Having well-fitted and functioning dentures can significantly enhance your quality of life by enabling you to eat, speak, and smile with ease and confidence. However, over time, your dentures may lose their fit and function due to factors such as wear and tear, changes in oral structure, and changes in denture material. If you have been wearing your dentures for five or more years, it may be time for a checkup. In this blog post, we will explain why you should have your existing dentures checked by our complete denturists at Community Denture Centre in Penticton or Oliver.
