Indeed, a majority of Americans over the age of 55 wear full or partial dentures, according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. However, just like a car needs the right level of oil and gas to keep running smoothly, dentures also must fit properly in one\u2019s mouth to feel comfortable and function properly. Do your dentures frequecntly <g class=\"gr_ gr_27 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"27\" data-gr-id=\"27\">slipp<\/g> in your mouth? Keep reading to learn how to achieve outstanding stability and superior denture comfort in Ocala. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Dentures? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dentures are a set of artificial teeth and gums that can help individuals who have a lost a significant number of teeth to eat, speak and smile with confidence. Both full and partial dentures are custom-made from hard resin and acrylic to match the size, shape <g class=\"gr_ gr_6 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation only-ins replaceWithoutSep\" id=\"6\" data-gr-id=\"6\">and<\/g> color of a patient&#8217;s natural teeth and gums. Although not as strong as natural teeth, a denture in Ocala is a reliable and popular tooth replacement solution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs Your Dentures Do Not Fit Properly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dentures are not the right size or shape for your mouth it can lead to considerable discomfort. Here are 3 signs of poorly-fitting dentures: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Gagging<\/strong>\n\u2013 Dentures that are slightly too big often contact the throat more than usual, triggering\nthe gag reflex. <\/li><li><strong>Slippage<\/strong>\n\u2013 Dentures that do not fit snugly in the mouth may slip when eating or even just\nwhen smiling. Frequent slippage may be a sign that your dentures need to be\nrelined or replaced. <\/li><li><strong>Persistent\nPain<\/strong> \u2013 Dentures that fit unevenly in the mouth cause an uneven balance of\nbite forces, which can make it painful to chew food. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How a Dentist Can Help <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you consistently experience any of the above problems, schedule a visit to your dentist. A dental professional can help eliminate denture-related trouble by: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Expertly applying dental adhesive to your\ndenture and gums<\/li><li>Relining an ill-fitting denture to better fit\nthe shape of your mouth<\/li><li>Remaking an old denture that has worn down over\ntime<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Implant-Supported Dentures? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For patients who consistently struggle with or worry about denture slippage and other similar problems, implant-supported permanent dentures can offer superior stability for replacement teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike a regular denture, which rests on the gums,\nimplant-supported dentures are attached to and supported by titanium implants placed\nin the jawbone beneath the gums. By mimicking the natural tooth root structure,\ndental implants in Ocala can provide maximum support to permanent dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Candidates for this type of restorative dentistry solution\nmust have enough bone in the jaw to support implants. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Achieve the comfortable, confident smile you deserve with properly-fitting dentures and implant-supported dentures in Ocala. Talk to a dentist today to find out which option is best for you to restore your smile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Daniel Weldon is dedicated to providing superior dental care to individuals and families in Ocala, the community that he calls home.
