If you've lost all of your natural teeth, complete dentures can replace these missing teeth and give you your smile back. Dentures are a good solution whether you are missing teeth from periodontal disease, tooth decay or an injury.
Replacing missing teeth benefits your appearance and health, as well as your self-confidence. Without support from the denture, your facial muscles may begin to sag, making you look older than you are. With dentures, you'll be able to eat and speak with confidence.
Old dentures need to be replaced on a regular basis because of wear and / or breakage and also because of loose fit due to changes in the supporting bone over time.
Most new complete dentures are inserted as soon as the remaining teeth are removed. Here, Dr. White records your jaw position and makes models of your jaw and teeth during a preliminary visit. A major benefit of immediate dentures is that you do not have to live without teeth while your gums heal.
Even with full dentures, you need to exercise good oral care. You must still brush your gums, tongue and palate every morning before you insert your dentures, as well as doing the same at night when you remove your dentures.
