I Have Worn Dentures For Over Fifty Years But I’m Not Happy With The Texture Of My New Flexible Dentures. Could I Have Them Polished?
Q.
Hi Mark. I currently have a top set (8 teeth) of flexible dentures, they have a strange texture and seem furry to me. They make eating most food quite an unpleasant experience. Can they be polished or are all flexible dentures like this? I have worn dentures for over fifty years so I am not a novice with dentures I have had several sets of cobalt dentures which I have been pleased with, but needing new dentures I have read good reports about the flexible dentures but now I really regret not going for the cobalt ones. Thank you for taking the time and listening to my problem.

Hello and thank you for getting in touch. If I was you I would ask the dentist and dental technician who provided the dentures for you to have a look and see what they can do. See if he can fix them. If you are still unhappy with them, why not go back to the cobalt dentures you feel comfortable with. I really hope this helps you. Best wishes, Dr Mark Hughes.
