Speak slowly: When you first get dentures, it may be challenging to speak properly initially. Be patient. Practice saying the challenging words loud and speak gradually. If your dentures move around when you laugh or smile, gently bite down and swallow to put them back in place. Check with your dentist if there is a need to adjust the fit.
Eat soft foods: Eat food i.e. soft in consistency. Avoid hard and sticky food. When you chew, use both sides of your mouth at the same time. This prevents your dentures from either moving forward or tipping.
Use an adhesive Denture adhesives can help the dentures to stay in place. But, denture adhesives should not be used to fix either old or poorly fitting dentures and should generally be avoided. When using an adhesive, follow the instructions carefully. Use only a small amount of it.
Make sure your dentures fit:Over time, the ridge contour can change, such that dentures may not fit well. This could be an indication for denture to be adjusted, modified, or replaced by your dentist. Never try to adjust dentures by yourself.
