Importance of proper denture fit

    Proper denture fit is crucial for comfort, function, and overall oral health. Ill-fitting dentures can cause a range of issues, including:

  • Pain and discomfort: Poorly fitting dentures can cause sore spots, gum irritation, and pain.
  • Difficulty eating and speaking: Loose dentures can make it challenging to chew food properly and can affect speech.
  • Decreased confidence: Ill-fitting dentures can lead to self-consciousness and low self-esteem.
  • Oral health complications: Poorly fitting dentures can contribute to oral health problems, such as gum disease and an increased risk of cavities.
  • To ensure the right fit for your dentures:

  • Visit a dentist or prosthodontist with experience in denture fitting and adjustments.
  • Regularly schedule dental check-ups to assess the condition of your dentures and address any issues.
