Getting used to the look and feel of dentures takes time, and this is completely normal for many patients. Once you have been fitted with the pair of your choice, Dr. Maria X. Contreras and our team are happy to answer any questions you have before you head home. If you are still struggling with adjusting to new dentures, we recommend following these simple tips:
- Understand discomfort is part of the process.
- Consume soft foods and take small bites.
- Practice speaking or singing a fun tune.
- Switch to a different type of denture if needed.
- Avoid using a home-repair denture kit.
- Wear your dentures consistently throughout the day.
- Be sure to come in for routine oral examinations so we can keep track of how everything is looking.
If none of these tips are helpful, please contact our office to let us help you out! Our dentist and team are more than thrilled to work with you and possibly recommend other stable options if dentures are just not making the cut. Feel free to reach out to us with questions anytime during our hours by calling 951-302-4888 and scheduling an appointment here at The Dental Suite at Temecula.
We are proud to be a denture provider in Temecula, Murrieta, Winchester, French Valley, Manifee, Wildomar, Lake Elsinore and Escondido, California.
