It feels like you just got your dentures<\/a> not that long ago, but the truth is that you\u2019ve had them for a few years, and you may not have noticed incremental changes. By now, you find that they don\u2019t fit like they used to, but is that really a big deal? Yes, ill-fitting dentures can have a devastating impact on you and your smile! Here are just five things that can result from having dentures that need to be adjusted or replaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Trouble Talking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve ever survived a time without dentures, you probably know how much you need your teeth to communicate with those around you. Unfortunately, if your dentures don\u2019t have a snug fit, your speech can sound slurred, sloppy, or unclear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of working hard to talk, you need to make sure your dentures feel comfortable and fit correctly so that you can make necessary sounds for clear communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Headaches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although many people don\u2019t immediately see the connection, headaches are a common symptom in those who have poorly fitting dentures. When your jaw doesn\u2019t function and move as it should, it can lead to pain in the jaw joint, which often leads to a headache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poor Nutrition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When dentures don\u2019t fit properly, eating can become a serious challenge. In fact, biting and chewing certain foods can be painful but also functionally impossible. Your bite becomes weaker, meaning you may be unable to eat raw fruits and vegetables, which tend to hold the most nutrition for the human body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, you may be forced to maintain a diet of softer, more processed foods, affecting not only your overall health but also your quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swollen, Blistery Gums<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In some ways, your gum tissue is like the skin outside the mouth. For instance, when your skin is subjected to rubbing, it blisters to protect itself. Did you know that your gums can blister from having a denture continually rub them? This reaction both looks and feels as bad as it sounds! In addition, when irritated, gum tissue swells and becomes sensitive to the touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When dentures fit as they should, your gums should be pink, firm, and comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Damage to Remaining Natural Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you still have real teeth in your mouth, a poorly fitting partial denture can threaten them. A partial denture relies on the fit as well as clasps around the surrounding teeth to stabilize the prosthetic, but it can rub against or hit these teeth, potentially leading to additional injury or tooth loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The simple solution to fight these struggles is to have dentures that fit as well as they can all the time. By visiting the dentist regularly for checkups and fittings, you can avoid facing these situations and always have teeth that look and function as intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
