What Happens When I Lose A Tooth?
The loss of a tooth, for whatever reason, can have a significant effect on your self-esteem
, confidence and facial appearance not to mention the rest of your mouth.Within our dental practice, we understand that losing a tooth can be a traumatizing experience. Our teeth play an essential role in our lives and a missing tooth can interrupt your dietary and oral hygiene habits. Dentures can help recapture your oral health after tooth loss as well as heighten the aesthetic appearance of your smile.
One of the most popular replacement products available to date; Dentures can help you capture the essence of your smile. A Denture is essentially a removable fake tooth, custom made to your individual oral situation. Dentures heighten support and stability within the mouth as well as increasing biting pressure.
Dentures require the same amount of love and care as natural teeth. If you properly maintain your Dentures, they may last for up to twenty years. It is essential that you remove your Denture each day and brush thoroughly with a toothbrush and toothpaste. Utilize toothpaste recommended for Dentures (avoiding harsh abrasive cleaners). Other Denture care steps we recommend include:
