Re: What apple can you bite into with your denture... - Page 2

You can eat any apple if you cut it up. I don't have dentures but I cut up all my apples, just easier.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

Never found a 'need' to bite into a whole apple!

Winesap and MacIntosh are soft and should work well with dentures. Granny Smith might work too.

I don't have dentures, but biting into hard apples is like scraping my fingernails over glass. Can't stand it. Those very hard red delicious drive me nuts.

I don't know why your husband wants to bite into an apple. Especially with dentures! My mother has had dentures since she was 26 years old. They are such a perfect fit, she never needed adhesives. BUT....she did somehow lose a tooth on the side once from eating something hard (I think it was a sourball!) Yes...a sourball!

I have my own teeth and probably haven't bitten into an apple since I was in my twenties. Why tempt fate? I don't want to lose or chip or break a tooth and dentures can also break.

Just tell him to cut it up. It's really no hassle to cut up an apple unless your on a ferris wheel or something....lol

I've had Fillings, upon Fillings, & Root Canals, & Crowns, Fillings in Crowns, & Crowning my Crowns since I was very young.

(I tell ppl, I'm worth $1 MILLION, and it's ALL IN MY MOUTH!)

As such, I dont recall EVER biting into an Apple whole; It would put undue pressure on my teeth, no matter real, dentures or not.

Visiting any kind of dentist/dental work fixer is my worst nightmare' I've had more than a 2+ lifetimes of numerous visits to various "teeth fix'ers." so I dont want to look a "gift 'tooth repairer' in the ofc/chair." So I dont bite into apples whole.

The only ppl I've seen bite into apples whole is commercials selling "Tooth Implants," which so far, I consider quite dubious *& expensive." I mean *NOW* drilling into my jaw bones?? C'mon!

I prefer "HONEYCRISP" (correction!)" brand of apples, for delicous taste & firmness.

I cut them up, and sprinkle them with straight cinnamon (w/ no refined sugar) and they are incredibly delicious treats.

BTW. they have Apple Corer tools that supposedly make apple coring really fast, one swipe. I cut/core mine by hand, tho, still fast.

Good luck. Happy "no dentist visits!" Good question, btw @Mindy D

I dont even have denuires but never bite into hard fruits like that, I cut in small pieces.

Golden Delicious with peanut butter.

After multiple root canals, I haven't bitten into an apple since I was a teenager. I don't chomp ice, eat sticky, gummy, or caramel candies, no peanut brittle, limited nuts, and consume very little popcorn.
