Full Dentures at Cornerstone Dentistry: Restoring Your Smile and Confidence
At Cornerstone Dentistry, we understand the impact of missing teeth on your daily life. That’s why we offer full dentures to help restore your smile, improve your oral health, and regain your confidence.
Our skilled team of dental professionals is dedicated to providing personalized care and ensuring your comfort throughout the entire process.
What Is The Process Of Full Dentures?
The process of getting full dentures involves several steps to ensure a customized and comfortable fit. Here’s an overview of the typical process:
- Initial consultation: During your first visit, our dentist will examine your oral health, take impressions of your mouth, and discuss your goals and expectations. This information will be used to create a personalized treatment plan.
- Tooth extraction (if necessary): If you have remaining natural teeth that need to be extracted, our dentist will perform the procedure with utmost care and ensure your comfort. Healing time may be required before moving forward.
- Impressions and measurements: Precise impressions and measurements of your mouth will be taken to create dentures that fit securely and comfortably. These molds will be used to create custom dentures that match the shape and color of your natural teeth.
- Trial and adjustments: Once your dentures are ready, you will come in for a fitting. Our dentist will ensure that your dentures fit properly, make any necessary adjustments, and provide instructions on how to care for them.
- Final placement: After any adjustments, your dentures will be securely placed in your mouth. Our dentist will ensure that they fit well, feel comfortable, and provide you with guidance on how to adapt to wearing dentures.
How To Care For Dentures
Proper care and maintenance of your dentures are crucial for their longevity and your oral health. Here are some essential care tips:
- Daily cleaning: Remove your dentures and clean them thoroughly using a soft-bristle toothbrush and denture cleaner or mild soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that can damage the denture material.
- Oral hygiene: Clean your gums, tongue, and palate with a soft-bristle brush or a moist cloth to remove bacteria and maintain oral health.
- Soaking: When you’re not wearing your dentures, soak them in a denture-cleansing solution or water to keep them moist and prevent warping.
- Handle with care: Dentures are delicate, so handle them with care to avoid dropping or bending them. Place a towel or basin of water in the sink when cleaning them to prevent damage if they fall.
- Regular check-ups: Visit your dentist regularly for check-ups and professional cleanings. They can inspect your dentures for any signs of damage or wear and make necessary adjustments.
