Who Is a Candidate for Dentures?

Some people may need dentures after losing a tooth or having one extracted. Dentures can also be a more affordable way to replace missing teeth. It’s worth knowing that dentures aren’t as strong as natural teeth, so they may be a less preferred option for some patients compared with alternatives like implants or bridges – though they remain a more economical choice. Your dentist can talk you through which option best suits your situation.

The Impact of Untreated Tooth Loss

Missing teeth can affect more than appearance. Over time, they may:

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to get dentures?

The timeline for denture fabrication varies, but the process typically involves a few weeks. Initial consultations, measurements, and fittings ensure your dentures are comfortable and customised to your unique oral anatomy.

Are dentures comfortable to wear?

Yes, dentures are crafted to restore chewing function. While there may be an adjustment period, most individuals adapt well and can enjoy a varied diet with adequately fitted dentures.

Can I eat normally with dentures?

The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia, minimising discomfort. Patients may experience mild soreness during healing, but our team ensures your comfort.

Are dentures covered by dental insurance?

Dental insurance often covers dentures, especially when necessary for oral health. We can assist in verifying your insurance coverage and explore financing options to make your denture treatment accessible and affordable.

How long will they last?

Dentures should last for many years though they may need a regular adjustment every few months, to begin with. As you become more acclimated to using them, full dentures may need relining, which is placing a cover on the resin. So the dentures fit more comfortably, a relining may be needed every 3, 6 or 12 months, depending on your circumstances.

How do I take care of my dentures?

When we provide you with a new denture we also will give you a pack with some cleaning materials and a special cleaning brush which is different from a toothbrush. Cleaning materials are in the form of a tablet that dissolves in water and disinfects the denture in the solution in a little container we give you.

Should I come in to get my dentures checked periodically?

Yes, when you come in every few months, your dentist will polish them to keep them looking good and feeling good when you wear them.

Any invasive or surgical procedure may carry risks. Before moving forward, it is recommended that you seek a second opinion from an
appropriately licensed medical professional.
