Make Sure Dentures Fit Properly To Avoid Unwanted Complications

Snug fitting replacement teeth offer wearers the ability to smile without feeling uncomfortable, a solution to eat their favorite foods again, and a way to fix a misaligned bite. However, when they fit improperly, pain and discomfort become apparent. Dentures that bounce, rock, or continually slip out of place pose a danger to one’s mouth health. Lacerations can form on the cheeks, gums, and tongue leaving you with ulcers and the unwanted taste of blood. Existing natural teeth can also become cracked or broken, resulting in an extraction or root canal being needed to fix the problem.

Avoid embarrassing situations by ensuring that your dentures fit correctly. These replacements tend to slip and fall out of one’s mouth at the most inopportune times like while eating lunch with friends or giving a presentation at a company meeting. Adhesives are available to help hold dentures securely and firmly in place, but they leave behind unwanted aftertastes and undesirable sticky residues. The materials used to make the dentures are durable and long-lasting, but over time, your bone structure and bite will change slightly, and you will need to become fit for a new set.
