Dentures

► Dentures
Ditch ill-fitting dentures with new ones that are even
more natural, functional and comfortable.
These are not your mother's dentures. New materials can be
custom blended to your skin, hair and eye color to look as if
you were born with perfect teeth. Dentures can also be
replaced or relined to correct problems with aging jaws so you
can chew without discomfort again.
With so many advances in modern dentistry, fewer people need
to wear full dentures. If you have older dentures or think you
may need dentures, you're in luck. Denture technology has
never been better.
As people age, dentures can cause wearers to look older than
they really are and can cause pain when chewing. We can
replace worn out dentures with custom made, state-of-the-art
dentures that blend with your skin, hair and even eye color.
Your dentures will look as natural as possible, even down to
the fillings.
Before going to the plastic surgeon, get a "face lift" with
comfortable, attractive dentures.

► Denture Problems
Many denture wearers breathe a sigh of relief when they
get their first pair of dentures, because they think their
dental problems are over. What they soon realize, however, is
that have just traded some old problems for new ones.
Even the best dentures can't compete with natural teeth in
ability to chew food efficiently and comfortably. As the years
go by, the supporting ridges that remain after teeth have been
removed gradually change and get smaller.
For most patients, the dentures need to be "relined" or
"refitted" every 2-4 years so that the denture will conform to
the changing ridge. A large change in weight can also alter
the shape of the mouth, causing changes in the fit.
