When to get replacement dentures
Dentists recommended getting new dentures every 5-8 years, but this can vary for many reasons. For example, wear and tear, changes to your mouth, the number of repairs that have been required, and a range of other factors could all have an effect. Often, we find that there’s something we can do to avoid the need to replace a set of dentures.

Replacement denture advice
If you do need to replace your dentures, it’s a great opportunity to make sure that you’ve chosen the best options for you – after all, a lot may have changed in the field since you got your last set! No matter what you choose, you may find it takes time to adjust to the new set – they will feel different. It’s important to keep up your old cleaning and hygiene routine in order to keep your new dentures in great condition. If you’re finding it more difficult to eat or speak with your new dentures, this is normal – for eating, start with small pieces of soft foods, and for speaking, just practise! You’ll soon find that you’ve adapted to your new dentures and are able to carry on as normal.
