What is a “Denture”?

Dentures are custom-made removable replacements for missing teeth and surrounding tissue. Designed to restore function and appearance, dentures come in two main types: complete and partial. Complete dentures are used when all teeth are missing, while partial dentures are ideal when some natural teeth remain. They help improve chewing, support facial muscles, and enhance speech clarity. Dentures are a cost-effective solution for tooth loss and can be crafted to look very natural. With proper care, they offer comfort, convenience, and a confident smile.

FAQ

Mild discomfort is common when you first get dentures, but persistent soreness isn’t normal. It could mean your denture isn’t fitting correctly, and you should schedule an adjustment with Dr. Peng.

Most men and women find they’re able to adjust to their braces within a couple of weeks of receiving them. The length of time it takes you to adjust depends on how extensive your dentures are (that is, if they’re partial or full dentures) and how often you wear them. To “speed up” the breaking-in period, wear your dentures as often as possible so your gums become used to the way they feel. Initially, you may feel your dentures are too large or your lips are protruding; these feelings are very common and resolve as you become more used to the way your dentures feel in your mouth.

Initially, your tongue may feel “displaced” or you may feel awkward speaking as you normally would, especially if you have full dentures. To adjust more quickly during the breaking-in period, try practicing reading aloud for a few days so you become used to the way the dentures feel in your mouth while speaking.

In most cases, dentures slip because they’re not fitted properly or, in some cases, inadequate adhesive is being used to secure them. If you find your dentures are slipping, especially when you’re eating or speaking, make an appointment with Dr. Peng to see if an adjustment can help.

Yes; caring for natural teeth is just one part of dentistry. Regular dental visits are essential even if you wear full dentures. Your dentist will check for gum health, proper denture fit, and perform oral cancer screenings. Ill-fitting dentures can lead to sore spots, infections, and difficulty eating or speaking, so ongoing care ensures your comfort and overall health.

Yes. Loose or worn dentures can cause mouth sores, infections, jaw pain, and difficulty chewing, which may lead to poor nutrition. Regular dental visits help ensure your dentures fit well and support your overall health.
