A fit made for your mouth
Your dentist assesses your mouth and takes measurements, an impression or a scan to plan a denture. Ask about the proposed design and follow-up arrangements.
Allow time to adjust
Eating and speaking can take practice. Softer foods may help initially. A denture that slips, clicks, hurts or becomes damaged needs a dental review rather than an at-home adjustment.
Keep the routine gentle
Clean dentures using the method your dentist recommends. Remove them overnight unless your dentist advises otherwise. Continue caring for your gums and remaining teeth, and attend check-ups even when you wear a full denture.
Questions to bring
- What type of denture suits my mouth?
- What adjustments and follow-up are included?
- How should I clean and store this material?
