DENTURES FAQ
Most frequent questions and answers
If you take proper care of your dentures they will last longer and fit better. To take care of them, please include the following in your daily care:
- Clean your dentures every day. Brush them the same way you would brush your teeth but without the toothpaste. Instead, use a soft-bristle brush that is designed specifically for dentures and water to brush all of the surfaces of your dentures. Make sure you don’t bend any attachments. Rinse your dentures with water after every meal. You can soak your dentures in a special denture soaking solution but that is not a substitute for the brushing you need to do to remove plaque.
- Treat your dentures gently. When you handle your dentures make sure to not let them fall into the sink. When you soak them, use cool water or a denture cleaning solution so that they don’t dry out.
- Remove your dentures, either full or partial, every night so that your gum tissue beneath the dentures can rest.
When your teeth are missing it is difficult to speak. You may have changed your speech patterns to compensate for your missing teeth. Now that you have dentures you may have to relearn how to pronounce certain words with your new dentures. You can practice speaking by reading out loud or repeating the words you have had some difficulty with.

You will, over time, need to have your dentures adjusted. The reason for this is that you are aging and the bone and ridges of your gums can recede or shrink causing your denture to become loose and ill-fitting. Without an adjustment you can develop sores or infections, your dentures may break, chip or crack. Don’t let this happen to you. If you have dentures that aren’t fitting properly, contact us today to make an appointment.
There is no set fee for dentures because there are so many factors we have to take into consideration including the complexity of your dental situation and the time it is going to take for your treatment.
