Can Dentures Affect Nutrition?

Wearing dentures can have an impact on nutrition if the dentures are ill-fitting and cause patients to have trouble chewing. Ill-fitting dentures can also decrease saliva, which may make chewing food difficult and may cause patients to avoid certain foods. It’s important for people who wear dentures to follow their physician’s or denturist’s dietary recommendations after they have been fitted with their dentures, and to keep in mind that many foods can still be eaten if prepared in ways that make chewing easier. Ensuring dentures fit well is also important, so see your denturist regularly to get them checked.
