Problems with Dentures

When comfort, function, and confidence begin to slip.

Holistic Solutions for Comfortable, Natural-Looking Dentures

Dr. Paul O’Malley leads one of Los Angeles’ most advanced holistic and biomimetic dental practices. Based in Encino and serving patients across the greater Los Angeles area, he helps individuals who struggle with the daily challenges of traditional dentures find lasting, natural solutions through precision restorative care. While dentures have long been a standard replacement for missing teeth, many patients quickly discover that they come with physical limitations and emotional frustrations. At Dr. O’Malley’s practice, these concerns are addressed through modern, biologically compatible alternatives that restore not just your smile, but your confidence, health, and quality of life.

Why Traditional Dentures Fall Short

Conventional dentures rest on the gums rather than anchoring into the jaw. Over time, this design can cause bone loss, discomfort, and instability that affect eating, speaking, and appearance. Common Problems with Traditional Dentures:

Slipping or shifting while speaking or chewing
Gum irritation and sore spots from friction
Changes in facial structure due to bone resorption
Difficulty eating certain foods
Muffled or unclear speech
Frequent need for adhesives or adjustments
Feelings of self-consciousness or embarrassment in social settings

What begins as a functional solution can quickly turn into a daily struggle for comfort and confidence.

The Hidden Health Effects of Poorly Fitting Dentures

Beyond the surface discomfort, ill-fitting dentures can lead to more serious oral and systemic health issues.

These challenges not only affect how you look and feel but also how your body functions every day. Dr. O’Malley’s holistic approach addresses both the mechanical and biological factors behind these issues, offering long-term relief rooted in precision and preservation.

Potential Long-Term Effects:

Bone loss in the jaw due to lack of stimulation
Accelerated aging of facial features as bone support diminishes
Digestive problems from inadequate chewing
Gum inflammation or infection from trapped bacteria
Speech difficulties that impact social and professional interactions
