What Is the Denture Process?
When you come for your appointment at MINT dentistry, you will be taken to one of our well-appointed treatment rooms to relax in a massaging treatment chair. We'll offer you the option of watching a television show or listening to your favorite music through a pair of Beats headphones. After sliding on a pair of our MINT dentistry sunglasses, the process will begin. When applicable, your dentist may extract teeth and then take the oral impressions needed to craft your custom dentures. Partial dentures will be shaded to match your remaining teeth for a seamless appearance. After your custom dentures are fabricated in a professional dental lab, your dentist will adjust the fit so they are comfortable, secure, and look natural. Your dentist will also go over the best way to take care of your new dentures.
How to Care for Your Dentures
Although it may take a few days to adjust before your new dentures feel natural, you should notice that it is easier to eat and speak. If you feel like your dentures are loose, speak to your dentist so they can be adjusted for a better fit. At home, you will need to brush your dentures at least twice a day. When you remove your dentures, you should soak them in water so they do not dry out.
