Dentures are removable replacements for missing teeth and allow for comfortable talking, eating, and smiling. They can be made in a similar shape and size to your real teeth, so your smile looks and feels natural. False teeth also prevent your facial muscles from sagging by replacing vital structure and support to round out your profile.
This full, removable set of false teeth is fitted in the mouth once the remaining natural teeth have been removed and the jaw allowed time to heal.
Removable false teeth are fitted on the same day as the remaining natural teeth are removed. The false teeth may need to be relined or remade once the jaw has fully healed some months later.
Fixed full arches of false teeth can be supported by dental implants – a great alternative to traditional removable options. Implants and temporary false teeth can be fitted in the same appointment. A healing period of roughly six months must pass before you receive a permanent set of teeth.
Your new teeth are likely to feel strange at first. You may experience slight irritation, tenderness, and increased saliva flow. These side effects should pass as your mouth adjusts.
You will need to attend regular checkups to monitor the success of your false teeth. If they become uncomfortable, ill-fitting, or damaged, contact your dentist in CH8 for denture repair.
Keep your false teeth in good condition by brushing daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush to remove plaque and debris. Each morning before you insert your false teeth, brush your gums, tongue and roof of your mouth to stimulate circulation and remove plaque. When not in use, place your false teeth in a cup of water to prevent them from warping.
