Biking injury

Since late 2010, I have worn an upper denture. Though, early on, since it is less than perfectly comfortable, I frequently avoided wearing it, since this January I have been trying to wear it every weekday, in an effort to be more "civil" and presentable.

I have become a fairly steady bicyclist this year, as detailed in my biking blog -

However, on June 22, I fell (as detailed in my post for that day) -

When I fell, I went face first onto the pavement. Fortunately, I was not wearing my denture during this ride. Even so, though, my remaining natural lower teeth cut up the inside of my mouth pretty good, and consequently, I have not worn the denture since then, in an effort to give myself some time to heal. But I think that tomorrow I'm going to try it again.
