My dentures are many years old and although I use adhesives, I am weary of the bad odour and the mess in my mouth. Would implants help?
Adhesives require renewal especially after some foods, somewhat embarrassing when it has to be renewed in a restaurant toilet. Coughing, laughing and sneezing are other spontaneous moments of potential theatre. Often times, the unstable wearer (sic) laughs unconsciously with their hand in front of their mouth, or just grimaces rather than risk their denture catapulting into their host s cleavage. Once their food arrives, 1 in 3-denture wearers will have ordered soft food. Sad and unnecessary. Odour from a denture is from the porous plastic, which like a dishwashing cloth absorbs food and bacteria. Implants with ceramic surfaced crowns are impervious and, as there is no pink plastic, sweeter to the nose.
