Can I have uncomfortable denture replaced?

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010
Q.
Hi there, I suffer from gum recession and it is likely that I will eventually lose my teeth; due to periodontic problems. I just had two teeth out and have had a partial denture fitted on a plate. Whilst the denture looks good, the plate in the roof of my mouth feels so awful. Bulky etc. It cost me £400. When my gums heal, then is it right that I will have to have another one made? again loads more money.
