Dentures are one of the most popular solutions for tooth loss \u2013 and there\u2019s a very good reason for that. Not only will allow you to enjoy a complete and fully functioning smile once again, but they\u2019ll help restore your confidence as well. Of course, you must keep in mind that they\u2019re not a permanent method of tooth replacement. You must take proper care of them to prevent them from becoming ill-fitting. Otherwise, it could lead to serious problems down the line. In this blog post, we\u2019ll explain six complications that can arise from ill-fitting dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Irritated, Swollen, Inflamed Gums<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you continue wearing ill-fitting dentures<\/a>, they can rub against your gum tissue in unnatural ways. Eventually, it will lead to irritation and inflammation. The unnecessary friction and pressure against your gums can also cause swelling, making it easier for your oral tissues to become injured while wearing dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blisters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When your dentures rub against certain areas in your mouth, blisters may begin to develop. Even though it\u2019s simply the body\u2019s way of protecting affected tissues, it can cause extreme discomfort. If you develop an infection, your blisters may grow and multiply, leading to other painful complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Difficulty Speaking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As you can imagine, it\u2019s difficult to speak normally when your teeth are slipping and sliding around your mouth. For that reason, ill-fitting dentures should be addressed right away. Not only can they make social situations a bit awkward, but they can cause people to develop a lisp or other speech impediment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Headaches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Believe it or not, headaches are a common side effect of ill-fitting dentures. When your mouth hurts, your jaw hurts, which then causes your head to hurt. Since many people don\u2019t realize the two problems are related, they often continue to suffer in silence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Damage to Pre-Existing Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your partial dentures are not secured to your mouth properly, they can grate on your natural teeth, resulting in discomfort and thinner tooth enamel. You may even experience chips or cracks, which can lead to more issues down the line. By failing to treat any damage to your natural teeth, you increase your risk of decay and gum disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trouble Eating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wearing ill-fitting dentures can make it difficult to eat certain foods. As a result, you\u2019ll find it challenging to enjoy your meals and maintain a balanced diet. It\u2019s also easier for food to become trapped between your gums and dentures, increasing your risk of issues like decay, gum disease, and infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you experiencing any of these complications? Don\u2019t hesitate to contact your dentist in Carrollton for a solution. They\u2019ll readjust your dentures to help you enjoy a problem-free smile once again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
