Partials and Full Dentures in Brantford, ON

Candidates for Dentures

Did you know that around one quarter of adults over the age of 65 are missing all their teeth? Dentures are a common and reliable solution for tooth loss. They are so natural looking and dependable that you may have spoken to someone wearing them without realizing it.

You may be a good candidate for dentures if you:

• Wish to replace several or all of your teeth.
  
• Do not smoke or use tobacco products.
  
• Have a healthy jawbone (we can assist with this).
  
• Do not suffer from chronic dry mouth.
  
• Are prepared to take good care of your dentures at home.

Continue visiting the dentist for regular exams, just as you would with natural teeth.

Caring for Your Dentures

Even with well fitting dentures, it’s important to maintain regular check ups. During your visit, we’ll examine your dentures for fit and condition, as well as check your gums, tongue, jaw, and overall oral health.

At home denture care tips:

• Remove dentures overnight to rest your mouth.
  
• Soak dentures in warm water, with or without a denture cleanser.
  
• Never soak dentures with metal clasps in anything but warm water.
  
• Keep dentures in water when not wearing them to prevent drying and warping.
  
• Avoid hot water to prevent damage.
  
• With dentures removed, clean and massage your gums.
  
• If brushing is uncomfortable, use warm water on your toothbrush or a clean, damp cloth.
  
• If you have partial dentures, continue brushing your natural teeth as usual.
