    I think they are made to fit. Can she not fish it out of the toilet and sterilise it maybe?

    You cannot buy dentures "off the shelf", they are custom made to fit each person's mouth. Impressions have to be taken and the dentures made on plaster models. Your mom will need to phone her dentist first thing Monday morning and hope that they can see her. It will take a couple of visits and at least a week to make a full upper denture but may be quicker if it's only one or two teeth. The laboratory will charge more for express work so be prepared to pay a little extra to have them made quickly.

    Backstreet dentistry.
    Ever heard the stories about people trying in dentures out of a bag until they find one that fits? haha
