What causes cheek biting when using removable denture?
Cheek biting when using removable dentures can occur due to improper fit, which may cause the denture to shift during chewing, leading to accidental contact with the cheeks. Additionally, inadequate occlusion or alignment of the bite can result in misalignment of the upper and lower jaws, increasing the risk of cheek trauma. New denture wearers may also experience this as they adjust to the appliance, as they might not yet have developed the muscle memory for proper chewing techniques. Regular adjustments by a dental professional can help mitigate this issue.
