One challenge you will face with your new dentures is becoming comfortable with speaking once again. While this goes away, it’s best to practice reading and speaking aloud as much as possible to ease the transition. If you find yourself salivating excessively, sucking on mints can help.

So, what are dentures, and how do they fit in my mouth? Dentures are prosthetic false teeth and gums that are meant to replace missing teeth. They are held in place by the surrounding tissues of your oral cavity, and they look real.

Dentures can help you speak more clearly, but it does take a little bit of practice. Try reading out loud, and repeat problematic words until you feel comfortable saying them.

Did you know that complete dentures can last for 10 years or more when well cared for? In fact, this type of denture is also the most comfortable, as it is custom-fitted to your own particular mouth and bite. The custom fitting process takes into account every contour of your face and mouth while smiling, laughing, and eating.
