If you\u2019re new to dentures, there might be some questions about whether you can kiss or what to expect. Do you have to do anything particular to keep them from falling out? To get you ready and confident for your date, here are a few tips for kissing with dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Have Well-Fitted Dentures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be feeling self-conscious about your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierdentalvero.com\/dentures-partials.html\">dentures<\/a>, and you would want to be as discreet as possible. To do so, you want your prosthetic to be well-fitted. The better the fit, the less likely they are to shift or slip out. You can use denture adhesive in the morning to ensure they remain secure in your mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another good idea is to practice talking and smiling. You\u2019ll want to recognize the kinds of movements that could potentially dislodge your dentures Additionally, you can plan on which foods would be best to eat for your prosthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re still concerned about them slipping, you can consider upgrading to implant dentures! These are fixed in the mouth by way of prosthetic tooth roots, providing you a secure fit for many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Sure Your Dentures Are Clean<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a good dental hygiene routine is always the best way to an attractive, healthy smile. Even with your dentures, you\u2019ll reduce the risk of bacteria developing by brushing them twice daily with a denture cleaning solution and soaking them overnight. This helps keep them from drying out or changing their shape. It also doesn\u2019t hurt to make sure your breath is minty-fresh for date night!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Be Gentle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With implant dentures, you wouldn\u2019t have any problems when kissing. If you do have traditional prosthetics, there are a few things to keep in mind when kissing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Try to pucker your lips slightly, keeping them soft as to not apply too much pressure or suction on your dentures.<\/li><li>It\u2019s fine if you want to French kiss, but the key is being gentle and soft.<\/li><li>Avoid banging your dentures against your date\u2019s teeth to keep from dislodging your prosthetic.<\/li><li>Stay relaxed! The date is supposed to be fun, so you should enjoy the little moments. Kissing with your dentures just takes a little practice.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Though kissing with dentures might feel overwhelming in the beginning, you\u2019ll get the hang of it over time, and you may well find it quite pleasant. After preparing with good oral hygiene and a well-fitted prosthetic, the rest comes to simply being gentle and enjoying yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Premier Dental is run by husband-wife team\u2014Dr. Adam Jones, DMD, MS and Dr. Giuliana Diaz Jones, DDS.
