Many people believe that they are unsightly and uncomfortable, but that\u2019s not always true. In fact, if dentures are well-made and custom-fitted for a patient, they can be a beautiful, sturdy, and comfortable tooth replacement option. Sometimes, however, you may find that your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentistrycoralsprings.com\/restorative-dentistry.html\">dentures in Coral Springs<\/a> are making your mouth sore. Here are some tips to help you cope with this situation and get back to enjoying your lovely smile.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Adjusting to Your Dentures<\/h2>\n<p>Many denture wearers experience the most discomfort right after they get their new teeth. After all, you\u2019ve become accustomed to those gaps in your smile, and now you have to adapt to a prosthesis. Here are a few tips to help you through the adjustment phase:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use a topical gel or cream to relieve your sore gums.<\/li>\n<li>Rinse with salt water to reduce inflammation.<\/li>\n<li>Gently massage your gums to encourage blood circulation.<\/li>\n<li>Use a denture adhesive to make sure your new teeth don\u2019t slip around and irritate your gums.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It shouldn\u2019t take more than a few weeks for you to get used to your dentures. If problems persist after that, get in touch with your dentist in Coral Springs and ask for help.<\/p>\n<h2>Natural Changes in Your Mouth May Lead to Discomfort<\/h2>\n<p>When you lose teeth, your body begins to resorb, or break down, the bone that used to support them. This can result in changes to the shape of your jaw. At first, this process takes place quickly, which is why you may have to wait a few months after extractions before you receive your dentures. After the first few months, the bone changes slow down, but they\u2019ll continue for the rest of your life.<\/p>\n<p>As your body resorbs the bone, your dentures may not fit as well as they used to. When this occurs, it\u2019s a good idea to head to your dentist to get your prosthesis relined; your dentist will apply a material to the inside of the denture that will provide cushion and a more secure fit.<\/p>\n<h2>Replacing Your Dentures<\/h2>\n<p>Eventually, the changes to your jaw will reach the point where relining your dentures will no longer help. Every five to 10 years or so, you may have to replace your prosthesis altogether in order to enjoy a secure, comfortable smile.<\/p>\n<p>One way to avoid the need for relining and replacement is to ask your dentist about implant-supported dentures, which are anchored in the mouth via small titanium posts that an oral surgeon places in the jaw. The implants bond with the body and help to prevent bone loss so your dentures will always fit perfectly.<\/p>\n<p>Dentures in Coral Springs are a convenient way to rebuild your smile. The above tips can help you deal with any discomfort so you can enjoy your prosthetic teeth without worries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Dentist<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Walter Kulick is your friendly, experienced dentist in Coral Springs.
