“Can dentures cause gum infection?”
I wear dentures. Can dentures cause gum infection?

The denture can cause gum irritation if the fit is not correct.
It is possible to get a gingival infection caused by your dentures. Are your dentures ill fitting? Do you gently clean your gum tissues with a soft toothbrush?
Do you brush your dentures at least 2 times per day? Soaking your dentures is not sufficient to gut down the bacterial load that is on the denture. See a dentist to address the issue.
