How long does the infection in my mouth last for?
Q. Hi i just got dentures about 3 weeks ago and they still hurt abit when i chew my food. Is that normal? and also i have a infection on the roof of my mouth my dentist gave me this medication called nystatin ointment to put inside my denture it doesn’t taste very good i gag everytime i use it. how long does the infection usually last for. Thanks
A. Nystatin treats fungal infections. In general fungal infections tend to require prolonged treatments.
If you are new to dentures a small ammonut of discomfort is normal, if this continues for more than 2 weeks I would return to your dentist for further assesment.
