Poorly Fitting Dentures? Here’s What You Can Do

If your dentures don’t fit like they used to, you’re not alone. Loose, painful, or unstable dentures are a common problem—especially as your mouth changes over time. In this helpful video, Dr. Alisa Kauffman, a leading expert in geriatric dentistry, explains how poorly fitting dentures can affect everything from nutrition to self-confidence—and what you can do to fix it.

Whether your dentures are shifting, clicking, or just not comfortable anymore, there are solutions that don’t involve suffering in silence.

👄 Why Dentures Stop Fitting Well

Dr. Kauffman highlights a few key reasons why dentures lose their fit:

• Natural bone loss over time

• Weight loss or illness that changes gum shape

• Worn-out materials in older dentures

• Lack of regular adjustments or relining

Poorly fitting dentures can cause sore spots, difficulty eating, and even jaw joint pain.

🛠️ What You Can Do About It

1. Get a Professional Denture Adjustment

A simple in-home adjustment can ease pressure points and stabilize your bite.

2. Schedule a Reline

If your gums have changed shape, a soft or hard reline can improve comfort and prolong the life of your current denture.

3. Consider Replacing Old Dentures

If your dentures are more than 5–7 years old, they may need to be replaced entirely—especially if adjustments no longer help.
