What are the Typical Denture Problems People Experience?
Here are some of the most common denture problems and their solutions:
Discomfort and Irritation: People can feel pain or discomfort due to ill-fitting or loose dentures. The solution is to have them adjusted or relined by our dental professional.
Difficulty Speaking: New denture wearers may need help to speak clearly. We advise them to practice speaking, reading aloud, and using denture adhesive if required.
Difficulty Eating: Eating with dentures can be challenging, especially with hard or sticky foods. All you need to do is start with soft foods and cut them into smaller pieces. Chewing on both sides of the mouth can also help.
Bad Breath: Dentures can trap food particles and bacteria, leading to bad breath. Make sure you clean dentures daily and brush the gums, tongue, and roof of the mouth.
Denture Breakage: Dropping or mishandling dentures can lead to breakage. The solution is to handle them carefully and repair them at our dental practice.
