They are the most economical replacement approach, and they come with substantial benefits for their price.
However, if you have never worn dentures (full or partial), before, you may wonder what they are, what they do, what is the process to get them, how they should be taken care of, and what can you expect if you get them?
Sachdeva Dental is here to answer all your questions with our ultimate guide to new dentures.
Dentures not only restore the appearance of your smile, the function of chewing, and protect against damage to other teeth but they also provide support to your cheek and lips, and correct the appearance of a sagging or collapsed face.
Here is a short list of what dentures offer:
Getting dentures normally takes between two and four dental appointments.
The first appointment is for consultation and recommendation. In the case that you have existing teeth that cannot be saved, extraction of those teeth will be necessary.
Your dentist will take impressions of your remaining teeth and send them to a dental laboratory, which will manufacture a custom tray designed to get an even more precise mould of your teeth. This mould is used to construct your dentures.
When the dentures are manufactured, they are then fitted and assessed for comfort and fit. Finally, you will be given instructions on their use and care.
Conventional dentures from your Wantirna dentist are removable. They are constructed of teeth and gum-like materials designed to be worn on top of the gums.
Today, however, more structurally sound options exist with the use of dental implants, which help create stronger fortifications for the placement of full or partial dentures. Which type of denture is best for you is best determined by consultation with your dentist.
Once your denture is in place, it may feel strange. This is entirely normal, and your mouth, tongue and facial muscles will adapt. Everyday tasks such as speaking and eating may require a bit of initial adjustment, but your dentist can advise you on products that will help you feel more confident while wearing dentures.
It may only take a few months from your first appointment to the day where you’ll feel entirely at ease with your dentures. Once you’re fully fitted with your new dentures, you are ready to enjoy life to the full, with a restored smile, restored chewing ability, and support for your face that might make you look years younger…
Here is a brief overview of what you can expect in the first month after receiving your dentures.
