Adapting to new set of dentures can be quite challenging for some patients. How early you can adapt to new dentures depends on
• Health of your oral cavity • when and why teeth were lost • Quantity and quality of your jaw bone • Muscles health • Your overall general health (medical conditions) • Your emotional well being • And most importantly, your psychological willingness to adapt to this major change in your life.
Behavioural adaptation to complete dentures is a complex neurological process requiring acquisition of new motor skills to use dentures while eating and speaking. Our Denture specialists are part of this habituation process and will guide you at all steps during adjustment phase.
