At first, you were on top of the world, but that was a few years ago. Now\nyour dentures are starting to not fit as well as they used to. What should you\ndo in this situation? Read more below to find out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visit Your Dentist First <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever you find that an oral appliance you\u2019re wearing,\nsuch as dentures, doesn\u2019t fit quite as well as it used to, you should visit\nyour dentist first and foremost. They are, after all, the expert on your dental\nsituation. Just call them and let them know that your dentures don\u2019t fit like they\nused to, and they should get you in for an appointment as soon as they can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting New Dentures <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dentures typically require a refitting, also known as a\nreline, every five to ten years. This is because the gum tissue and underlying\njawbone change shape with time as a result of tooth loss. The jawbone\neventually shrinks, causing the dentures to not fit right after some time.\nFortunately, most dental insurance plans cover the cost of new dentures at\nleast once every five years. Your dentist can easily take impressions of your\ngums and design a brand-new set of dentures to fit you perfectly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Replace Your Dentures with Dental Implants &nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dentures are a great way to replace your missing pearly whites,\nbut they don\u2019t have to be the only way. Thanks to dental implants in Casper,\nyou can receive a set of dentures that never slip around or fit improperly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With implant-retained dentures, your dentist can strategically\nplace four to six dental implants throughout your jawbone. Even if you have\nexperienced bone loss due to missing teeth, you can still receive these\nimplants, because the ones toward the back of the mouth are inserted at a 45-degree\nangle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the implants have fully integrated into your jawbone, you\ncan receive a denture that clasps onto the implants. This means no more\nunexpected slippage or incorrect fitting. Your new teeth can fit for decades,\nor possibly even for the rest of your life if you take good care of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having improperly fitting dentures isn\u2019t the end of the\nworld. Just visit your dentist, and they\u2019ll determine what the best course of\naction is to get your new teeth fitting correctly again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Erin Prach earned her doctorate from the University of\nColorado\u2019s School of Dental Medicine.
