How do I ask about chewing problems if I live in Sinclair Park?+
Fill in the form on this page or phone (204) 338-3003 and mention that eating is your main concern. We would see you at 2358 McPhillips Street in Winnipeg after the clinic settles a time with you.
Will I get back all the foods I have given up?+
That cannot be promised. Greater stability may make some foods easier, while your chewing capacity continues to depend on the denture, its support, your bite and your adaptation.
Should I go straight back to tough foods once it is connected?+
Please follow the guidance you receive at that appointment rather than testing your limits straight away. Beginning as advised gives you time to adapt to the new appliance.
Why does my lower denture struggle more at meals?+
Movement can be more noticeable in the lower arch with a conventional denture. The shape of your mouth, saliva, muscle control and fit all play a part, and an examination can look at yours.
Do I still need to take it out after eating?+
Ask for specific advice on this when your routine is demonstrated. Daily removal and cleaning are part of the care, and any food that collects underneath is worth mentioning to us.
