Will my dentures ever feel normal?

New denture wearers will begin to feel more ‘normal’ after about 30 days. During this time, you can expect to have some soreness and discomfort as your mouth heals and you become accustomed to having a foreign object in your mouth.

How can I talk with my dentures?

Some new denture wearers have difficulty with speech initially. One way to get used to speaking with dentures is to sing along to your favourite music with long, slow, fluid phrases. This method can help you get used to forming certain words more easily. Presumably the music distracts you from self-consciousness and serves as practise to restore normal speech. Mastering eating and speaking with your new dentures will boost your confidence.

What if I need help with my new dentures?

We are here to help you. But that can’t be achieved unless you contact us. Don’t be shy, no matter how small you may think the problem is. Resolution and reassurance is only a phone call away.

Will my new dentures hurt?

Sore spots and some irritation are normal, especially if you’ve had tooth extractions and an immediate denture inserted. Rinsing with warm salty water helps healing and the persistent bad taste some people experience initially. Around the two-week mark, most of the initial soreness and excessive saliva should have settled. Some adjustments may be needed as the mouth tissue and gums shrink.

Can my denture be repaired?

Yes, most dentures can be repaired! The next question on your lips is probably: ‘how fast can my denture be fixed'? In most cases, if the break is a simple one, you can have your denture back on the same day. All good news so far you say, but how much will my denture repair cost? Denture repairs start at $100.

Can I sleep with my dentures in?

Covering mouth tissues with foreign, non-biological materials 24 hours a day may not be ideal. Giving your mouth rest periods from dentures at times to suit you, is a sensible practice. For further information, read our article 'Can I sleep with my dentures in'?
