Hey there! That’s a really common concern, and I had the same questions when helping my mom choose her first dentures. The good news is that modern acrylic dentures have come a long way in terms of aesthetics. A skilled dental lab can match the shade and translucency of your natural teeth quite well, and the gum portion can be tinted to mimic real gum tissue. As for discoloration, yes—it can happen over time, especially with foods and drinks that stain—but if you maintain good oral hygiene and soak them in a proper denture cleanser regularly, they stay looking fresh for years.
