Why You Might Be Experiencing Upper Denture Problems

Upper denture problems can arise from various factors, including:

  • Poor Fit: Over time, your gums and jawbone can change shape, possibly leading to a poor fit. This can cause discomfort and instability.

  • Bone Loss: Without natural teeth, the jawbone can shrink, resulting in loose dentures.

  • Gum Irritation: Ill-fitting dentures can rub against the gums, causing sores and inflammation. More on sore gums from dentures.

  • Adhesive Issues: Relying heavily on adhesives can be messy and may not provide a reliable hold.

  • Eating Difficulties: Certain foods can cause dentures to shift or dislodge, making eating an unpleasant experience.

Solutions to Upper Denture Problems

So what can be done to fix these problems? There are a couple of temporary solutions you can try:

  1. Ensure you have the right fit. Jaw bone can deteriorate overtime, especially for those without any teeth to keep it strong. You may notice more upper denture problems over time as your fit changes and needs refitting.

  1. Speak and eat slowly. These can be difficult to do with dentures but as you slow down and take smaller bites, the practice may help with some problems.

  1. Tips for gagging with dentures - If you’re gagging because of your upper dentures, you’re not alone. Here are some tips if your dentures are gagging you.

While these solutions may help with some upper denture problems, they are by no means a permanent fix. 

It is also important to note that wearing dentures for extended periods of time can put you at risk for disqualifying from permanent solutions like dental implants. Over time, the bone in your jaw will deteriorate because there are no teeth roots to stimulate it and keep it strong.

This deterioration eventually leads to changes in the facial structure, the frequent need to refit or replace dentures, and can be very frustrating.

The solution to your denture problems will depend on which of the above you’re experiencing; however there is one solution to fix every problem with dentures, including the long term side effects like facial structure changes - that solution is permanent teeth in 24 hours.
