The key to being able to eat with false teeth is having your teeth fit your mouth and gums properly. Any gaps that exist between the dentures and your gums can make for an uncomfortable dining experience.
Instructions
Get a Good Fit
1. Pay attention to how your dentures fit your mouth. If you feel any looseness or find your teeth uncomfortable; contact your dentist immediately.
2. Have your dentures relined or replaced when they no longer fit. Dentures should be reevaluated every year for a fit that doesn’t impact your eating habits.
3. Use a good denture adhesive if you plan on eating foods that would normally tug at natural teeth. Apples, corn on the cob and other foods that require a chomping tooth action require that adhesive be used to hold the false teeth into place.
4. Cut your foods into bite size pieces if your false teeth are not perfectly fitted. This will make chewing much easier and less stressful on the fit of your dentures.
