Your new life with dentures may be full of many “what ifs.” They can cause anxiety and feelings of low self-confidence. At the Classic Denture Center, Portland denturist Tonya Poleon wants you to learn how to wear your dentures with confidence.

You may not be so sure of it now, but dentures can actually improve your facial appearance, self-confidence, help you speak better, and help you chew most foods with ease. When your dentures fit you right and the right adhesive is used, you can keep your dentures firmly in place and avoid embarrassing slip-ups.

It is important to keep your dentures clean with a soft or ultra-soft toothbrush. Once you have cleaned them thoroughly, refresh your mouth with an alcohol-free mouthwash. Always keep your dentures in a wet container when they are not in use.

In the beginning, life with dentures might be an experience full of question marks and “what-ifs,” but with time, you will become a denture “pro!” It is our goal to ensure that you feel entirely comfortable and confident when wearing your brand new dentures.
