Missing teeth are replaced in many ways, and dentures are the most common removable replacement. When the full set of teeth is missing, we need complete dentures. Partial dentures are used when more than one but not all teeth are missing. There are also implant-supported dentures held in place by dental implants. These provide a more secure fit and can help prevent bone loss in the jaw. Our team of experts can help you determine which type of denture is best for you based on your specific needs and oral health.
Wearing dentures may feel strange in the initial days. The first few days are an adjustment period and require a lot of practice and patience. The denture might feel tight initially, and you may have difficulty eating and speaking. Wearing them for longer days is advisable to get used to the prosthesis. It is expected to take some time to get used to the new prosthesis as the tongue tends to dislodge it initially. Use the dentures for the maximum period for better results. Do not use the dentures if there is any pain or discomfort while wearing them.
The first step is the careful clinical examination of the mouth, during which our experts at Healthy Smiles Dental Clinic Ahmedabad examine the remaining teeth and the surrounding structures. We understand that each patient’s needs are different, and we strive to provide the best possible care.

In the initial days, you might find it a little difficult to get used to the dentures. The new prosthesis takes time to get comfortable with.

Ensure you clean all the denture surfaces, including the gums and the roof of your mouth. Rinse your mouth before putting the dentures back. Clean your dentures with a soft brush and do not use the regular paste as it may abrade the surface.
It is always advisable to soak the dentures in a denture-cleaning solution before cleaning them. The duration of the soak varies depending on the strength of the cleansing solution.
Scheduling regular appointments with us at Healthy Smiles Dental Clinic Ahmedabad is crucial for maintaining your oral health. We conduct comprehensive dental checkups to ensure that your denture fits well and to look for early signs of ulcerations or changes.
