Question 1

Why do my dentures keep coming loose?

Accepted Answer

Your mouth naturally changes shape over time as bone and gums reabsorb. Dentures that once fitted perfectly will gradually lose suction. Depending on condition, they can be relined or adjusted, or it may be time for a new set.

Question 2

Why do my dentures hurt when I eat?

Accepted Answer

Pain while chewing usually indicates uneven pressure points or loose dentures rubbing against gum tissue. A quick clinical adjustment or soft reline can relieve pressure spots immediately.

Question 3

Can you make my dentures fit tighter?

Accepted Answer

Yes! A professional reline coats the fitting surface of your existing denture with fresh acrylic to match your current gum contour, restoring tightness and grip.

Question 4

Do I really need new dentures, or can my old ones be fixed?

Accepted Answer

If the teeth are severely worn down or the base is cracked repeatedly, a replacement gives better bite height and facial aesthetics. If teeth are intact, a reline or repair may be all you need.

Question 5

Will my dentures look natural?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Chris Mansour uses premium layered teeth and custom shading to reflect your natural age, skin tone, and smile shape so nobody can tell you are wearing dentures.

Question 6

How long does it take to get used to eating with new dentures?

Accepted Answer

Most patients adapt within 2 to 4 weeks. Starting with softer foods and chewing evenly on both sides helps condition your jaw muscles.

Question 7

Do you offer emergency same-day denture repairs?

Accepted Answer

Yes! At Dentures Pro Studio Bossley Park and our partner clinics, we offer urgent same-day repairs for broken dentures, cracked acrylic, or dislodged teeth.

Question 8

Do I need a doctor or dentist referral to see a Dental Prosthetist?

Accepted Answer

No referral is needed! As a registered Dental Prosthetist, Chris Mansour can examine, consult, and treat you directly.
