I had a lower overdentue over 3 teeth. As the remaining 3 teeth got
loose I pulled them myself, ground them down and inserted them into my
lower denture ,using dentemp and superglue. I now have a full lower
denture that fits pretty well, althought I plan on having a reline soon.
My questin is can my 3 real teeth in the lower denture still get
cavities? I suspect so? Thanks in advance.

Enquiring minds would like to know why you chose to do this your self? Finances,
distance, time constraints or because it was there and you wanted to see if you
could?

Unless you are doing the reline yourself, get them to change the 3 teeth when
you get it reline. Won't cost that much more and will keep the denture from
literally falling apart.
