"I am left toothless with a denture that doesn't..."

About: Charles Clifford Dental Hospital

I had 8 teeth out under sedation after being reassured that I would be fitted with a denture immediately after the extraction. I was sent home with the denture that didn't fit and told to come back the next day. The denture was supposed to be fixed but I was sent home again and it still doesn't fit! And I was told to wait for a letter in the post. How am I supposed to do anything with no front teeth? I've not been eating properly and I'm too embarrassed to leave the house. I am devastated and as a dentist hospital you have let me down completely after years of great service. It's completely unacceptable to let anyone in that state leave without a solution. I have been mutalated for no good reason, thanks very much. Good job.
