I got dentures because they were a LOT cheaper than dental implants. I think that was a mistake. Not only do they not look great, but they’re uncomfortable. Can this be improved?

Rubi,
You’re not the only one who feels this way about their dentures. Though dentures will never be as comfortable as dental implants, you’re not destined to be in pain. Your dentist can adjust the dentures in order to make them more comfortable. However, the aesthetics are something else.
In order to change their appearance, your dentures will have to be completely re-done. I know that doubles your expense, so you may not be too keen on it.
If you do decide to have them re-done, going to the same dentist is not likely to yield different results. You’ll want to go to a more artistic dentist if you want more natural looking dentures.
Your best bet is someone who is AACD accredited.
