A new denture: when is it the best solution?
Losing teeth can have various causes, such as ageing, tooth decay or an accident. It can have a major impact on your life, both physically and emotionally. It can leave you unable to eat, speak or smile properly. Fortunately there are good solutions today for replacing missing teeth, one of which is a denture.
How does a denture work?
A denture is a removable prosthesis made from acrylic resin and sometimes metal. It is made to measure and so fits your mouth perfectly. It consists of a pink section that rests on the gums, with artificial teeth attached to it. A denture can be made for the upper jaw, the lower jaw, or both.
At Dental House Zierikzee we aim to make every procedure more efficient, more accurate and less invasive. Thanks to advanced technology such as 3D scans and digital design, we can make and adjust your denture for a perfect fit. That way you can eat, speak and smile with confidence again.
When is a denture the best solution?
A denture can be the best solution when you are missing several teeth, or when your teeth are in poor condition. It can also help if you have gum problems or a condition such as periodontitis. In addition, a denture can be a good option for people who cannot undergo other treatments, for example because of health issues.
Our team of experienced dentists and prosthetists can advise you on the options and help you decide together whether a denture is the best solution for your situation.
Tips for wearing a denture
Once your denture is ready, it is important to get used to wearing it. Our experienced dental hygienists are happy to give you tips on wearing and caring for your new denture, so that it lasts as long as possible and stays comfortable.
- Start with soft foods and chew slowly and evenly.
- Keep your denture clean by brushing it daily with a dedicated denture brush.
- Take your denture out at night to give your gums a rest.
- Contact our practice if you experience irritation or pain.
Following these tips will help keep your denture in place and minimise any discomfort.
