This English guide presents the key points of the original Korean article. Individual diagnosis and treatment choices require an examination.
Common signs of poor fit
A denture may lift while speaking or chewing, rub one spot repeatedly, click, affect speech or require more adhesive than before. These details help identify how it moves.
Why can fit change?
The underlying gums and bone may change over time. Wear, changes in remaining teeth and the bite can also alter how a denture fits, even if it was comfortable years ago.
What should you bring?
Note where it hurts, when it becomes loose and whether there are persistent sores. Bring the denture for an examination. Repeated wounds or an inability to eat should not be ignored.
