Frequently Asked Questions
Initially, dentures may feel awkward for a few weeks until you become accustomed to them. They may feel loose while the muscles in your tongue and cheeks learn to hold them in place. It’s not unusual to experience some initial soreness and irritation, however, over time this will pass.
Eating can take practice. Begin with soft foods in small pieces and slowly chew on both sides, to prevent dentures from tipping. As you get used to chewing, add in other foods from your diet. Be cautious with hot food/drink or hard sharp-edged bones or shells.
Pronouncing certain words may require practice and reading aloud can help with this. If you find your dentures clicking while speaking, talk slowly. You may find they slip slightly when you cough, laugh or smile. However, you can reposition them by biting down and swallowing.
Dentures are delicate and can easily break. Taking care of them is simple. Stand over a folded towel or basin of water when handling dentures for cleaning. Every day, they’ll require brushing like regular teeth to remove food and plaque. You’ll need to use a soft bristle brush to clean them as hard-bristles brushes can damage the dentures. Some denture wearers use hand soap and mild dishwashing liquid to clean their dentures.
