Procedure Overview
The procedure for getting dentures is relatively simple but may take multiple appointments. First, your dentist takes a mold or scan of your gums and any remaining teeth. We will make a model of your mouth from this mold to create a denture that fits every small ridge and contour of your jawbone and gums. Your dentist will invite you back to try on your dentures and ensure they fit comfortably and securely. If the fit is good, you can start wearing your new dentures. If not, your dentist will make adjustments until they fit perfectly.

Signs You May Need Dentures

- Severe Tooth Pain or Decay: Persistent tooth pain or extensive decay that cannot be addressed through other dental procedures may indicate the need for dentures.
- Difficulty Chewing: Problems with chewing or persistent discomfort while eating can be a sign of tooth loss and may require dentures to improve function.
- Changes in Speech: Changes in speech patterns or difficulty pronouncing certain words may result from missing teeth, suggesting a need for dentures to restore speech clarity.

What Foods Can You Eat With Dentures in Palmdale, CA?
Adjusting to eating with new dentures takes a little practice, but most patients are soon enjoying a wide variety of foods again. In the first days, stick to softer options like soups, yogurt, eggs, and well-cooked vegetables, and cut food into smaller pieces. As you grow more confident, you can gradually reintroduce firmer foods, chewing slowly and using both sides of your mouth for balance. Very sticky or hard items are best approached with caution. Dr. Ramy can share tips to make mealtimes comfortable.
Do Dentures Change the Shape of Your Face?
Many patients are surprised to learn how closely tooth loss and facial appearance are connected. When teeth are missing, the jawbone can shrink over time, which may cause the cheeks to look sunken and the face to appear older. Well-fitted dentures help support the facial muscles and restore natural contours, often giving a fuller, more youthful look. Over the years, your dentures may need adjusting to keep that support as your mouth changes. At Exceptional Dentistry, we design dentures with both function and facial harmony in mind.
Can You Still Get Cavities With Dentures?
The dentures themselves are made from artificial materials, so they can’t develop cavities the way natural teeth do. However, if you wear partial dentures, your remaining natural teeth are still very much at risk for decay and gum disease, especially around the clasps where plaque can collect. Keeping those teeth and your gums clean is essential. Daily brushing, denture cleaning, and regular checkups at Exceptional Dentistry all help protect your smile and keep both your natural teeth and your dentures in great shape.
