Risks & Recovery
Dentures are a removable option for replacing missing teeth, and like all dental appliances, they have risks and recovery considerations.
Possible risks include:
- Initial gum irritation or soreness while adjusting to the fit
- Difficulty with speech or chewing during the adaptation period
- Risk of breakage or wear if dropped or exposed to excessive force
- Over time, changes in the jawbone may affect the fit and require relining or replacement
Recovery considerations:
- Adjustment may take several weeks as the mouth adapts to the appliance
- Speech and eating improve gradually with practice
- Good hygiene and proper cleaning are essential to prevent infections such as oral thrush
- Regular dental visits are recommended to monitor fit and oral health
