Typically, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laithdentistry.com\/dentures.html\">prosthetics<\/a> can last up to eight years, but this ultimately can vary from person to person. What signs should you look for that it\u2019s time to replace your dentures in San Antonio? Continue reading to find out from an experienced dentist.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>The Dentures Feel Loose and are Subject to Falling Out<\/h2>\n<p>A properly fitting set of dentures can be held in place by the suction that\u2019s created inside your mouth. This is made possible by the snug fit between the dentures and gums.<\/p>\n<p>Because your jaw can shift over time and the dentures can become worn, they may no longer fit the same way, which can lead to them falling out your mouth. This is a clear sign that the dentures either need to be adjusted or replaced. In the meantime, dental adhesive can be used to secure them.<\/p>\n<h2>It\u2019s Difficult to Speak with the Dentures<\/h2>\n<p>Loose fitting dentures are usually difficult to speak with and can make it harder for others to understand you. In some instances, an adjustment can help, but the remedy is often to have them replaced.<\/p>\n<h2>You\u2019re Experiencing Discomfort<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s typical to experience some discomfort when you first receive a set of dentures. However, after the initial adjustment period (around a month), the pain should subside. Beyond this point, if you\u2019re feeling discomfort, it\u2019s likely a sign of worn dentures or a gum health issue.<\/p>\n<h2>The Dentures are Damaged or Discolored<\/h2>\n<p>If your dentures have noticeable damage, like chips or cracks, or one or more teeth have loosened, this should be considered a red flag that the dentures need to be replaced. You should also pay attention to any discoloration of the teeth.<\/p>\n<p>This can be expected if you frequently drink coffee, wine or tea. That\u2019s because porcelain is quite similar in texture and appearance to your tooth enamel. Thus, in many ways, it can be subject to the same types of stains.<\/p>\n<h2>Don\u2019t Hesitate to Seek Help<\/h2>\n<p>If you notice any of the above issues, then you shouldn\u2019t hesitate to bring it to your dentist\u2019s attention. The sooner you\u2019re examined, the quicker a plan of action can be created to rectify the problem and provide you with a fully functional set of prosthetics. By being proactive, you won\u2019t have to miss out on the natural joys of life that you\u2019ve become accustomed to with your dentures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Racha W.
