Denture


 

A denture (also known as  “false teeth” ) is  a prosthetic  appliance that is worn to replace missing teeth. They  can be taken out  and put back into your mouth when needed.

 

At Smiles Dental Lab we fabricate two types of dentures.

 

  1. Full  Denture   usually  for seniors that replaces all  natural teeth.

 

  1. Partial Denture  fits around some of the remaining teeth and the unit is held in place in the mouth by clasps or metal clips

 

Our dentist will help you choose the type of denture that’s best for you .

 

Denture Care

 

  1. Dentures can break, so  use full sink of water, then clean your dentures over the sink to avoid a slip out of your hands and breaking it.

 

  1. Rinse your dentures thoroughly to remove loose food particles. Use cool or warm water. But never use hot water – it can warp your dentures. Brush all surfaces thoroughly.

While you sleep at night, soak your dentures in a cleanser.
