Q:
How long will it take to repair my dentures?
A:
Most of our denture repairs are conducted while you wait. Depending on the severity of your broken dentures we might require a few more hours to correct the problem.
Q:
How should I clean my dentures?
A:
Several brands of denture cleaners are available in the market. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch your denture’s surface. Some denture cleaners can even make stains stick to your dentures. If you aren’t sure what denture cleaner is best for you, just ask us.
Q:
How frequently should I take out my dentures?
A:
Give your mouth a rest from time to time by taking out your dentures at night or at least two hours during the day.
Q:
I have a CPAP machine but I can’t wear it. Are there alternative options?
A:
Yes! Dental Sleep Medicine provides options such as an Oral Sleep Appliance or combination therapy which can dramatically increase treatment success.
Q:
When I receive my new dentures will I have to continue to use adhesive?
A:
Not usually. Most of the time new dentures can restore the poor fit and function of an old ill-fitting or worn out set. Occasionally, due to anatomical obstacles or extreme recession of the oral ridges, some secondary retention might be necessary, such as adhesive or some consideration towards implants.
