Many older people know the problem: much effort have dentist and dental technician made the prosthesis and adapted. But after a short time patients get the impression that the dentures are not kept properly, or they complain of pressure pain. A psychological problem? Or is there more to it?
course, a prosthesis is compared to the natural teeth of a huge incision dar. patients often feel the artificial teeth as a foreign body. Then the patient sits in a few days, weeks or months in the dental chair, complaining about a perfect fit despite feeling pressure and pain. For a complete denture to get used to a certain degree is normal. A light Feeling of pressure and acclimatization difficulty speaking and eating generally leave after some time.
full dentures jaw stress differently
The prosthesis strain on the jaw bone other than your own teeth. Normally, the teeth of the print run during chewing so that a stimulus for the conservation of the jaw bone is thrown. In a full prosthesis is only the oral mucosa between dental and bone. The result of chewing pressure is transmitted through the oral mucosa to the jaw. By this unnatural stress builds up the jaw bone is slowly and imperceptibly at first. The prosthesis loses over time the good fit, however, the process runs at each from different people. Some patients may lose the prosthesis after a few months that they are secure. Others wear their dentures even after several years without complaints. The more precise the denture is made, the more evenly distributed pressure on the mouth and jaw. However, it does cause the jaw bone is broken down. Thus, the chewing pressure is distributed unequally. In places that are taxed higher, they form the back bone faster. should
Subsequent adjustments are possible even with artificial teeth
visiting the dentist twice a year are the rule. In this case, the dentist can examine the fit of the denture to these processes to recognize and act in time to meet. By lining the cavities formed can be compensated by the bone loss. Thus, the prosthesis is sitting evenly on the jaw and a secure fit is guaranteed.
adhesive also prevent pressure sores
liable Typically, the prosthesis by the salivary film on the oral mucosa. Adhesive can - especially when the prosthesis is worn for the first time - provide additional security. They are also helpful in complicated jaw relationships, or if too little saliva is produced. Adhesive form with source materials, a thin, elastic cushion under the prosthesis. It also prevents from dents and seals the prosthesis edge. Thus enter as less food remains under the prosthesis.
What to do if it pushes
Existing bruising and inflammation of the dentist should always be presented. Mostly, the problem can be solved with a few measures. Only in exceptional cases, medication or ointments are used in dental arrangement. Not only the regular checkup at the dentist but also the timely presentation to prevent problems that result from harmless bruising or oral mucosa a malignant tumor. A dental examination is therefore always a cancer screening.
