speaking as one who's been there, i suspect he will be intrigued by the difference in sensations with/without.
