Can you chew gum with dentures?

dentures gretna | couple smilingYou can chew gum with dentures and even blow bubbles.

However, we recommend sampling a few brands and choosing the one that doesn’t stick to your prosthetic. Fortunately, many gum brands do not stick!

Dentures cannot get tooth decay, but if you have a partial, you might consider sugarless gum to keep your supporting teeth healthy and cavity-free.

Gum can help keep the mouth hydrated by stimulating salivary glands.

About Dentures in Gretna, LA

At Nola Dentures and General Dentistry, we offer full-service dental care but particularly emphasize tooth replacement options like dentures.

We offer complete dentures, partial dentures, cast-metal partials, 3-D printed dentures, and even next-day dentures for your convenience! We can also create an implant denture—a denture connected to the jaw with dental implants—for a more stable solution to tooth loss.  

The dentist can review the various options with you, explaining the benefits and helping you decide on the best denture type for your needs, goals, and budget.
