What are dentures made of?

They are generally made of acrylic resin, porcelain, plastic, or metal. Out of these materials, acrylic dentures tend to be stronger as they adhere more securely to the denture base. When you come into our office for full or partial dentures in Broken Arrow, Dr. Holleman and our team will work with you to create a custom set out of material that works best for your teeth and gums while making sure they look natural.

Are dentures permanent?

You can select from permanent or removable dentures. Removable ones are held in place through suction effect or with an adhesive. Permanent ones are typically held in place by surgically-placed dental implants. Permanent ones cannot be removed and are usually used for patients seeking to restore an entire arch. Whether you choose removable or permanent dentures, we custom create each to fit comfortably in place.

FAQs

What are the benefits of implant-supported dentures over traditional dentures?

Implant-supported dentures offer enhanced stability, comfort, and functionality compared to traditional dentures. Secured by dental implants, they are less likely to slip, improving speech and chewing efficiency. These dentures also help preserve jawbone health, preventing the bone loss that typically occurs as a result of missing teeth. Additionally, implant-supported dentures provide a more natural look and feel, boosting confidence. With proper care, implant-supported dentures tend to be longer-lasting and more durable than traditional options, making them a worthwhile investment in oral health and quality of life.

How long do dentures last?

The lifespan of custom dentures depends on many factors, like what they’re made of and how they’re cared for, but the average lifespan typically ranges from 5 to 10 years. Over time, changes in the mouth, such as gum and bone resorption, may alter the custom fit, requiring adjustments or replacement. Proper care, including daily cleaning and regular dental checkups, can extend their usability. However, wear and tear from daily use can lead to cracking, discoloration, or loss of function, signaling it’s time for a new set of dentures.

How do I care for my dentures?

Proper denture care involves daily cleaning and handling them with care. Remove and rinse your dentures after eating to wash away food particles. Use a soft-bristle brush and non-abrasive denture cleaner to clean your oral appliance daily. Do not use regular toothpaste, as it can be too harsh. Soak your dentures in a denture solution overnight to ensure they maintain their shape. Avoid exposing them to hot water, which can warp the material. Regular dental visits are essential to check their fit and condition, ensuring they remain functional and comfortable.
