Dentures Q&A
What are dentures?
Dentures are removable tooth prosthetics that look and function just like your natural teeth. A denture is made of durable materials that form the teeth that attach to flesh-colored gums. The device stays in place by fitting over your gums and covers the roof of your mouth.
Radiant Smiles Dental Care offers complete dentures to replace all of your natural teeth. Dr. Hoang can also provide you with a partial denture if you’re missing only a few teeth.
Am I a candidate for dentures?
Dentures might be an option for you if you’re missing teeth but aren’t a candidate for dental implants. You may also choose dentures if you’re looking for a budget-friendly way to replace missing teeth.
Dr. Hoang offers a comprehensive assessment of your oral health to determine if dentures are the right treatment option for you. He can customize a fitting for dentures to address your unique needs.
What can I expect during a denture fitting?
Radiant Smiles Dental Care offers advanced digital dentures that last longer than traditional dentures. This type of denture is made of a very hard resin and comes from a solid block that a technician mills out to create your denture.
To ensure a good fit for the denture, Dr. Hoang must prepare your gums. This might include extracting damaged or decayed teeth.
After you heal, Dr. Hoang takes an impression of your gums and the bones beneath to fabricate your partial or complete denture. When they’re ready, he checks the fit of the denture over your gums, so you can start wearing them daily.
How long does it take to adjust to wearing dentures?
The first few weeks with your new dentures require an adjustment period. It takes time to adapt to how the dentures feel in your mouth. You also need to learn how to use your tongue and cheek muscles to keep your dentures in place.
It’s normal to experience some mild irritation or soreness in your gums during the first few days or weeks. As you get accustomed to your dentures, you should be able to speak and chew food without difficulty.
Dr. Hoang provides resources to help you keep your dentures clean and in good condition. He also recommends when you need to schedule routine follow-up appointments to evaluate your oral health.
