Why Do Dentures Adjust?

Posted .

For most people, getting false teeth is a big adjustment. Getting used to the fit of the false teeth, having them optimized when required and learning to take care of them appropriately will take a little time. Please recognize that the whole staff at Always Dental Care is rooting for you, and we’re here to assist you in whatever way you need us to. We hope the following information can be of use to you during this transition stage.

Once you’ve been fitted for dentures, your mouth will need some time to get used to them. Normally food is the only foreign material in your mouth, so your brain will most likely send salivation signals to your oral cavity, instigating excess saliva. You might also sense that there are slight marks on your gums after removing the dentures at first. Fortunately, these processes normally end within one to two days after patients begin wearing dentures. We endorse that you set up follow-up check-ups with us so that Dr. Truong Nguyen can readjust your false teeth as needed when you’re first getting accustomed to them. After a couple of weeks, your dentures should feel completely natural to your mouth.
