I have discovered that gluten was in the products used to make my dentures. What's a person to do? Is there an ingredient that can replace the MMA? I have not been well since I started wearing them. But I refuse to not wear my dentures. 

Thanks for your input.

This would be a question for your dentist. There may be alternatives.

Have you found any solution?  I am in the same situation, I have Celiac, and after years of getting sicker I realized it was my dentures.  I have done exhaustive research, talked to my dentist who has also done extensive research, and asked numerous experts, but have found no other viable options.  I recently started going without my dentures and my symptoms have gradually decreasing and I am feeling better, but I really would like a solution as I am way too young to go out without teeth!

I don't know much about your situation, but is it possible you could go the implant route? I've heard that Medicare may cover the now, but am not sure.

Unfortunately implants are not an option for me, due to chronic health issues I was unable to get implants, so I had to opt for the dentures. (So grateful to be an 8 year pancreatic cancer survivor, but chemotherapy and complications from my Whipple surgery essentially deteriorated my teeth and my bone/ gum structure.)

I have not found any options for replacing my dentures. I wear them every day. But not feeling well. Always very tired is primary symptoms.

I may look into implants but that is very costly. And don't know if that's gluten free.

      That's a shame, but on another tack - if you are coeliac with digestive issues, such as constipation, you may find that as they settle that might help somewhat.  I've just had a quick read online and I see, for example, that constipation can exacerbate IC pain. https://www.healthline.com/health/constipation/interstitial-cystitis-and-constipation I suffer from pelvic pain and any digestive issues can greatly affect that.   It is like the extra pressure aggravates the nerves.

      Yes, I have. Unfortunately it did not help me. Thank you for your input.

      Hi @mswhis and welcome to the forum!   I don't have IC but have suffered with standard cystitis on and off for years.  I have found D Mannose helpful - have you tried it?   I know that some IC sufferers have said that it has been beneficial to them.
