Introduction to Removable Dentures and Partials
Removable dentures and partials are a traditional and time-tested solution for replacing missing teeth. At Brush and Restore, we understand the importance of a complete smile for both aesthetics and functionality. Our custom-designed dentures and partials are crafted to provide comfort, a natural appearance, and restore the full function of your mouth.
The Role of Dentures and Partials in Restorative Dentistry
Dentures and partials play a vital role in restorative dentistry by replacing missing teeth. Full dentures are used when all teeth are missing, while partial dentures are suitable when some natural teeth remain.
These solutions not only improve your ability to chew and speak but also prevent facial muscles from sagging, preserving your facial structure.
Customization for Comfort and Aesthetics
The process of creating dentures and partials at Brush and Restore is highly personalized.
We take detailed impressions of your mouth to ensure a precise fit. Our focus is on creating dentures that not only fit comfortably but also look as natural as possible, enhancing your smile and facial aesthetics.
Types of Removable Dentures and Partials
- Full Dentures: Replace all teeth in the upper or lower jaw, resting on the gums.
- Partial Dentures: Consist of replacement teeth attached to a gum-colored plastic base, connected by a metal framework that holds the denture in place in the mouth.
- Immediate Dentures: Placed immediately after teeth removal, offering the benefit of never having to be without teeth during the healing period.
The Process of Getting Dentures and Partials
- Initial Consultation and Impressions: We start with a thorough examination and take impressions of your jaw and remaining teeth.
- Trial Fittings: Before the final denture or partial is created, trial fittings are conducted to ensure comfort and proper fit.
- Final Adjustments and Fitting: The final denture or partial is adjusted for a perfect fit and comfort.
Caring for Your Dentures and Partials
Proper care is essential to extend the life of your dentures and partials. This includes regular cleaning, handling them with care to avoid damage, and soaking them overnight. Regular dental check-ups are also important to adjust the fit over time and to examine your oral health.
Loose Teeth
If your teeth begin feeling a little loose, don’t worry; this is normal! Your braces must first loosen your teeth to move them into the right position. Once your teeth have been repositioned, they will no longer be loose.
Playing Sports
with Braces
Game, Set, Match — we have great news for athletes! You can still play sports even while undergoing orthodontic treatment! If you do play sports, it’s recommended that you wear a mouthguard to protect your teeth and your appliance. Let your doctor know if you need help finding the right mouthguard for the best protection.
In case of a sports emergency, be sure to immediately check your mouth and appliance for damage. If you notice any loose teeth or appliance damage, please contact our office right away. You can temporarily relieve the discomfort by applying wax or rinsing your mouth with warm saltwater.
Take Care Of Your Appliances
Damaged appliances can increase the length of your treatment process, so be sure to take care of all your appliances. Your teeth and jaw can only move into their correct positions if you consistently wear the rubber bands, headgear, retainer, or other appliances prescribed by your doctor.
Loose Wires And Bands
The wires and bands on your braces may come loose. If this happens, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can check and repair your appliance. If any piece of your appliance comes off, be sure to save it and bring it to the office with you.
You can temporarily fix the loose wire by using the back of a spoon or the eraser end of a pencil to carefully and gently push the wire back into place. If the loose wire is causing irritation to your lips or cheeks, put wax or a wet cotton ball over the broken wire to relieve the pain.
