If you have lost a lot of teeth or have a full denture, the most common solutions are dentures, sometimes called false teeth. Dentures can save you from many problems caused by missing teeth. But if dentures do not fit well or are not given the necessary care, they can lead to a series of new problems.
The harmful consequences of dentures
Because such situations also exist, we will list them, very briefly, below.
Sore throat and irritated mouth
Some denture wearers suffer from mouth irritation and infections caused by bacteria that attach to their dentures if they do not fit properly.
Loss of dentures
When you lose your teeth, it affects the interaction between your teeth and bone. Because the gums and bone are no longer stimulated by the teeth and tooth roots as well as they should be, the jawbone begins to shrink and your gums recede. When this happens, dentures „ play” in your mouth and need to be adjusted.
Adhesive creams offer only an instant solution and should be used sparingly. Repeated application of a dollop of cream can be tiresome, time-consuming, and often unpleasant for denture wearers.
Difficulties when eating, speaking, and smiling
As a wearer of dentures, you will certainly know the feeling of not being able to eat what you like. You might even feel uncomfortable when smiling or talking in public due to the fear of your dentures falling out in front of others.
The problems above are so common among denture wearers that, in numerous cases, we receive the following question:
„I want to get rid of my uncomfortable dentures. Is there an alternative?”
Modern dental implant solutions, such as those from Nobel Biocare, can help you overcome these problems and regain the full function and natural appearance of your teeth.
