What is it like living with new upper dentures?


Please tell me about your experience with dentures as well as foods to eat when you first get your dentures.

is an impression for invisalign bad ? does it gag you?



Answers:
Practice, practice, practice. It takes time. If you sat down at a piano for the first time, you would not be playing classical music in a day. While I can not comment on the quality of your dentures, I can only hope that they are "just right" and that this is a matter of getting used to dentures.

Dentures are not a replacement for teeth. They are simply better than not HAVING teeth. They do take some patience on your part. You will have to start out with chewing smaller bites and trying to distribute the food a little to the left and a little to the right at the same time. You HAVE lost the taste of your food, because you have a lot of insulation in your mouth now. You probably taste half denture and half food. After a while, your sense of taste will return somewhat, but that too is an adjustment on your part.

I know that this is not very encouraging, but thousands of new denture wearers make the adjustments. If it takes a month or two, you will look back in a few years and say that it was hardly any time at all. It's just difficult to accept that while you are learning to use dentures for the first time.

Did that just happen?
