Frequently Asked Questions
Dental bridges can restore gaps from one to three missing teeth. For more extensive tooth loss, dental implants are an option, though they come with a higher initial cost and certain health requirements.
With proper care, dentures typically last five to ten years. Over time, your mouth may change, and you may need a new set for a better fit.
While it is okay, it is recommended to remove dentures at night. Soak them to clean and give your gums and jaw a chance to rest.
Top dentures should suction to your gums. Bottom dentures float but stay in place. Partial dentures should align with natural teeth. Implant supported dentures snap into place. If you have fit concerns, book an appointment for adjustments.
Once adjusted, you can eat most foods, but avoid sticky or hard foods like caramel, tough meats, or popcorn, which may irritate your dentures.
