Burp If You Have Dentures

There's a connection between false teeth and gas

(HealthDayNews) -- Can false teeth make you belch? Okay, you got that one right, but can you explain how?

According to the journal Family Practice, people with badly fitting false teeth salivate more than other people. People who salivate more have to swallow more. And the more times you swallow, the more air you're likely to swallow, leading to gas accumulation in your stomach.
