Do You Have Dentures, Here is What You Need to Know


Posted on 7/10/2023 by Dr. Dani Stansell
Do You Have Dentures, Here is What You Need to KnowOur dental health is vital and we need to ensure that we maintain it at all times. Once in a while, we lose our teeth due to several reasons like trauma, tooth decay-causing gum disease, and other problems associated with poor dental hygiene. The dentist determines what treatment option is good for our teeth and dentures are one of the treatment options. Dentures are removable implants that are worn by the patient to act like normal teeth after tooth loss.

Brushing and Flossing


Having dentures does not mean that we fail to brush and floss our teeth. Dentures are made in a way that they look like natural teeth. They should be properly taken care of so that they do not cause more harm to the mouth. Cleaning of the dentures is done often and flossing is important too to ensure that the mouth is safe from the bacteria that might cause tooth decay. You can also soak your dentures in mouthwash to keep bacteria at bay.

Repair


The prosthodontist repairs the broken dentures in a professional way, do not try repairing the dentures for you might cause more damage to them. The dentures can be uncomfortable and can make chewing hectic if fixed in the wrong way. Make sure that you tell our dentists if you notice any change in the way your dentures look like. At times you might find that the denture fits snugly against the gums this is an indication that you need a new one.

Our dentist will help you in repairing the dentures or fit you in new dentures. If you require new dentures our dentists will get you fit for a new set of dentures after examining how your oral health is.
