I : I don't think this would hurt your gums, but neither do I think it wil help to hold the plate in place. Superglue doesn't bond well to damp surfaces like the gums, so i don't think it will accomplish your goal. Furthermore, the clumps of superglue left on the plate itself may cause irritation of the gums. Unfortunately, there are no dental schools in the san diego area; your nearest one is usc. If you can get yourself there, you could probably find a dental student who needs to make a denture for his or her training program, and who might do it for little or no money. Ucsd (and maybe also sdsu, which is right there near la mesa) have pre-dental programs, and may sponsor low-cost or free dental clinics. You might also search the web for free dental care san diego--i did a quick search and found several sites that might be able to help. One final option to consider is a visit to tijuana--there are quite a few dentists there who work on folks from the us, and who do good work at relatively low cost. You can take the trolley to the border and walk across.
