Dentures
Dentures are a time-tested, reliable solution for missing teeth. When you’re missing several teeth, the other teeth in your mouth can shift and become misaligned, affecting the functionality and aesthetics of your smile. This can also cause trouble with speaking, biting, and chewing.
What Are Dentures?
Dentures can be made to replace a full set of teeth, or only a few. The denture itself is made up of artificial teeth fitted onto an acrylic gum, which is placed over your real gums. Dentures are removable and should be cleaned daily.
Caring For Your Dentures
Just like regular teeth, dentures need to be cleaned daily. When you take them out at night, you can brush them with a toothbrush and a mild soap or denture cleaner. Be sure not to use regular toothpaste when cleaning dentures. You may also choose to soak your dentures in a denture cleaner overnight.
