Candidates For Dentures

Were you aware that approximately 25% of adults aged 65 and older have lost all their teeth? Dentures offer a common and reputable solution for those missing teeth, providing a dependable and natural-looking option that often goes unnoticed by others. Are you wondering if dentures might be a suitable choice for you?

To determine if you’re a good candidate for this restorative treatment, consider the following criteria:

  • Express a desire to replace multiple or all of your teeth.
  • Be a non-smoker or refrain from using tobacco products.
  • Possess a healthy jawbone (we can assist with this!).
  • Not suffer from dry mouth.
  • Be willing to maintain proper denture care at home.
  • Commit to regular dental check-ups ā€“ just as you would for natural teeth!

How should you go about caring for your dentures? Ensure their longevity through routine cleanings and examinations. Even individuals with flawless prosthetics should periodically visit their dentist. During these appointments, we will evaluate the fit of your dentures and conduct comprehensive assessments of your gums, tongue, jaw, and overall oral health. In summary, we prioritize your oral well-being, not just your teeth.

To care for your dentures at home, follow these guidelines:

  • Remove your dentures overnight to allow your mouth to rest.
  • Soak your dentures in warm water, either with or without denture cleanser.
  • Avoid soaking dentures with metal clasps in anything other than warm water.
  • When not wearing your dentures, store them in water to prevent drying and warping. Do not use hot water for soaking.
  • With your dentures removed, clean and gently massage your gums.
  • If your toothbrush causes discomfort to your gums, rinse it under warm water or consider using a finger wrapped in a clean, damp cloth.
  • If you have partial dentures, continue to brush your natural teeth as usual.

The Cost Of A Denture In Tottenham

The cost of dentures can vary significantly, typically ranging from around $900 to $3,500 or even more, depending on several key factors. These factors include:

  1. The type of denture required.
  2. Necessary dental extractions or preparatory procedures.
  3. The need for X-rays.
  4. The inclusion of supportive implants.

For instance, full-mouth dentures can cost anywhere from $1,800 to $3,500 and beyond, while a complete set of implant-supported dentures might have an approximate ballpark cost of $30,000.

To determine the precise cost for your specific situation, it is crucial to consult with a dentist and undergo an oral examination. This evaluation will allow the dentist to assess your unique needs and present you with various treatment options. Subsequently, they can provide you with a more accurate and tailored cost estimate. We are here to assist you in obtaining the information you need.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dental bridges are an ideal option for rectifying gaps caused by the absence of 1 to 3 teeth, while dental implants can address any quantity of missing teeth. Keep in mind that dental implants often require a higher initial financial commitment and specific health criteria to qualify for treatment.

With regular care and maintenance, your dentures can serve you well for a period ranging from 5 to 10 years. Additionally, as your mouth undergoes natural changes over time, you may find it necessary to opt for a completely new set due to the wear and tear on the dentures.

While wearing dentures during sleep is an option, it’s not the recommended practice. It’s a good idea to establish the routine of taking them out at night for soaking to ensure proper cleaning of your mouth, gums, and any remaining natural teeth, as well as to provide a rest period for your gums and jaw.

Upper dentures should adhere securely to your gums, while lower dentures should rest comfortably above your gums, staying firmly in place. Partial dentures should align well with your natural teeth, minimizing any shifting. Implant-supported dentures snap securely into position for stability. If you have any concerns about the fit of your dentures, please don’t hesitate to reach out and schedule an appointment. We’ll assess your fit and make necessary adjustments.

After a period of adjustment to your dentures, you should have the ability to eat almost anything comfortably. Nevertheless, it’s important to be aware of certain foods that can be challenging for denture wearers or may lead to discomfort. Foods that are hard or sticky, such as caramel, carrot sticks, or tough meat cuts, as well as those containing small particles like popcorn or seeded crackers, may be best enjoyed occasionally rather than regularly.

I switched to T. Smiles Dental after my previous office was bought out by a corporation and the service went downhill. I have had both Dr. Singh and Dr. Habib and they are both so lovely and make you feel like you're in good hands. Crystal, the hygienist, is quick, thorough, and very easy to pass the hour appointment with. I think the best part about switching is that I trust the opinions I'm getting and I never feel like I'm being over-sold unnecessary treatments, which is a big deal for me. A well-earned 5 stars!
