Learn More About How Dentures Can Change Your Life
Are you struggling with your oral health and are unsure what treatment is needed to restore the function of your teeth? Dealing with decay and tooth loss can be a struggle due the appearance of the teeth as well as difficulty chewing properly. If you are missing teeth, dentures can be an affordable option to restore your oral health. Dentures can help patients look and feel younger. The dentures that we are able to provide to patients today are nothing like the dentures you may have heard of from family members who had them in the past. As you can see from the before and after pictures of our patient, his results are truly remarkable. You would never know he was wearing dentures!
What are Dentures?
If you are unfamiliar, dentures are custom made to look like natural gum tissue. The replacement teeth are typically made from resin or porcelain. Dentures can be used to replace an entire arch of teeth or partial dentures can be made to replace a few missing teeth. If your mouth changes, you may need adjustments to your dentures to ensure a perfect fit.
Caring For Your Dentures
Just as your teeth need to be cleaned daily, your dentures do as well. When dentures are cared for properly, they can last for many years. Removable dentures allow proper cleaning. Be sure to brush your dentures gently to remove any lingering debris and bacteria. Effervescent cleaners are also available to add to the water while they are being stored. Dentures need to be kept in a container of water when not in your mouth to be sure they do not become dry or damaged.
