What is denture fitting?

Dentures are removable prosthetic devices that replace multiple missing teeth and surrounding gum tissue. Complete (full) dentures replace all teeth in an arch, while partial dentures fill gaps when some natural teeth remain. Modern dentures are custom-fitted, natural-looking, and far more comfortable than those of past generations.

What to expect during denture fitting

The denture process takes several weeks and multiple appointments. Impressions and measurements of your mouth are taken. A wax model is created for you to try in, allowing adjustments to fit, shape, and color. The final denture is fabricated in a dental lab. When delivered, your dentist makes final adjustments for comfort and bite. An adjustment period of several weeks is normal as your mouth adapts. Regular relines and adjustments help maintain fit as your gums and bone change over time.

Frequently asked questions about denture fitting

How much do dentures cost?
Complete dentures: $1,000–$8,000 per arch depending on materials and customization. Partial dentures: $700–$2,500. Premium implant-supported dentures: $8,000–$30,000 per arch. Basic dentures may be partially covered by insurance. Financing and dental discount plans can reduce costs.
How long does it take to get used to dentures?
Most people adapt within 2–4 weeks. Initial challenges include increased saliva flow, mild gagging sensation, and difficulty with certain foods. Start with soft foods cut into small pieces, practice speaking by reading aloud, and wear dentures consistently to speed adaptation. Report persistent sore spots to your dentist for adjustment.
Can I sleep with my dentures in?
It's recommended to remove dentures at night. This gives your gum tissue a chance to rest and recover, reduces the risk of fungal infections, and extends denture life. Soak dentures in water or a denture cleaning solution overnight to prevent them from drying out and warping.
How long do dentures last?
Dentures typically last 5–7 years before needing replacement. Your mouth naturally changes shape over time as bone resorbs, so dentures that once fit perfectly may become loose. Regular relines (reshaping the underside) every 1–2 years help maintain fit between replacements.
