The Process

The Denture Solution Process

To ensure a tailored fit and natural appearance, obtaining dentures involves a series of appointments at our Novi, MI office, typically spanning several weeks. We begin by taking precise impressions and measurements of your mouth, serving as the foundation for crafting your custom dental denture. Multiple “try-in” appointments are conducted throughout the process to fine-tune the denture’s shape, color, and fit.

Your dentist adjusts and securely places the completed denture at the final appointment, achieving a natural look and comfortable fit. It’s common to experience increased saliva flow, initial soreness, and potential speech and chewing difficulties as your muscles and tissues adapt to the new dentures. Over time, these challenges will subside. Proper cleaning, good oral hygiene practices, and regular dental check-ups will help prolong the life of your dentures, ensuring they continue to serve you effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dentures FAQs

What are dentures made of?

Dentures come in different types, and their material composition depends on your chosen style. There are three common materials used for crafting dentures:

Acrylic is a rigid resin material commonly used for dentures. It features a pink shade for the base and gum area, while the replacement teeth are designed to resemble a more natural tooth color. Metal, which often contains cobalt or chrome, is frequently used for the base of dentures.

Flexible partial dentures are crafted from a pliable plastic material known as thermoplastic, designed to fit snugly in your mouth for added comfort and flexibility.

How do you clean dentures?

Regular care for your dentures is crucial to prevent food particles and bacteria buildup, which can lead to decay and gum disease in your remaining teeth. To keep them clean, use a denture brush and denture paste along with a denture cleaner. When not in use, store your dentures in a denture bath. Avoid using abrasive substances like toothpaste, as they may harm your dentures.

How long do dentures last?

Dentures will last multiple years with routine checks of supporting gums and teeth, relines, and minor adjustments.
