Most dentures wearers have very few restrictions in their diets. A loose fitting dentures will cause the dentures to click or slip and may even impair your speech as long as the tongue attempts to hold the dentures in place. If you develop any persistent eating or speech problems at any time, have your Denturist check the fit of your dentures as soon as possible. Leaving the bottom denture out or only eating soft foods is not the answer. Teeth are necessary to chew your food to a point where your digestive system can process it efficiently. By swallowing half chewed food you are putting more stress on your digestive system, which can lead to bloating, indigestion, etc.

Properly fitted dentures may actually encourage you to eat a more varied and healthy diet which is important for your overall health as well as enjoy social interactions such as dining and speaking in public with confidence.
