Dentures<\/a> are a popular, affordable solution to restore your smile! They have helped millions of Americans continue to look, eat, and speak normally after tooth loss. Not only that, but with the right care and maintenance they can last up to 10 years!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dentures are not infallible, though. You might be wondering what signs to look for that let you know it\u2019s time. Keep reading to learn about 4 signs that your dentures need to be replaced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Sign #1: They Don\u2019t Fit Well Anymore<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Over time, you might notice that your dentures start falling out more frequently. Our bodies begin to reabsorb bone mass after tooth loss because nothing is there to continue to stimulate the jaw. As a result, our facial structure starts to change. Your dentures were custom-fitted to your teeth before these changes took place, so it\u2019s natural that at some point you would need to have them relined or changed out for new ones. If your dentures are sliding out of place more frequently, that\u2019s a clear sign that you need to have them checked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sign #2: They\u2019ve Become Irritating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If there\u2019s pain when you bite or chew, it could be because your dentures aren\u2019t fitting as well. If they aren\u2019t in their correct position, the repetitive movements cause them to rub against your gums or mouth. This can lead to sores that are vulnerable to bacteria and infection. If you\u2019re feeling pain when you wear your dentures, you should call the dentist as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sign #3: They\u2019re Discolored<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Even if you don\u2019t have issues with your dentures staying in place, you might be displeased with the way they look. If your false teeth have become yellow, faded, or stained then you\u2019ve probably had them a while and could use a fresh set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sign #4: They\u2019re Broken<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although dentures are sturdy, they can be cracked, chipped, or warped. Damage to your dentures calls for replacements. Not only can they become dislodged, but the cracks also allow germs to thrive. Then you\u2019ll be battling bad breath and slippery dental gear!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you find flaws in your dentures it can be tempting to want to fix them yourself. It\u2019s always best to have your dentist take a look, though. They have access to professional instruments and materials to repair your dentures. If they think the damage is too extensive, it could just be time to start fresh with a new set!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
