Hello Heather I just found you here and you are the most and best infomred on how to eat realfood with dentures. I have full dentures and I was looking to see what is the best way to each with full dentures. Eating on both sides . Thank you. Also the information on waiting 30-45 mins. Today I started using a product called Densurefit and it worked to help keep my teeth secure and I ate about half my dinner first time. Now I know more from you and will continue with baby steps and eating real food chewing on both sides. Thank you.

Densurefit is the best soft reline ever. I use that and never need adhesive. Amazing product. Takes time to master a soft reline doing it yourself. I'm so happy you were able to have a better day and it helped you! That is absolutely amazing! Yes their are many tricks to eats. But gotta always have a great fitting denture 💜💜

Remember security of denture is the most important part. It should not move whatsoever. If you have a loose denture and you had a loose denture from the start that's the dentist fault for making the denture poorly. It should have been very snug and tight. But remember it's going to hurt when you eat because it's fresh extractions but the more you eat the better it will be and it will toughen up your gums. But always eat with an even bite when you first start out with dentures

I'm so looking forward to eating again😍If it weren't for mashed potatoes and oatmeal I'd withered away by now😂 It's been years since I've been able to chew food due to broken teeth. I'm 7 days out until ED, scared but ready. Tbh, I'm more afraid of autoimmune kicking my butt as far as healing, I know you deal with the same health issues did you notice a delay in heal time?

I definitely try to stay away from the more chewier stuff like steaks and pork chops. Which pork chops are my favorite uhg. I refined my older dentures and got lucky a couple times where I could tare up corn on the cob. 😂 An other times I couldn’t. Not sure what I did right other then the reline I did I got lucky and it kept my bottoms holding good with the adhesive. Now I got my newer dentures last week and they seem to be a pain even trying to eat a sandwich. I don’t have much of a bottom gum so it’s a challenge. I got so use to my old ones that I want to wear them again and I think I wore them down to look square hahaha. My top denture seem to be to loose. I think I’ll experiment one more week and then call the dentist if I can’t feel confident in how they are working out for me.

If steaks are cooked correctly they aren't chewy. Only over cooked they are. Do a thin, super thin slice it melts in your mouth.

If your denture is loose and moving around without adhesive that means you need to soft rewind no adhesive will help you without one. That and if your tongue muscles are hitting your denture you need an adjustment since having a full bottom denture I realize that the biggest problem with bottom dentures is not having the right adjustment

Well it's not really a process because fixodent ultramax is the strongest adhesive. But self-reliners really need to be done once a month for the first year. Because having a fit hold of a denture is what prevents any adhesive from melting.

Yes that's bc of swelling. That don't last long. With in two weeks that all goes away. Happens to most people with immediate dentures bc swelling is between day 3-6. Those days are when their at the max swelling. Man that was hard. The first week and a half was bad for me. But the swelling goes down. Ibuprofen if you can take it and frozen peas help a lot. Don't keep adjusting bc when you do it will be really big when the swelling goes away

Well you can actually if you take small bites you can actually use your tongue to feel how much you've chewed it. So you can eat soft foods just got to take smaller bites and the more you learn to do it the better you get at it you can't just stop eating all together just take smaller bites and use your tongue before you swallow to make sure you chewed it all the way

@debbietaylor1807 do you not have dentures? Because if you just take small bites start with soft solid food and any food could be a soft solid food you can even use a slow cooker and that'll turn it into super soft even every meat in the world. But if you have dentures and you're choosing to use your tongue instead of your teeth that's going to be really hard on you and you can actually tear muscles in your tongue. So I always tell people small bites to start soft solid foods take your time and it'll eventually become so easy you can eat whatever you want
