Cancer Treatment is a team oriented approach with your Oncologist the Team leader. He/She is most qualified, experienced and knowledgeable to best direct your care. Always check for their advice regarding treatment. Have your oral health checked and any treatment completed if at all possible before starting treatment.
Dentures rarely remain snugly fitting for extended periods due to the changes in our mouth. Loose dentures allow space for food and liquid particles to become trapped creating an environment for significant bacterial growth which causes irritation and infection. Reducing unnecessary risk to a compromised immune system is crucial to our overall health. Loose dentures cause irritation and lesions and ulceration and can quickly create issues with eating and chewing. Temporary soft lining has inert material and may relieve irritated tissues during treatment.
(Professional denture cleaning may help provide relief, quick and cost effective.)
Dry mouth compromises our oral tissues. A moist mouth allows us to combine our food with saliva to swallow, talk and sleep. Frequent sips or sprays of water in the mouth helps during the day. A moisturising gel may be recommended and it also can be useful when applied under dentures to help maintain a seal to keep them in position.
