What are Dentures?
Dentures are a great and affordable solution to missing teeth and can be made from either acrylic or metal.
There are two types of denture – Full or partial:
- Full denture – used to replace all the natural teeth in your upper or lower jaw. They fit comfortably over your gums, so you can eat and speak with total ease and confidence.
- Partial dentures – fill in the gaps left by missing teeth and can be supported by your natural teeth with precision attachments or clips.
Getting Used to Your New Dentures
- Speaking: talking might feel a bit funny to start off with and you might need a bit of practice pronouncing certain words. You can speed up the process of adapting to your dentures by repeating tricky words and reading out loud. Within two weeks, you should find that you’re speaking as normal again.
- Eating: similarly, eating might take a bit of practice at first. Start with soft foods are necessary for a few days. Once your accustomed to chewing, you can begin to introduce more foods. Before you know it, you’ll be enjoying your usual diet!
- Soreness: you might have a little minor irritation when your dentures are first fitted, but this should ease quickly. In the meantime, we can relieve any discomfort by adjusting the surface of your denture to keep them comfortable as possible.
